There’s a holiday conundrum that we all face: after work parties call for something a little dressier than your daily tote, but you can’t carry a Judith Leiber minaudiere to the office every day (trust us on that). The solution? A medium sized clutch that’s got a little something extra so it look party ready without telling your coworkers that you’ve taken the walk of shame. You might have to edit your daily necessities just a bit — leave that iPad mini at home, ladies — but our picks will let you make the transition from work to play as smooth as possible. Go glam with a metallic or play with texture with a mixed-media bag or soft pebbled leather. With convertible straps and the perfect medium size, these picks are sure to get you through the holidays without a hitch.
