Charlotte Dellal’s eponymous line, Charlotte Olympia doesn’t just offer gorgeous heels, you can also grab one-of-a-kind purses from the label too.
Take for example, the luxe clear hardcase called the ‘Pandora’, which has been a perennial item in every Charlotte Olympia collection since its launch two years ago. The purse has already made quite an impression on fashionistas, thanks to its chameleon-like feature. In fact, Olivia Palermo was spotted wearing it again recently, while the socialite attended the 2012 Elle Style Awards held in Istanbul a few days ago:

Alone, the ‘Pandora’ is your typical transparent Perspex enamel minaudiere decorated with either a bamboo, floral, or animal-shaped metal clasp on top. But Dellal was genius enough to add something else with it – three mini zip-top fabric pouches in three different patterns/colors that you can insert into the purse at your discretion. That way, you basically get a clutch that literally changes faces – one to match whatever you’re wearing!

Charlotte Olympia Pandora Perspex Clutch, $925
Charlotte Olympia Surprise Pandora Perspex Clutch, $795
Suddenly, the clear clutch doesn’t look so boring anymore. In fact, it actually looks pretty cool, right?
If you like it, grabbing a clear Charlotte Olympia Pandora will set you back at least $895. You can find Olivia’s clutch at Neiman Marcus, while other variations of the purse (different clasp, different set of pouches) are available at Net-A-Porter.
On a side note, if you don’t want to spend that much on a tiny clutch, you can always opt for a little DIY. If you’re lucky enough to find a cheaper clear box clutch, simply grab it and insert a printed pouch small enough to fit in it.
