Needed: a small pretty evening bag!

I want to buy DD one, but can’t seem to find the right sort of thing! She wants something small, probably black, it doesn’t have to have a long strap (or could be a wrist strap/clutch) but if it does, not a metal chain strap, not a solid/boxy style. Something pretty, maybe with beading/feathers/stars or something but not blingy!

I’m struggling!

I'd be keeping an eye on charity shops. I have a rather pretty "knitted" gold thread bag on an enamelled frame which belonged to a relative, but you could get lucky.

Thank you, @XingMing I have been looking in charity shops actually, but haven’t yet found anything!

Have you tried Etsy? There are some really pretty ones on there. Lots of the prettier ones seem to have chain straps, maybe get one with a chain and buying an alternative strap.
I had a non boxy vintage beaded clutch but things kept falling/ getting squeezed out as there was no structure to it so make sure it’s zipped if that’s the style you get

Tk Maxx is usually worth a rummage for bags.

These Tru bags have both wrist strap and long strap, lots of different colours and quality better than the price suggests
