Just because we love it!

Brittania Punk leather box clutch by Alexander McQueen, $1,495 Net-a-Porter.

Why we love it?

Seeing the Savage Beauty exhibit reaffirmed our love for Alexander McQueen's work. The Metropolitan Museum of Arts opened a window into the soul of the tortured artist. Like in the exhibit this clutch puts on display the opposition between light and darkness, good and evil, softness and hardness with McQueen's genius know-how. The gold accents make this clutch extra chic and can easily dress up any outfit. We highly recommend everyone to see more of McQueen's work at the Met. It is pure magic!

OMG moment: Alexander McQueen

The entire fashion community is in shock. We've lost one of fashion's greatest creative minds. Alexander McQueen was found dead in his London home this Thursday. It seems like the London based designer committed suicide, this only a few weeks after his mother's death (February 2, 2010).

This happened in one of the fashion industry's busiest times. His MCQ line which was scheduled to show in this week's New York Fashion Week had to be canceled. The 40 year old man was also supposed to present his always highly anticipated Autumn/Winter women's wear collection in Paris next month. But in McQueen's own twitter words: "life must go on!!!! " But it will be hard to replace you Alex. You will be missed. Hope you finally found peace. Love, Kelie
