One of my most complimented items in my wardrobe is my vintage straw clutch. It has a fun retro feel but pairs so well with modern clothing.
I found my clutch (shown in the picture inset below) by searching on Etsy. I tend to like a number of the same sort of thing, walk away and then make a choice from amongst my favourites.
Shop the vintage straw clutches from Etsy:
1. Vintage Floral Raffia Basket Purse
2. Vintage Floral Straw Clutch
3. Vintage Ethnic Floral Straw Clutch
4. Straw Clutch with Bright Coloured Canvas Details
5. Rainbow Retro Vintage Straw Clutch
6. Vintage Jamaica Raffia Envelope Clutch
7. Vintage Woven Clutch with bright straw flowers
If you are searching on Etsy for your own try searching the descriptors straw, raffia and even rattan which is actually more like a basket but sometimes you find the best things under less than perfect search terms.
Not into vintage? These options are brand new:

Hmm. Hard to pick a fave from the ones you've curated! I like your strategy of walking away and then coming back to pick one.

Yes it helps me identify what I think are the best of the bunch and then I can pick out my favourite. Sometimes one will sell out from under me but I guess that helps make the decision for me!
