Interested in how to get that Chinoiserie look without going overboard on the Cheong Sams and Chopsticks? Think that maybe dressing head to toe in stuffy oriental silks and stacked wooden heels a la Marc Jacobs is taking it a step too far? The answer to all your sartorial questions is the Oroton Silk Road clutch, a mixture of vintage kimono silks, their trademark metal mesh and luxurious leathers. With faded burnt oranges and oily yellows, there is enough reference to the East without it being an overload on the costume drama. And I like that. I like that this clutch could work with a pair of chinos and a sweatshirt just as easily as a swingy dress. This one's going to be popular - already featured in vogue Australia April with a full page, deluxe spread, and now with a set of fantastic photos on the newly launched Oroton Blog that take you behind the scenes into this bag's fascinating production. Sorry internationals, this one's just for the Australians. You guys have your COS, and your Topshop and your Zara, but at least we still have Oroton. And, working at DJs - I get a staff discount. Wonderful!
