Today for the ‘12 Days of Indie Holiday Shopping’ I am featuring the clutches of Red Ruby Rose. Designed and created by Rowena Dugdale, a graduate of Edinburgh College of Art where she studied textiles. |
| Rowena creates her visually stunning clutches from a mix of textiles she creates as well as contemporary & vintage fabrics. Each one is lined in silk and the designs are limited edition, but custom orders are possible.I am such a big fan of Red Ruby Rose clutches, they remind me of old Hollywood glam and a time when ladies wore evening gloves. I certainly have never worn evening gloves, but I would love to carry one of Rowena’s clutches!I’m a little jealous to share that one of you lucky ducks can win your very own Red Ruby Rose Clutch (maximum value $75, plus free worldwide shipping)!

Ooh! I’ve been drooling over these clutches on Etsy!
Love the Sparkle pod design!
Okay, my second favorite (only by a slight margin is the Red Ruby Rose Original. Again, I love red!
These are all so incredibly beautiful that it’s hard to choose just one! But after much thought, I’d say the Ruby Rose Original is probably my favorite. (I really want them all)!
It is hard to chose, but I am picking Sparkle pod as well. LOve it!
Whoa. They’re all so pretty!
I couldn’t pick just one favorite so I’m going for two designs: Red trees and Bird on a wire.
Two swans – A Red Ruby Rose original silk-lined clutch bag is such a beautiful piece of work! Marvelous.
Not sure if my other comment went through, but I also love her mini starburst petals clutch.
Bird on a wire is a pretty & nice clutch. I’ll love to use that anytime!
Such a hard decision, but I think red pods is my favorite. Gorgeous stuff.
Sparkle pod is amazing! I love blue & the design is eye catching! Love her clutches.
I have 3 favorites- first is the fern and fronds
second favorite is the plum poppy
I also love the marbled green!
Wow! These things are gorgeous. I love the sparklepod. So simple and elegant.
The Fern and Fronds design is my favorite!

I love the Nostalgic peony and lily-of-the-valley silk-lined clutch bag. How beautiful.
They’re all fantastic … but I’m partial to her Starburst petals silk-lined clutch bag … love the graphic outside and bright inside.
Definently love “On the Wing”. The shape of a clutch as always seemed very formal to me, and combining it with a fabric that fun is fantastic. If only I were a bigger fan of pink.
I also like Seedheads- the fabric design is gorgeous and is set off so well by the clutch shape and matching lining.
wood for the trees!
bird on a wire!

Oh gosh! I love Sparkle Pod too!
Virtually impossible to pick a favorite! I really like the Silk starburst luxury clutch bag
Too many to choose from! I’m torn between Lily of the Valley and Aqua Pods. I would love to have this for my holiday parties.

The other one that really stands out for me is the coral poppy clutch…I guess I’m a flower child!
The sparkle pod clutch has a great graphic- it looks like it could be a jellyfish, a sparkler, or dandelion fluff.
