feel that bite? no, you're not looking at your post-holiday amex bill. it's the peter hoffman stingray clutch.

jimmy choo would be the first to tell you that stingray is the new black. the clutch's onyx skin has a natural sparkle and the super-tight magnetic closure keeps your bills at bay. designer peter hoffman is no stranger to wildlife. he got his start making boots, but you're more likely to recognize his skull-adorned belts and other leather accessories. the la jolla-based hoffman uses a variety of exotic single-piece skins (like ostrich, alligator and shark) in the creation of his feral pieces. luckily, his stuff is avail to you. everything is handmade, many custom designed, and his biz has been attracting the likes of bruce springsteen for years.

little black dress? say hello to your little friend.
