I am envious of Hailee Steinfeld’s latest arm candy, the Chanel Boy Brick clutch, more popularly known as the LEGO clutch. I love offbeat stuff and this clutch had just the right touch of sophistication — and whimsy. The young celebrity was spotted carrying the playful clutch to the Chanel Haute Couture S/S 2013 show at the Paris Fashion Week.

Hailee wore a tartan-style Chanel cardigan, leather skirt, black cap and Christian Louboutin pumps which she matched with the bright yellow LEGO clutch that perfectly suited her youthful exuberance.
Other colors include crayon hues like green, red, blue, pink and white, plus a transparent version with black accents. It also comes with a detachable chain strap. Here’s the Boy Brick Clutch as seen on a model during the Chanel runway show last October:

Sigh. With its $9,000 price tag, I’ll just content myself with looking at photos of the clutch…or shop for something similar at one of my favorite handmade crafts stores, Etsy.
But now that we’re on the subject of fun clutches, these playful ones might just catch your fancy and whimsy:
