Help me find an evening bag like this, please!

Hi ladies,

I am having a difficult time finding an evening bag that is mostly ivory/bone in colour with some black accents. If I have to go with one solid colour, I would prefer the bag to be ivory/bone instead of black.

The attached photo is the look I''m going for. I''m flexible with the material as long as it doesn''t look like a day bag and I''d prefer not to spend more than $250.

Any help you guys can provide would be greatly appreciated!

Yikes. This is daunting...

black lace/champagne satin

this is black and gold...

black with jewels

Ok this one seems almost perfect except for the orange...

This one is probably too casual, but I like the shape

This is just ivory

beaded and champagne or black

ivory or black super beaded

Black with ivory beading (basically the opposite of what you posted)

black with silver beading

I give up. I''m so not a purse person.

Thanks Freke! You've provided me with some real possibilities; my outfit is vintage-looking, so a few of those bags would work well. I really like the orange one... Hmmm... You shouldn't be too matchy-matchy anyways, right? (am trying to convince myself it'll work!)

Thanks again!

ETA: For not being a purse person, you did better than me!

The orange one is my favorite. I totally think you could pull that one off. What does your outfit look like? Could you add some orange shoes or earrings or something?

And I think I was able to find that many because all of the shoe sites usually have purses too.

Here''s a photo of the dress. I already have shoes to match but would definitely consider buying another pair if it brings the whole outfit together.

I think I''ll order the bag and see how it goes.

Thanks!
