Benefit the POREfessional is available from Benefit Cosmetics for $28.

I’ve been looking for a fun way to add a little “zip” to my wardrobe of basic handbags and clutches, so it’s easy to see why this shining little wristlet caught my eye.

In addition to being sequined, metallic and just plain fun, this wristlet is nothing short of incredibly practical for a big night out: it boasts a large interior pocket as well as a zippered exterior pocket to keep all of your must-haves separate and safe.

Coach Poppy Sequins Zippy Wristlet is available from Coach for $128.
