The Cult Gaia Eos Clutch is an influencer favorite so whether you are familiar with the brand or not chances are you have scrolled across it before on one of your social media feeds. This eminent clutch features a very distinct design that you can spot out clearly, a rectangle box base with variable beads scattered across the casing edges, and has become a go-to for elevating outfits at dressy events, never growing old.
Despite its beauty, there are both pros and cons to the Eos Clutch. As with many photo-op items, it may not be the most practical bag on the market. So if you’re deciding if it’s the right move for you, let’s go through the most prominent downsides and upsides of this accessory.

Cons Of The Cult Gaia Eos Clutch
The biggest con of this Cult Gaia Clutch is the fragility combined with its weight, it’s very heavy but also very delicate and you’ll feel that whilst you are holding it. On the upside to this, the clutch looks like it could be two different ways; flimsy and cheap with light plastic or have a heaviness that feels expensive, it’s the second but if you were to drop it on a hard surface it’s likely to just smash into pieces easily, even having a care card disclaimer on the inside telling you that it is very delicate. Another con is that the Eos doesn’t fit much and you have no chance of getting items in that are more than 5 cm in depth inside this means your phone should be fine, wallet, lipstick, travel-size perfume, and maybe a pack of gum but nothing more, so you are not likely to carry this on a daily basis, as this clutch wouldn’t be suited for a day to day bag (most clutches aren’t), but saying that it’s more likely to be bought for events anyway.
Pros To The Cult Gaia Eos Clutch
The main pro many designer handbag admirers will admire is the price point. It’s a lower cost for a high-end designer good which is nice if you’re looking for a clutch for events but you won’t pull out too often or maybe if you’re just that busy you might and get your wear, purchasing will not drain your wallet and you get a nice coveted accessory for events. A pro that can overturn any negatives is the sculptural intensity and unique creativity turning this bag from a statement piece to a piece of art, elevating any ensemble to the highest level. Beautiful art is not always necessarily the most practical but amazing to look at and have. Getting this piece depends on what you value in your accessories this could either work for you or not.
