No doubt you'll be able to find many a clutch in gold, silver or bronze, but Alexander McQueen is forever linked to London and often graced his accessories with the Union Jack. This Crystal Britannia box clutch, $1,895, is available by pre-order at Neiman Marcus. Its faceted crystals are set on top-stitched suede with McQueen's signature hinged skull clasp. Unfortunately, you won't be able to get your hands on it until after the games are over, in October.
