I know I’ve posted several times that I’m absolutely obsessed with clutches. I only have one but I also use my two Louis Vuitton pochette‘s as clutches also. One day I will have a closet full of them but for now I’ll just window shop via the internet. I’ve never heard of the brand Cut25 by Yigal Azrouel before and I’m already in love because the “Envelope” Clutch is 100% fabulous. It was love at first sight and I would buy it in a heart beat if I could.
What is your biggest pet peeve? I could probably come up with a lot of things! But when it comes to accessories, I think it has to be gaudy motifs. I’m sorry, but I have never been a fan of lips. I honestly don’t know what the appeal is. And yet I have seen several handbags and clutches with a big fat pair of lips either as an adornment or as the actual shape of the piece. So when I saw the Diane von Furstenberg Carolina Lips Clutch, I was not surprised and surprised at the same time.
I love different and unique looking fashion. I never follow trends and I don’t like being like anyone else. My attitude is that life is too short, so stand out from the crowd. With that said, I absolutely love the Cheap Monday Vegan “Pony” Bag. This bag is so definitely different than anything I’ve seen in the fashion world lately and I love it. I could do without the faux fur panel but it’s still a pretty awesome looking bag.
I absolutely love crystals especially Swarovski crystals. To me, crystals just make accessories more stunning looking. On Saturday night I was at Macy’s and I nearly died and went to shoe heaven when I saw a pair of Steve Madden heels that were adorned in crystals. They were not cheap but it didn’t take more than 5 minutes to decide to purchase them. I literally pranced around in them at the shoe department before I bought them because I couldn’t believe how beautiful they were. Crystals are girly, fun and just drop dead gorgeous.
Floral motifs are everywhere this year. They are bright, muted, realistic, or abstract… there is a little bit of everything out there. You mostly see them on dresses, tops, and scarves. There are even floral print jeans! I have seen a few floral themed handbags too. The designs are usually printed, embroidered, or beaded. However, never before have I seen anything like Foley + Corinna’s take on the floral motif. Meet the Foley + Corinna Lotus Clutch!
Fall is not my favorite season but in the fashion world, I love it! I adore black handbags and right before Fall all these fabulous handbags start coming out. One of those handbags is the Studded “Drew” by Diane von Furstenberg. I swear, two trends that just never seem to go away are the neon trend and my personal favorite, the stud trend. Diane von Furstenberg nailed the whole stud trend with this beauty! I especially love the mix of big and little studs featured all over the bag.
Lately, I’ve been into smaller handbags which is kind of weird considering I’m big bag kind of gal. Usually, I try to stuff as much as I can in my larger handbag. Sometimes I even put my lap top, jacket & as much food as I can in my bags. It’s that serious, big bags are definitely my thing. However, as of recently I have been using smaller bags on a daily basis. I’m not sure why but I’m sure the insane heat in South Florida has to do with it. It’s simply too hot to carry around a big bag. It would literally feel like a workout!

I’ve been craving and searching for a cross-body bag for months! I’m not one for small handbags but I really like the look of them. They seem easy to handle when you have a long day of shopping or errands to run. I want one that’s black leather with gold hardware of course. I have found another one that I love the Milly “Harper” Clutch.
What I love about this bag is that at first glance you wouldn’t expect it to be a purse. It kind of looks like a camera would be held in it. What I love the most about the bag is that the strap can be detached! So not only can you use this bag as a cross-body but it can also be used as a clutch! Can we say double whammy? It’s like two bags in one which makes the price more worth it!
