{ in your clutches }

Sometimes a purse feels so burdensome to carry around, that I find myself reaching for one of my clutches instead. I'm not even talking just for weddings or fancy occasions, but for trips to the grocery store and library, too. Just don't set it down and forget to pick it back up. I've been there, so I wouldn't judge if you did. But your significant other might get super mad if you do it too often.

Take a look at my eight favorite clutches from around the 'net. I'd probably go with one of each to coordinate with my many fancy library outfits. A girl's gotta look good when she goes to get her read on, after all.

1. New Look Mama Mia Color Block Clutch: ASOS

2. Leather Fringe Purse: byMART

3. Boardwalk Bistro Clutch: ModCloth

4. Patch Bar Clutch: Topshop

5. Black Rainbow Wallet: Need Supply Co.

6. Electric Arrow Clutch: Anthropologie

7. Navajo Envelope Clutch: L-atitude

8. Buena Vista Social Bag: Arc of a Diver 

Vintage Shoes Are Made For Walking

I love wedges and I love vintage, so vintage wedges are like mind blowingly awesome to me.  The peep-toe, cork heeled '70s style wedges are by far my favorite, but there is room in my heart for all varieties!  I've rounded up my favorites from all over the web for you to see, and maybe make shoe shopping a little easier for you.

1.  Brown Suede & Python Wedges - Size 5.5 - $350

2.  Chocolate Oxford Wedge - Size 5.5 - $155
 3.  Braided Leather Cut-out Wedges - Size 7 - $55

4.  Famolare Navy Blue Leather Wedges - Size 8.5 - $78

5.  Yellow Colin Stuart Patent Leather Wedge Heels - Size 8.5 - $45
6.  Boho Macrame Jute Wedges - Size 6 - $75
7.  Sbicca Slingback Wedge - Size 6 - $42

If you ever come across anything similar in a size 4, let me know!  I have the most ridiculously small feet and shoe shopping is not always fun for me.  I could certainly use the help.
