Clutches: so cute, but so inconvenient -- Big Spender Edition

For some reason, the cutest bags tend to be clutches. With their intricate detailing and variety of colors and textures, a perfect clutch can complete any evening outfit. Just one problem though: they are terribly inconvenient. I can't keep track of the number of times I've put one down on a tabletop or countertop and forgotten about it. I also can't count how many times they've slipped out of my hands and onto the grimy floor. Though most clutches have a convertible chain, the chain takes away the entire purpose. If only we women had some kind of super ability to keep clutches under our arms or in our hands without being incredibly annoyed by them.

The cutest necklace in the world ♥

It's an octopus. It's shiny. It's gold. It's orange. It's blue. It has a crown. It has sparkly diamond accents. What's not to love?

Fall is the season for scarves!

As the weather gets cooler, wardrobes tend to become drabber, and that's why scarves are the perfect fall accessory. They add a pop of color without much effort, and let us retain the last florals of summer without looking like we just walked out of July. Also, they are extremely versatile; they work hanging around our necks, tied to our handbags, or intertwined into our hair. However you choose to wear them, it's indisputable that scarves will be a wardrobe staple for centuries to come.
