There’s no need to be so serious all the time, or else you’ll fall into a rut. Right now, I’m just in a mood for fun. Yes, all of my bags are super-classic and can be worn for the rest of time. I just also means when I’m feeling giddy and rebellious, I realize have no bag that accommodates my mood. Until now! Small and cute, a kooky clutch is the best style for having the most fun. Everyone needs – and deserves – a clutch that guarantees a smile every time you walk out your door with it in hand.
