Prepping for our Seattle trip, we decided to save our party and money for the weekend to come. So far we've touched on almost every essential ladies accessory. TIme to complete the perfect outfit with a one of a kind clutch purse made by yours truly.
Even though we’re crafty, not all our creations are original. Big shout outs to the following sites and/or people for inspiring this ladies night in...

How we flopped... The Hangover
As pretty as they look, we must admit they aren't very functional. We're big purse gals that are used to carrying anything... and everything around. (Including knitting projects in progress..)
These days all you need is your IPhone anyways so clutch away!
These are so darling! The after is so much more fun than the before. I don't think I've ever owned a clutch, but I can remember playing with my Mom's in my dress-up clothes when I was little :)

These are super cute! I used to be a big purse gal but I've reduced to a small fossil bag. I was filling my purse with too many things that I didn't need to carry with me at all times. LOL
