Quirky Things

Has it ever happened where you look at an item in your closet and do a little happy dance every time you see it? It doesn’t need to be anything overly fancy or expensive…just something you like looking at and wearing. That’s how I feel with this clutch. It’s called the “Gujju clutch”, referring to the ethnic Indian woman painted on it. I first saw it on Crazy & Co’s Instagram and remember thinking how utterly cute and quirky it was. I later mentioned it to Richa and then forgot all about it. My sneaky sister remembered that I had been eyeing it and got it for me as a gift over the holidays! Aah, the joys of having an older sister who spoils you :)

Initially, I had a hard time thinking of how to pair it – it’s a modern looking clutch with a traditional, yet off-kilter, design. I could easily pair it with my Indian clothes but what about with the usual clothes I wear? Finally I got the answer – don’t overthink it, just go with it. The results, you can see below…

By the way, if you can’t tell already, Crazy & Co is great for its unique and one-of-a-kind pieces of jewelry and accessories! So take a look at their goodies here!
