It’s a total pain to switch out purses, don’t you agree?!?! My sister has this genius trick and I had to share it with you…
…she keeps her clutch in her big purse! It’s almost like she uses her clutch as a wallet. That way, when she is going somewhere and doesn’t want to bring her big purse, she just grabs her clutch. No switching out purses!
I am loving how the tortoise shell detail on my ET clutch goes with my animal print flats! I added gold jewelry to the outfit to pick up the different shades of yellow, found in the tortoise shell and in the animal print. The green pop of color is the perfect finishing touch!
Yup, totally wearing white after labor day and loving every second of it -ha! Even Emily Post says it’s OK, post (here).

I’m pregnant, and thanks to you I have been rockin’ my white maternity jeans that I wore while pregnant with my first son who was due in July, and now I can re-wear them in the fall/winter. And LOVING it!

hey carly, thank erica for that trick. that’s so intuitive but blew past me.
the white COH jeans, are they see-through-ish like most white denim skinnies i’ve tried on?
what other brands would you recommend that’s not see-through and budget friendly?
thanks!
keep up your posts!!!!

I’ve been doing this for years. It really does make everything easier. You stay organized and you can grab it quickly for a quick pop into the grocery store if you dont want to lug around a big purse!

Carly, I just found your blog and I love it! You have such simple, fantastic style…so perfect for a mom of 3!! I’ve used several tips of yours (i.e. how to use accessories!) and have already gotten so many compliments! Keep up the good work! Wish I lived in TX so you could come to my closet 🙂 Question–I’m going to take the plunge to invest in Frye’s…been thinking about it for 2 years! Do you remember what color yours are? I am looking a darker brown, like yours….I’m thinking they are either the Cognac or Antique Brown?? (from Zappos).
Thanks again for all of your style help!!!!

that’s brilliant! much better than what I do: keep every bag stocked with essentials and then move my keys/wallet/phone from bag to bag. ugh.
