Project Design: Envelope Clutches

By -
This week's Project Accessory found themselves in Kenneth Cole's boutique being challenged to create accessories for a look he assigned to each of them. All of them were required to make a clutch and whatever else they thought would work. The prize: Winning accessories will be sold in Kenneth Cole stores this holiday season.

Brian's winning look involved a molded unicorn horn and rustic leather, but most of the designers went for some sort of envelope clutch. These are classic, chic and easy to make in a short period of time. Since the unicorn clutch (pictured right) is far too unique to find similar items, here is a round up of interesting and unique envelope clutches on Etsy. Which one would you carry this holiday season?

As a nerdy kid who carries my laptop as often as I carry my wallet, I usually get a super chic/clutch looking laptop sleeve. This way when occasion calls, I can just ditch everything, put essentials in the "clutch" and go (and of course the padding protect those fragile make up compact etc).

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.

What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at ...
