For my wedding this past Saturday (which, by the way, was an absolute dream - thank you all sooo much for the well wishes, I treasure each one!!), I envisioned carrying a woven ivory silk clutch similar to this one by Bottega Veneta, $1,160 at bluefly.com.



Instead, I got the look for less with this gorgeous clutch from Nordstrom.com ($78). I didn't know where it was half the time (my sister/maid-of-honor took care of details like that) but at the end of the evening, we were reunited and I was glad to have my personal items safely stored in a precious container which I'm sure I will use again. This purse is really beautifully made and has a silver chain strap that you can tuck inside. Love!
