| recent find for a special bride (gray, silver and white beaded clutch in near perfect condition) |
i think i'll have to start a "favorite finds" post on a regular basis. i adore the things i find after scouring, racks, shelves and lots for the perfect item. whether a thrift store, a vintage boutique or a swap meet, hunting and then gathering up the loot is one of my all-time favorite activities.
an item that i find to be the perfect gift for a bride to be, (whether using it on the wedding day, as i intend, or to use for a fun night out) is a vintage white clutch. you see them everywhere if you're on the lookout and the craftsmanship that went into clutches from the 20's to mid century makes so many of them unique and special. for several years, i've searched the cases and shelves of many boutiques for these clutches, to provide my dear friends with a gift that is useful and pretty.
from beaded, to glittery, to rouched texture...you'll find one that speaks to you for that bride. if you're close enough to the wedding, you can also include lip gloss, breath mints, or any other "day-of" necessity to have at the ready. perhaps a something borrowed, or blue that you know the bride specifically was interested in can be included. and remember to always state that it's only if they chose to use it. otherwise it's great for a night on the town (don't want the bride to feel like it's a necessity to put it to use - as she may have something already planned).
happy gift giving.
