Oh, J. Crew.  You’re like that ex boyfriend I can’t get over.  Every time I think I’m completely done, you go and pull me back in again.

Seriously, I’ve been ‘meh’ about you for awhile.  I had this gift card I just couldn’t bring myself to use because nothing you were selling really jumped out at me.  I finally used it on those shoes I’d been dreaming about and I thought that would be it for us.

But apparently my life is incomplete unless I’m coveting some J. Crew item I shouldn’t spend the money on and right now, it’s this Invitation Clutch.   It’s small, it’s sassy, it can be a clutch or a shoulder bag, and it’s that sort of wonderful loud print I love that goes with nothing, and therefore, it goes with everything.  It is just begging to be taken to every party you’re headed to this fall.

It is also “limited edition” which is basically just shopping code for “playing hard to get,” so if you want it, perhaps don’t wait for the amazingness that is the J. Crew final sale.  Snag it now.  I will be jealous.
