I first noticed the book clutch when Nicaragua designer, Estefania Lacayo for ESTEFAN showcased them at Nicaragua Diseña 2012 in October. The only books I have are fashion or public relations related - and this clutch would be a perfect addition to both my book and handbag collection. Quirky celebs like Michelle Williams and Natalie Portman have been carrying Olympia Le-Tan book clutches at red carpets but they are way out of my budget. Like seriously? 1,200 euros for an empty book which I can DIY? That's just cray. Therefore, I have found 4 different prices for you! ;) Happy Book Clutch Shopping!

Get the Book Clutch!

Super Splurge with Olympia Le Tan 1,200 euros

February MoodBoard: Misses Pink

Can a girl ever have too much pink? I think NOT!!!

my laptop case by Marc by Marc Jacobs - hot pink! 

my fun spiky 'hellraiser' flats by Unif - hot pink!

my boxing gloves - pastel pink!

my velvet turban by Forever 21 - hot pink!

my new lipstick by Maybelline "Colors Sensation" collection - Vivid Rose #875!

my new Valentine's heart case from Target's Valentine's Day home collection - red and pink hearts!

my Christmas present obsession, Kate Spade wallet - hot pink!

and thanks to the Convoca Barcelona PR team, I have been gifted what I would like to call a "Valentine's edition" pink and red pair of sunglasses by Etnia Barcelona! 

even my new bedding from Target is PINK!!!

perhaps like how bulls are turned on by red...i am turned on by pink?

therefore, here are just a few more PINK items that should be IN my closet.

A scent from the botanical gardens of Balenciaga Paris, inspired by the woman who is beautiful but dangerous. An enchanting fragrance composed of a green accord twisted by an exhilarating note of juvenile freshness.
