I have lots of…stuff.
And when there is lots of stuff…you need lots of spaces to put that stuff – to be clutter free.
Everything ideally should have it’s place, right?
Well being a woman I also love cute bags, compartments and accessories – what woman doesn’t?!
So Friends – I’m here to tell you about 3 shops that have you covered, so if you don’t know them – you need to and after this post you are going to love them as much as I do!
I adore these Vintage Pleated Pouches by Sand And Starfish.
They are not only adorable but they are so functional and useful. I use them for just about everything – I’m convinced you can’t have too many. I have two currently and I could seriously use about 10 more and my life still probably wouldn’t be complete. Sometimes I use it to consolidate all the extra stuff that floats around in my purse, other times I use one to protect my sunglasses. I sometimes use them to put all of my hair ties, etc. in to consolidate in trips. Her shop is seriously filled with so many adorable vintage pouches, clutches, garland and more.
Seriously love.
This shop is out of Panama City Beach, FL and Stephanie has become a friend over the years. Such a sweet soul and such a cute family to boot.
And did I mention she has a serious addiction to Washi Tape? 😉

Hello Wristlet!
I. Adore. My. Wristlet. From. Echoland.
Seriously friends. Sometimes you just have to run an errand and you don’t want to lug your purse, or you are out and about all day walking and venturing around a touristy town or something and you don’t want to have that shoulder weight following you around all day. All you want is something to toss your essentials in – a little money, your phone, some business cards and your lip gloss – oh and a pen. Well – those seem to be my essentials anyways!
A couple of weekends ago, Ryan and I went out on a nice little date out where we dressed up and got fancy as our last – fancy date night before A arrives – and this sweet little wristlet (also known as “the minimalist” in her shop) was absolutely perfect for the evening and fit perfectly with my little brown dress. 🙂
Anywhooo….I was introduced Echoland, out of Pennsylvania, and the fabulous owner Sarah. Not only is her shop filled with some great collections – achem, one day I plan on own one of each – but Sarah is the type of person that you just click with and you can see her genuine heart and her love of Jesus just shines through in who she is when she talks to you and her passion, oh her passion. I love her Passion.

Sew Beastly our of Dallas, TX is where this absolutely beautiful clutch is from and I absolutely adore it and all it’s roomy-ness. I had no idea what to expect from a clutch but this thing is not only super adorable, and functional – but I can fit sooooo much stuff in it. So, if you ever veered away from a clutch in fear it wouldn’t have enough room then fear.not.
Another thing I love about this clutch is I know that the fabric is used has been given a second life as this clutch.
I. love. that.
You see, Sew Beastly focuses on sustainability by creating everyday, handmade accessories from organic, salvaged, repurposed, and recycled fabrics. Citlalli, the very lovely owner, tries to use eco-friendly fabrics as much as possible, but you will also find some designer fabrics as well.
My products feature fabrics that are manipulated into my signature textured ruffle.
Citlalli is a fabulous business owner that you can tell absolutely loves what she does, and it’s in every detail from her products, to her packaging – and of course her tagline
“Made with Beastly Love”.

As always, these three fabulous shops are apart of our A-List – so you can feel 100% confident that you will be 100% satisfied and taken care of.
And yep – this is about as close as it gets to a fashion post ’round here folks.
Hey hey! 🙂 I love Sarah over at EchoLand, she is such a doll. 🙂 If you wanted to check out my clutches, I’d love to hear what you think!
