normally, a piece like this isn’t one i’d run toward…but for some reason, the new happy clutch from tory burch ($395) is exactly what i want this week.  colorful, fun, and unpretentious…yet still stylish.  and i love the optional chain handle, which makes this work as a clutch or a ladylike shoulder bag.  i think it’s making my inner 7-year-old want to come out and play.  those bright purple and fuschia colors, the polka dots…it’s the perfect antidote to my boring fall wardrobe palette of black and grey, but it’s still bright enough to use right away.

so, what do you think…fug or fab?
