we're Obsessed!

Like scents, certain color combos evoke memories. Red white and blue take me back to July 4th, black and orange were the colors of my high school, and green and pink remind me of my childhood bedroom. But nothing shocks my senses out of their routine like Balmain's pastel clutch. Far from the sweet combo of my Laura Ashley sleeper set, this clutch is an edgy take on the palette. Less Connecticut country and more rock 'n roll, Balmain's green and pink combo is a breath of fresh air.
