A few weeks ago, Hearts asked me to be part of February's Blogger Style Guide and I was beyond thrilled to work with them. If you haven't heard of Hearts - be prepared to be obsessed! Their products are absolutely incredible. Each piece is made to be eco-friendly, fair trade and an authentic representation of designs from different cultures. The Beat Foldover Clutch is Guatemalan inspired, using traditional beading and handmade stitching techniques (read below for a more in depth explanation) And you guys... I'm in love with it!

 

Obviously, this is the perfect nighttime bag, but I wanted to challenge myself and use it more casually. I paired it with a chunky knit sweater and my favorite studded booties for a daytime look. Because I got so many compliments on it, I'm totally re-thinking daytime clutches! It's definitely large enough to hold all my stuff so it kind of makes it a no-brainer. Plus right now you can get 30% off your order when you enter the code BEDAZZLE30 at checkout.

 

So check out their stuff and let me know what you think! I want to hear if you guys order anything and how much you like love it!

 

More about the Beat Foldover Clutch:

• Hearts visited Guatemala to meet with artisan communities and to experience Guatemalan culture first-hand. They observed ancient weaving traditions that have been carried forward by contemporary masters and listened to artisans who now produce Hearts designs, talk about their lives. Hearts’ partnership with Guatemalan artisans enables them to devote their extraordinary traditional skills to the creation of design-driven product lines, whose sale ensures they continue to improve their families’ qualities of life.
• This clutch was made with traditional Guatemalan brocade foot looming techniques, AZO free dye, glass seed beads, and antique brass.

Wanted: Prabal Gurung for Target Lace Up Pumps

The ones that got away! Nolita Print Multi-Color Lace Up Pumps from the Prabal Gurung for Target collection

I really shouldn't even be posting this... I got everything I wanted and more on Sunday when the Prabal Gurung for Target line went on sale.. (see this blurry insta photo from my haul) But these gorgeous multi-color babies just slipped through my fingers early Sunday AM when I went to add them to my bag.. and devastation... Size 6... sold out..... sigh...

 

So even though my little heart should be content with all the floral & kaleidoscope goodness I did get my hands on.. I can't help but yearn for these neon gorgies. I'm not giving up on them quite yet (remember when I was searching high and low for this bad boy? Successfully found!) So I'll be on the lookout 24/7 and putting scouts to work in different cities too ;)

 

Oh & if you happen to not want to the pair you bought.. size 6.. Let me know and I will gladly take those off your hands! And no I won't be purchasing them from you for some crazy obscene amount.. I've already seen 1 pair on ebay for $150... but I will pay you for them, plus a little something extra. Can you help a sister out?!
