Last week was my sister’s first week back at school.
I remember feeling rejuvenated at the start of the school year. I would attend my classes determined to take thorough notes in my best hand writing in my brand new notebooks.
Throughout the year, my notes became more abbreviated and my handwriting became sloppier, but hey, as long as my grades stayed high, that’s all that really matters, right?
There’s just something about the start of something new. Whether it be a new school year, new month, new season, new job… Something about beginning a new adventure feels motivating and exciting.
I have a good feeling about the month of September. 😀 Happy September 1!
Lunch
My good September vibes carried over into my lunch today.
I enjoyed a homemade chicken salad wrap with a side of grape tomatoes and cucumber slices.
I prepared the chicken salad by combining:
- 3 oz. canned chicken
- 1 tbsp. light Miracle Whip (mayo will also work)
- ½ Granny Smith apple, chopped
After topping a whole wheat tortilla with baby greens and the chicken salad, my meal was good to go.
Git in mah belly! 😀
Wedding Day Clutch
I would now like to address the most unimportant decision I will make related to planning our wedding: My wedding-day purse.
I want to have a small clutch on my big day to hold little essentials like tissues and lip gloss and am currently torn between the following options:
Option D:
Which one would you choose?
(Totally kidding about Option D, by the way. 😉 )
spokesnoats says
The clutches got better and better as I scrolled down! Option C is my pick. There are so many responses on this post, it might have been easier for you to have done a poll!
Lauren says
Billy Madison!!!! Such a classic! 🙂
I say B! A is a close second though.
Simone says
I love A! Its beautiful!
Holly at Greek Yogurt and Apple Slices says
Option C- I LOVE it! And I love the color! I can’t wait to see all of your wedding pictures, I know you will be an absolutely BEAUTIFUL bride 🙂
Linda says
I love A and C!
brian a says

peanutbutterfingers says
if you click on the “option A” text in the post it’ll take you to a website where you may purchase it.
Miranda @ MirandasJeans says
D D D D D D D D D !! Please pick D! Though I didn’t have a clutch for my wedding, I prob just gave my stuff to Kevin to hold on to for the night. Might as well have him get used to it right from the get go right lol.
Tay says
omg all so cute!! Definitely A or C. I like the color.
Kt says
A!!!
Fallon says
B all the way. It is simple and beautiful.
Erika says
I understand why you are torn – I like options B & C. (BTW- Have we ever seen your wedding dress? I can’t find the link if you have posted it!) 🙂
peanutbutterfingers says
nope! it’s a surprise for the big day!
Prim says
definitely option B!!! Very elegant!
Kristine says
B or C. I like the design of B better, but C would give a pop of color.
petrice says
that canned chicken scares me. Is it nice? which one do you buy?
Sarah says
A!
Katie says
I love option C!!!!
Hey etsy.com has really cute ones too! Have you ever checked out wedding stuff on there?!!!
Melissa says
option A! 🙂
Happy September 1st!
Laura @ Run Eat Date says
Option B!
Kathryn says
Looks like a tough choice. I like option C:)
Erinn says
I would choose option B because it’s so classic looking! You can wear some other time too, not just your wedding. Then there’s always Ariel…
Krista says
Option B!!
heather says
C is something i’d pick in a different color…bows are such a simple statement on the right woman. any bag would look cute on you, but it souuuuuunds from comments before me like youre partial to B. excellent!
Kailey (SnackFace) says
A!A!A! All the way! I love the color and the fact that the latch is hidden!
Amber K says
Hmm, I won’t answer because I can’t make an informed decision.
I just hate clutches! If I have to carry all of my belongings anyway, there’s no point in a purse, in my opinion. 🙂 At my wedding I had my mom hang onto anything I needed.
elisa says
AAAAAAAAAAAAA :)))
Jess T. says
C!! It’s cute and simple, but will still look elegant! If not, you can’t go wrong with a white clutch.
cardiopizza says
I like C! 🙂
kaitm says
I’m all for option A…so cute!!
devan says
Absolutely A!
christina says
definitely C!!!!
Ilene says
C 🙂
Elliott says
C, no question.
A is gorg but I think it’s going to date more than C.
Hillary [Nutrition Nut on the Run] says
B
Anonymous says
B stick with white
Dena says
B!! So pretty 🙂
MJ says
Since you took D out of the running (a mistake I tell you, a BIG mistake! it would add such a lovely colour and whimsy to the wedding)
totally joking!
Seriously I vote for B especially since they can make it pink!
Lindsay says
I love that you are Etsy-obsessed too! It makes me never want to accessory shop in retail ever again! A is fantastic. Loving the pink…so C is cute too, it reminds me of these totally to-die-for Kate Spade shoes: http://www.zappos.com/images/748/7484535/10942-782749-p.jpg?20091127125205
Paige says
Definitely C! But I might change my mind if I saw B in pink – like you said was available up above…hmmm…important decisions here. 😀
Annie says
Definitely option A!!!! It’s romantic, feminie and sweet 🙂
atastelife says
I love the first option! So pretty. Perfect for your gloss.
Courtney says
I LOVE option C!
I love Etsy!!!! I ordered my wedding clutch from Cady Briar on Etsy (http://www.etsy.com/shop/cadybriar?page=1) and they embroidered my husband and my name and our wedding date on the inside. They also lined it with blue silk for my something blue.
Maura says
Option B– In PINK!!!! total winner
Waheeda says
A! its really gorgeous.
Kristina says
Love A!!! 🙂
