Next- I dropped a half full water bottle in the middle of a restaurant. To top off the evening I actually had my strap break which trying to mingle my way back to my car in a full bar. I’m so glad this wasn’t some kind of date. This was the night I discovered the Emergency Clutch…
What is it you ask? Basically it is a clutch I can grab out of my car/work & take out with me at night. I’m not talking about a first aid kit or camping set… Just in case I’m missing any necessary items to get a bit more glammed up that I don’t usually keep in my car I keep them in the clutch too. It helps me transition to night or update my look quickly on the go. Let’s break down what I keep inside!

My basic might not be your basic- you might want to pick something with silver metal, no metal at all, or in a pattern. I also chose something with a sturdy wrist strap which is handy to grab & go. This one happened to be on sale at Old Navy a long time ago & I still dig the classic lines. Here are a few similar idea styles here, here, & here.
