Hi all! Here's the second part of my dress post! Please help me choose a bag for my blue dress.

I love both bags, the rhinestone one seems a bit small but it is charming. The other one seems a little big but it is very fashion forward.

YAY) Rhinestone clutch (1-2)
NAY) MK Tilda silver clutch (3-4)

Thanks for any input, good or bad!

Hard one -- if you go with the rhinestone shoes, I like the rhinestone clutch to match.

Otherwise, I think I prefer the larger one!

Larger one does look more modern & you can carry more

I must have taken my matchy matchy pills this morning, because I am preferring the rhinestone clutch. Because you are peitite, the dress is ftitted and shows some skin, I feel the smaller clutch works better in terms of proportion and the overal vibe of the outfit.

Ack, I am torn! I thought seeing the pictures and getting your input would help me figure out which one, but now I am really not sure! The little one is elegant and classic, but it is teeny. That is giving me pause because it doesn't feel very modern.

I prefer the first one. Has bigger longevity factor IMHO, and looks very classy.

Having seen it all together, I prefer the blingy shoes and the larger clutch. The light tone of the clutch looks slightly off with the pumps, and the rhinestone clutch looks too small.

Hi Modgrl --

While I adore the little rhinestone clutch, I voted for the Tilda.

Even though it's a little oversized for your petite frame, I love how in your face it is! And really, with your family the bigger the bling the better, right?

[That said, I do prefer the lower-key, low vamp pump to the sandal...just seems more your "regular" non-family style and more versatile given we're heading into cooler temps.]

I love the larger one. It does seem more modern (although what I love about the smaller one is its vintage vibe) -- but there is just something about its size that I think works with the broader strokes of the dress's design. Even though you are petite, the dress has big lines. I love the dress on you, BTW. And your attitude in the picture with the larger envelope clutch is awesome.

I am developing envy of your dress up lifestyle! Especially where it coincides with Blondie concerts

I vote for the second one. Fab, modern, and enough room to carry what you'll need.

I usually only lurk, but I logged in just to say THE SECOND ONE. The first one doesn't look like anything special to me. But the second one looks special enough to make me a little envious! I also prefer the second shoe option.

I'm feeling pretty good about both options. I feel like either would work style wise and I'm not making any big faux pas either way. I've gotten some likes and dislikes for both options, though the votes are definitely skewing towards the MK Tilda. Thanks everyone who chimed in!

My fabulous mother in law came over last night and immediately said use the bigger one because you can carry more stuff. She is right of course... I'll need to carry snacks for the kids, crayons, mini coloring books, camera, my iphone and lots of tissues for happy tears. I'll need the bigger bag!
