DIY Clutch Picks
DIY in the fashion world is the ultimate win-win. What could be better than the gratification of putting a little elbow grease into a project with potential and getting a one-of-a-kind piece as your reward? Since we are all about giving here at Fab Savvy, we especially love the way DIY projects give back to the planet by re-purposing something may otherwise have been discarded.
Embracing the Do-It-Yourself spirit. . . we’ve picked a few clutches that were given a little extra flair. You can recreate these projects or use them as inspiration for your own masterpiece.
Prada-licious Project from Refinery29
This first bejeweled clutch project was posted by Rrefinery29.com . The “Prada Inspired” look is fairly easy to achieve. View the how to slide show here.
Kirsten at Studs and Pearls offered a Lanyard Stitch Clutch inspired by an Alexander McQueen look. It may be a bit more time intensive than the first clutch project but it is seems well worth the wait. View the step by step directions here.

. . . And A SAVVY New Year!
Get your new year off to a fashionable start with these tips of the trade. Great advice to help you wow at your New Year’s Party, and clean into the rest of 2012. Get inspired with tips from Fashion Designer and Expert Claudia Patel and channel your inner starlet.
Sequined Stripe Minis
Form fitting sequined striped minis have been a hit with celebs on the red carpet this winter. And it’s no wonder why. This tight getup is both sexy and has the right amount of sparkle for this year’s party. Horizontal stripes work best with petite frames, as they add width. Opt for darker colors that give a slimming effect and a few wide stripes, instead of thin if you are shapely.
Tuxedo Jackets
This versatile look can take you from sleek to chic, and can be worn night or day. A truly good investment, you can pair a tuxedo jacket with bold color jeans, a dress or your new black skinny jeans. Is your upper body your problem area? Then draw attention to your legs in this number. Want to keep it classic? Pair a black tuxedo jacket with tight skinny jeans.
Classic LBD with a Twist 
Who says a twisted situation is always negative? In fact, a twist on the classic LBD screams flirty chic. If you would like to keep it simple, the asymmetrical styling of a twisted one-shoulder dress creates a great fashion focal point. Steer clear of necklaces, and opt for drop earrings. Spice it up with a bold color. If you have broad shoulders, stay away from cross over twisted tops that will draw attention to your problem area, and further broaden your shoulders. This look works great on petite frames.

Fab Picks
Need some inspiration for your 2010 warm weather wardrobe? Of course you do. That’s were we come in. Here are a few fab picks to get you off to a good start.
Don’t underestimate the power of a great bag. Now is the time of year to play around with color, and the perfect bag is a fool-proof way to do just that. This option from Elaine Turner may be just what the fashion doctor ordered. Shown here in tomato red, the Sierra Pebble clutch is a staple piece from the St. Tropez collection.
It may sound cliche, but the truth is it just works. A nice floral print is a must have, especially in this transition from spring to summer styles. 
Take a cue from Eco-friendly Kristinit. Their Kiera Dress is a fun dress in a sophisticated floral. And right now it is available from their website, for over half off.
