you out, we suggest that you make yourself a cup of tea and settle in to do some

Down to a Cute Clutch |
When you're going out on the town, purses are annoying. They're often so big that
you end up boffing people in the shoulder (or face, depending on your height)
every time you turn around...and there's nothing more frustrating than trying
to cut a rug with a handbag hanging off your arm. Enter the clutch, which won't
interfere with your dance moves, as you can just hold it in one hand while you
boogie. There are tons of cute styles out there, but here are a few that stood
out to us. Enjoy!
DINA DIVA Clutch by Amici Accessories - $42.00
Vibrant
red suede that can be dressed up or dressed down, and the "envelope" shape is
fun, too. | 
Elongated Evening Clutch - $78.00
Protect your nightcrawler
essentials with this hard-shell metallic clutch by Arden B. |
Betsey Johnson 'La Cage Aux Betsey' Satin Clutch -
$150.00
Only Betsey Johnson could make a clutch reminiscent of birds and circuses.
Our New Year's Eve pick. | 
Jalda Ostrich-Anaconda Bean Clutch - $280.00

but a bit tough, in a dusky pink hue that you can wear with anything.
|
Cammie Hill Cork Clutch - $161.96

the award for most unusual material: cork! |

Amazing masculine
styling, like a great pair of tuxedo pants. |

A dreamily purple, fairy tale-esque clutch that's perfect for a demure outfit,
or possibly a really subversive one. |
Tile Clutch with Horn Handles - $39.99
A shunning
shell and horn exterior - very unusual. |
Calla Clutch by Emily - $226.00
Something about
this clutch makes us want it really badly; it's simple, but very right now. |

Sophisticated and clean-lined,
this bag is perfect for a business lunch or martinis. |

Schneider's Twist on the Basic Tee |
Get a Gail Schneider "Adar"
shirt (gray/gray or black/black) for the reduced price of $60.00 (and free
shipping and handling, too!). Valid until December 31, 2006. Just mention Lady
Licorice when you place your order.
Gail's
soft, wearable tanks keep you casual, with a very non-basic twist.
For those days when
you just feel like putting on a tank top, but you don't want to resort to plain
ribbed black, white, or khaki, slip on one of designer Gail Schneider's tops.
Each one is punctuated with special details, from ribbons and sequins to zippers
and false pockets. If you like unconventional, you'll like these tops! There's
one for every female out there - girly or utilitarian.
Get any shirt
for only $46.40 (regularly priced $58-$85) if you mention Lady Licorice when
you place an order at Gail
Schneider Designs.
