The Party Clutch

With all the bright colors flowing into this summer’s fashions you need to make sure you have a clutch that compliments your outfit on a night out. When wearing bold colors you need to pick a more subdued color handbag or clutch that still makes a statement with detailed texture and hardware.

Big Buddha had the right idea with their Jacqueline Studded Clutch available in Cream, Grey and Black for $55 at Hand In Pocket. With a bit of fringe, wrinkled texture and its silver and gold studs this clutch is truly a tasteful statement-making bag.

The only question now is…. Which color?

With a burgeoning young, hip crowd continuing to pour into the area, Smyrna’s shopping scene has kept up pace to provide an array of boutiques and stores to cater to the masses. The past decade has seen the emergence of Smyrna Market Village, Ivy Walk, West Village Shoppes and the multi-million dollar transformation of Cumberland Mall. While the downturn in the economy has closed the doors on several boutiques in the past couple of years, the area is far from decline. Here’s a look at what’s hot around town.

Ivy Walk1675 Cumberland Parkway

In the Smyrna/Vinings vicinity, Ivy Walk is a larger-scale version of the live/work/play Market Village community. Shopping includes flower shop Affluence Floral, children’s boutique Precious Cargo Kids and the trendy Hand in Pocket.

Eye On Hand in Pocket:

Owner Mona Ariza opened Hand in Pocket in 2006 and was attracted to the area because the demographics were a fit for the type of women the business caters to. “At the time it was a hugely underserved area — you would have to go to Perimeter or Buckhead for shopping,” she said. The boutique features a wall of denim, and supplies everything you need to complete a casual, yet stylish out-on-the-town look. Ariza recently added work wear into the mix as well, clothes that are “more trendy and fashionable but not so J. Crew cookie-cutter. “A boutique shopper appreciates individuality and uniqueness,” Ariza said. Though her background is in occupational therapy and she has an MBA, the put-together Ariza is someone you’d gladly take fashion advice from. “This is what I’m supposed to be doing. It’s a reflection of my personality ultimately,” she said of the boutique. What you’ll find: A huge wall of denim. Cute dresses. Feminine tops. Accessories. Jewelry from local designers.For more info:?678.309.9550, www.handinpocketonline.com
