Emma Gordon's So, this little clutch is obviously adorable. And we're obviously giving it away. Here are some things you may not know:

Emma Gordon is a London designer who pairs quirky fabrics and buttons with pretty accents to make delightful, feminine, unusual bags. The bags are handmade by Emma herself and always classy and interesting!

The Dolly Stripe bag you see at right is extremely well-made, with shiny expert ruching and a firm-yet-flexible shape. The top closes with large magnet-snaps and the inside is lined with black and white vertical stripes. If you don't have a chic little casual clutch in your wardrobe, you're just being negligent.

Emma Gordon has a terrific website, here, and supplies her bags to shops all over the world (and offers free international shipping -- score!). She has been recognized internationally as an up-and-comer, her press pages is one of the best we've seen for an indie designer!

And here's your chance to get one of Emma's awesome bags for free!
  • To enter, leave a confirmed comment below telling us what essentials you must have when you carry a little bag.
  • The comment must be left before 5pm EST on Friday, July 18.
  • You may enter only once.

Essentials in a small bag: Must go with a variety of outfits, be just fancy enough for a cocktail party or jeans, a small pocket for credit cards and cash, and just big enough to hold my phone and a few keys!

Little bag requires phone, keys, wallet, and a pen.

My current little bag has those, a mirror, a bag-holder, an electronic personal-diary-thing... it's filled to the brim.

All I carry are small bags. Seriously. Keys, pen, wallet, one lipstick, tiny cellphone. That's all. Every day. Of course, let's not get into what is in my car's glove compartment.
