Clutches are my favorite style of handbag/purse to carry. And the more colorful the clutch, the better. When researching my next clutch purchase I found local LA designer Clare Vivier. In love with their wide array of colors available, simplicity of aesthetic, and made in LA appeal, I knew a Vivier clutch would be perfect. We visited the Vivier & Bentley boutique last Saturday to pick up something special.Located off Sunset in Silver Lake, Vivier and Bentley is a small storefront with the designers' studio in the back. The boutique houses Vivier bags and accessories, Bentley jewelry, and a few curated items. Browsing through the space is a beautiful experience of classic items.
Flat clutches, fold over clutches, and oversize clutches. I spent a while fawning over the beautiful leather of each style. 
Our shoes and their painted floor.
Hooray for local made and remade! I love supporting local independent designers. Not only does it strengthen their brand, it strengthens their community.
Forest green wallet and electric blue flat clutch. I'm excited to carry these around and hope to purchase more in other colors.What is your favorite style of purse? Do you have a favorite local shop?
Local Love is a new weekly series I'm working on. LL post will hold local finds, locally made goods, local foods, local owned shops. It will focus on the Santa Barbara area and also a bit of LA and Portland.

These are fantastic pieces. I love the colors and textures!
Cool purses! I usually carry cheap-chic bags from Target or Forever 21. They don't always last long, but it's fun to swap them out for new styles.
Great buys!!! I've been dying for a Vivier clutch for a while now. It's just so hard to decide which color to choose :) xoxo
