Gräf & Lantz Felt Clutches Debut
You
bought a second pair of summer sandals (what if something happened to
the first?) rationalized a $300 T-shirt (you’re going to wear it
everyday — till eternity). And started a neoprene bikini fund (you
never know when there’ll be an open casting for a Bond girl).
One of Gräf & Lantz’s new clutches needs no justification at all.
The
felt carryalls come in punchy colors (think pink, yellow, and
pistachio) and are lined with vibrant taffeta. The real allure lies in
the details: an embossed zebra pattern, four useful pockets, and a
jeweled snap to keep contents safe. But the smartest feature is that
they are stain- and water-resistant. So if some drunken buffoon spills
a drink on yours, you simply blot it away.
At $89 each, it’s tempting to scoop up all three.
But please, practice restraint.

The Multi tasker Tote the fabric is oilcloth..
Is that fabric lining the pockets and the inside a bit shiny?
Oh, why yes it is, how nice of you to notice!
It's
oilcloth pals! Not the hard, plastic-y, send your stitch-lines in every
direction (not to mention your use of foul language) variety of
oilcloth either! It is our lovely, supple, beautiful Free Spirit cotton
that has been coated, not too shiny and not to matte, but just right to
let the colors of the fabric shine. The texture is so usable, and as
you can see, it gathers...leaving
all kinds of application doors open, such as darling rain slickers and
hats, bibs, baby bags, lunch totes, splat mats, (oh! the garment bag
pattern from my book!) and with a 55" width, a mere pair of pinking
shears would give you a wipeable tablecloth in about 7 minutes.
Multi-tasking. Have I sold it?
I'm sold. So far, the oilcloths will be offered in the two prints shown, the
Small Gathering/Citrus print and the
Fortune/Sun
print, but bang some pots and pans together and demand we do more, and
we may do more. I plan to put together a cutesy downloadable idea sheet
for these goods to inspire some fun projects for you. They are trailing
the rest of the goods in arrival, but should be here sometime this
month. Oh-and the patterns should be shipping this month too!
A wonderful clog and we recommend wearing these.
