Lady On A Dime: Make A Fabulous Book Clutch

 
(Alice@97.3) - When I stumbled upon this precious Do-It-Yourself idea I was immediately drawn to it. Please do judge this look by it's cover, and let me present to you: THE BOOK CLUTCH.

Not only is the book clutch fairly easy to make, it is also very affordable, and you'll look sexy and smart wherever you'll go. Take a little trip to a local vintage book store, and pick a book you're inspired by. Natalie Portman decided to go with Lolita which is an amazing accessory to complete her romantic yet seductive look.

Here's what you need: a sexy/fun/beautiful book (not too large), a clasp (you can get them from a hardware store), strong paper glue, a ruler and an Xacto knife.
For further instruction check out this cool website on how to make your own book clutch.

Maybe one for your bestie too? Lots of fashion love!
