If I look like I just stepped off a yacht every day, I’m doing my job right. My preferred style has always been nautical, and the stripes, dark denim, and understated chic themes of today’s trends have made it pretty easy.

While black has been the go-to shade for most of my closet, I have made a conscious effort to include more navy lately, and I am happy to report that effort’s positive effects on my dressing, as a whole. I just get excited when I can walk out the door without wearing almost all to all black.

It’s the little things.

And while we’re on the subject, I have a little something I think I should mention. Now, the term “little” is relative, you see, as the Hampton Oversized Clutch is certainly not small, hence the name. The clutch is huge. But, compared to my normal bags… iz leetle.

Which, I suppose, makes sense, seeing as it’s a clutch and not a “normal bag.” But if my normal bag is to an elephant as anyone else’s normal bag is to, you know, a very medium-sized mammal, then the Hampton Oversized Clutch would be my elephant clutch.

I’m not good with animal names. The parents skipped that part of my development and started me immediately on soccer positions. (“Terryl, whaaat is Mr. Keeper known aaas…?” ”Impenetrable wall!”) Moving on.

Available in navy or white, this clutch will bring your nautical dreams to reality, even if that means just looking like a sailor. Or a sailor’s well-intentioned-but-really-just-tans-while-boating girlfriend. Just remind him who will carry his gum wrappers once your hit the shore again. You know what I’m talking about.

So, if you’re in the market for an elephant or a huge clutch, take a gander at the Hudson. The woven little envelope is perfect for sticking right under your arm and conquering the open seas. Or the grocery. Either way.
