Have you all had a chance to check out Rachael Oglesby's new book Crochet Boutique? I was super flattered when Lark Crafts contacted me to review this lovely fiber arts book. As a crocheter myself I was excited to take a look at what Rachael put together. Her patterns are really easy to read and so many of the designs are over the top cute! Be sure to pick up a copy for yourself, perfect time to get some holiday gifts made or just make yourself some cute warm wears.
Don't know how to crochet, or don't have the time? Head over to Rachael's shop and pick up some ready made items from her directly:)
On top of having the chance to get a peek into this great book I was sent this classy button clutch to giveaway to a lucky manzanita reader. You can see how I styled it here.
To Enter simply follow manzanita via bloglovin, hellocotton, twitter, facebook then leave a comment saying you did so and also let us know how you would style the buttom clutch!
This giveaway will be open until October 17th and the winner will be announced shortly after.







It looks so beautiful!

That book looks great, I'll need to check it out and crochet some cute things. I'm now following your blog on twitter. I would pair that clutch with a yellow sweater, dark denim, and some cute red flats. simple, elegant and cozy.

I, I follow, I follow you... on facebook now. And I would style that lovely little thingy with my old Doc Martens, some lace tights and knitted stockings, a quirky grandma dress and a nice parka. Then I would go for a walk by the seaside (at night!) and wait for some Northern Lights to appear. While sitting there, I would put my hands into the clutch to keep them warm!

Love love love! And! Since I've recently been so inspired by crochet, I picked the hooks up again and I've been at it since last night! I hope I don't put them away for too long again and I definitely want to pick up a copy of that book!
In any case, I can't help but to enter for this give-away, to further inspire me of course ;)
I follow you everywhere!
I would style this clutch so many ways, I think it would be so cute to add some whimsy to a plaid shirt/skinny jeans and boots type of outfit! Or wear it with a simple dress and some flats. It's so darn versatile!
