Corto Moltedo Susan Deco Clutch: Love It or Hate It?

While perusing the Net-a-Porter.com sale extravaganza I saw this little funny looking Corto Moltedo Susan Deco Clutch, $358 (originally $895).

While perusing the Net-a-Porter.com sale extravaganza I saw this little funny looking Corto Moltedo Susan Deco Clutch, $358 (originally $895). While my New Years outfit is of the black and white variation I wondered if I would wear this clutch tonight. It's interesting and I love deco-styling but it's a little too bright pearly white. This mother-of-pearl clutch has three gold spheres on the front, a detachable gold chain strap with a signature C and star shape in center, a magnetic fastening and black satin lining. What do you think? Love or Hate?

Jennifer Lopez

Little Ms. Rock n' Roll: The Scent

I do believe Little Ms.

I do believe Little Ms. Rock n' Roll would enjoy this ultra feminine floral musk fragrance Glow After Dark by JLO. It has been five years since Jennifer Lopez launched Glow, which was a huge hit, and this scent has a similar fragrance base. However, it is intended to be more reminiscent of a fun, sexy, wild girls night out rather than the soft, gentle, sensual original scent.

It contains notes of: lychee melon, sparkling mandarin, white cherry, passion fruit, creamy jasmine, pink peony, freesia lace, Moroccan rose, orange flower, musk and tree moss. The bottle is sleek and slender with a mirrored chrome finish. To really give it a night on the town effect, it has signature black and silver JLO jewelry that drapes around the nape. JLO Glow After Dark is $45 for 1.7oz, Eau de Toilette spray and the night bright body lotion is $27.50.

Go Fab Finding and help me put together a drop dead New Years outfit for this personality. And you have to be quick as I'll be piecing the outfit together today and revealing it at the end of the day! Don't forget to tag your items with RocknRoll. Party on!
