Simply adorable in brown satin with a golden heart zip charm all wrapped up in a chocolate brown patent leather bow, the Moschino Heart Purse will certainly steal…well, your heart! This hard-cased, heart shaped evening bag is pretty tiny. It probably won’t hold more than some cash, a credit card, car keys, and maybe—maybe—a lipstick. It’s a minimal little purse to say the least, meaning that if you want to carry a purse that looks like it might be made for a five-year-old, you’ll have to start resisting the urge to carry any more than a fruit flavored lip gloss and a few gummy bears in your purse. There may be room for one of those candy necklaces, but that would be pushing it.
The fact that the purse is brown satin, not pink, red, or lavender doesn’t really fit either. It’s almost like it was meant to be cute, but not too cute. And after shaping it like a heart, the designers at Moschino decided to make it brown and put a long shoulder strap on it to take away some of the romance. Sure, brown is the color of chocolate, but it’s the color of a lot of other unpleasant things as well. I’d hardly call brown a color of romance, but if it reminds you of something sweet, go for it. It can be yours for $1,178.95 at Zappos Couture.

Equally cute is this candy-coated is the Betsey Johnson Candy Shop Small Clutch.

Light blue with a heart closure, this Stone Mountain Ascot Heart Checkbook Clutch adds a girly touch to a utilitarian product. I don’t know anyone who still carries a checkbook—if I can’t use my debit card, I’m not shopping—but the length of this checkbook clutch is still good for carrying paper bills. As much as I use my card, it’s always a good idea to have at least a little cash on you for emergencies. The Ascot is made from leather, and is just $40 at ebags.com.
