Happy Monday Kiddos!
In addition to introducing you to a fabulous local, American-made handbag company, I’m also taking over Because of Jackie today… busy, busy.
Let’s get right down to business, shall we?
Juana Morreale says that growing up everything in her house was handmade and made from scratch. Her mother taught her how to sew when she was a little girl and it quickly became her passion. In 2012, she established JEM DESIGN, a line of unique clutches and evening bags all made by hand, with love, in Rochester, NY. She hand-selects beautiful fabrics, uses only high-quality hardware frames, and employs the best sewing techniques to create lovely, well-made pieces that are sure to add some oomph to any outfit.
Like this one:

I think I might need her in my life…
I have a JEM DESIGN envelope clutches and it is one of my favorite pieces. It is well made, and I love the fabric. This metallic snake print is so unique and so wearable. I get complimented on it all the time.
Here I am taking a few #selfies with said clutch in Fahsye last spring:
Juana just added some great envelope clutches to her shop, that are just perfect for spring. I was thrilled when she offered to give one away to a lucky reader!

I need the blue black python wristlet like a fat kid needs cake!! Love it!
I love the SPRING envelope clutch in coral
I love the wedding black clutch!
Oh no! It looks like the shop is closed for vacation, but from what I can see in your post, I really like that blue/purple envelope clutch (the third one in the pic of the four clutches!)
Oh no! That’s a bummer! Her envelope clutches are fabulous!
I followed the link, but all it I could see was that Jem was on vacation and the site was shut down. I did make her etsy page a favorite. I do love the bag you are modeling.
Great giveaway.

Can’t see her designs but just from those photos you’ve shown above…WANT. I love that sparkly number you are rocking because I need something like that to go out with!
