Hi I'm Bubs, welcome to my home on the web!

Thanks for stopping by! You have stumbled upon the personal website of Sidney Collins (aka Bubs). I'm a 24-year old student at the University of Alabama studying Computer Science and Mathematics. When I'm not busy programming you'll probably find me writing, drawing, reading, shopping, eating, or playing Monopoly.

Patchwork Clutch

Jessica Simpson's Patchwork Clutch

Does anyone know where I can find this clutch?

I think it may be Dolce & Gabbana, which is way out of my price range x_x  I found a similar bag by Nine West:

Nine West Patchwork Clutch

It’s not as cute as Jessica’s, but close enough.  The yellow fabric in the background is from the dress I’m wearing with the bag.  I also bought these shoes (in Dark Yellow Croc) to go with the dress and bag.  The shoes should arrive by Tuesday.

I’m currently living in my hometown while I take Physics at a local community college since I heard Physics was a bitch at Alabama :lol:  I detest my hometown.  There’s absolutely nothing to do and it’s chocked full of rednecks (okay, that’s a bit harsh.)  Also, there’s nowhere to shop.  Florence, AL is the last place in the country to recieve the latest styles.  Just the other day I went in a local boutique, which was filled with the best of last year’s fashions (at outrageous prices, I might add).  The annoying saleslady followed me around the entire time shoving ugly outfits at me left and right.  I told her I was looking for something more fitted and she had the audacity to tell me, “Well sweetie, that’s just not the style right now.” It seems to me that fitted dresses and full skirts are the craze right now, not maternity clothes (excluding maxidresses, which nowhere around here carries anyway.)

PS - Did I ever mention that a lady asked me if I were pregnant over the Christmas holidays?  My hatred for tent tops probably stems from this.

    Don’t worry about people saying things like that - I’ve had my very own aunt tell me before that I looked pregnant! Yep, she figured it out really quick that I was pissed! ROFL!

    I know nothing about fashion so I can’t really help you there. XD

    AUGH…asking someone if they are pregnant is one of the RUDEST things ever to ask! It’s none of anyone’s business and if the woman IS pregnant then SHE will announce it…it doesn’t need to be petitioned. :P If the answer is a “no” then they would have successfully made someone feel super self conscious and brought down their self esteem quite quickly. Even if they were RIGHT…I’d still feel pissed. GRR…

    Good you found it. I can stop looking for it. OMG! $1000 for a Clutch! Whoa, are you going to get it? You know, it may not be patchwork or that name but I noticed at Target that they had some really cute ones that were about $30. That is still more then I pay, but I am not you.

    Pregnant? Next time they ask you that, just look them straight in the eye & tell them that yes you are having ten of them. Do they want to come help you take care of them? See if that shuts them up. It has always worked for me. Trust me Bubs, you don’t look pregnant.
