SHOLDIT
Your Hands Free Clutch Purse Scarf Wrap Handbag Replacement!
My life changed last week when I received a SHOLDIT, which is a handsfree clutch purse that I can actually turn into a scarf wrap. I really needed something like this. My life on the "go" was beginning to get messy and I looked … messy! You should see me walking out of the house, holding my sons hand, and the other caboodles and oodles of ‘stuff’. No, I take that back. No one should experience the mess that I am in that walk from the door to our car across the street. It is … humiliating.
Lately I have been starting to wonder what life will be like with more than one child to worry about; hand to hold; toys to drag around. Life as a work-at-home mom blogger has its perks, but I am always on the go and have an army of tech gadgets to drag around.
On top of my tech-savvy lifestyle addiction, I have to remain easy to contact and get ahold of whether it be for MamaNYC, my web design and marketing business, or motherhood reasons. This means that I have to have my cellphone easy to reach and accessible without scrambling through my large and messy handbag.
I received a gorgeous SHOLDIT, which is a clutch purse that actually transforms into a scarf with a pocket to hold your ‘stuff’. So far, I am beginning to feel much more confident when I leave the house. I have a lot of stuff, but only a handful of items that I need at ALL times. The SHOLDIT makes it very easy to keep the items that I need in a very easy to reach pocket, which MEANS I have two hands that are free!
I can actually hold my sons hand – and something else in the other hand. I’ll admit, I do feel strange and unusual with a free hand. After 3+ years of lugging around large and bulky handbags, I am definitely going to need some getting used to this – but that is NOT a bad thing!
Every woman knows how that goes!
Your handbag carries everything you need from lipstick to a hot glue gun…
… but you only need a cellphone, lipgloss, credit card, and maybe a small wad of cash.
I am tired of digging through that large handbag just to find my cellphone, or my credit card. I don’t trust my jean pockets, but I also don’t wear pocketed pants all the times (so where can I put my personal belongings?! - Hey! Remember, I am a mom.. so I can’t reach into strange places to find my phone!) Luckily, I can throw my new SHOLDIT around my shoulders or neck and have my ‘stuff’ in a very easy to access pocket!
Confused and want to see the SHOLDIT in action? Of course you want to know more! Watch the video below to help you understand how many different positions, styles, and options there are while working with the SHOLDIT. You’ll be surprised by what you learn!
There are eight different patterns to choose from, but I selected Sandstorm SHOLDIT. The design and look is perfect to match most outfits, but I am sure I can get away with wearing my SHOLDIT with anything I put together (hopefully!). Sandstorm’s main colors are tan and black, so any solid color outfit will definitely compliment perfectly!
Switching my SHOLDIT scarf wrap into an easy to carry clutch is very easy! The entire wrap fits quite easily into the pocket as I transform back into a clutch, which still has plenty of room for my personal items!
Head on over to SHOLDIT.com and take a peak around at their designs. Each pattern is unique and there is something to match every outfit in your closet!

Ok, that is just WAY too cool.
Ok this is seriously an amazing idea! I always hate it when my husband and I are going out and I’m carrying a clutch. It is so annoying to not have my hands free to do anything! I love that using the scarf lets me carry a clutch over my shoulder! Wow!

Someone is thinking outside the box….or should I say, outside the ‘bag’ ! This is a clever idea and I know that I would love it and love having my hands/arms free.
This is an amazing product. I have always had a million things on my mind when I should be concentrating. Because of this I cannot tell you how many times I’ve actually forgotten my purse. I know, no excuse. This is definitely something I have to go check out on their web site. Loved the video.
Thanks so much for sharing. This would have been perfect for me when my 7 were growing up.

Very clever idea – reminds me of this cool purse my parents got my daughter while on vacation – it is a long ribbon but when you zip it up it turns into a purse. Not as functional when in ribbon form but still a fun display for show and tell.
