A while back I mentioned that unsymmetrical objects nearly drive me up the wall. I was recently at a work meeting and my co-worker set up our ‘props’ so to speak. The set up was not symmetrical on the table and I felt an awful twitch and sense of OCD come over my body. Nevertheless … Read more
Hermes signifies classic style and elegance. Yet on the Paris runway, I was thinking that JCrew was there rather than the iconic Hermes. The Hermes Spring 2007 collection hit the boardwalk-like-runway of Paris and delivered a less-than-stellar line up of beachy wear, and casual kickbacks, along with tracksuits. Yikes. What I paid attention to closely … Read more
When it comes to Jean Paul Gaultier, you never know what he may have up his sleeve. Celebrating his 30 year anniversary he made his prescense more than known on the runway of Paris. The Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2007 close up collection was fun and quirky and totally over-the-top. I will leave it to … Read more
John Galliano toned it down in Paris with the Christian Dior Spring 2007 Collection. While his line was nothing flashy, the simplicity and clean lines worked for me. Sometimes it is nice to look at something that is not too noisy or busy. The Dior Handbags were “gimmick-free chain-handled handbags” that sported the same shape … Read more
Right when you arrive at a hotel, you expect the bellhop to be at your service. As a child I remember thinking it was really neat to have the bellhop take our bags to our room. If the bellhop was really nice, he would let me ride on the bag carrier. Louis Vuitton had an … Read more
Even sexy people have their not so sexy moments. Brooke Burke has graced the cover of many magazines nearly nude but sometimes she wants to be like the rest of us; you know, stick out her tongue at her daughter. This picture cracks me up but the other part of the picture I zoomed in … Read more
Any anti-animal fur person that reads this site needs to turn their head now. I am just a messenger reporting the handbag news. Luxist spotted this furry number earlier, and for some odd reason I could not not post about it (double negative makes a positive?) The Cynthia Rowley Crossbody Fur Bag has one of … Read more
The style tip of the day is: wear animal prints this season but never mix match animal prints. If you wear an animal print dress, pair it with simple heels. If you opt for an animal print bag, then steer clear of other prints on your clothing. It sounds like I am stating the obvious, … Read more
Today I decided it was time to try on boots. We all see boots on the legs of models, celebs, and in the magazines. While I am like every other woman, I still think I am in ok shape (minus the love-handles and UTF – upper thigh fat). One aspect of my body I have … Read more
Every season Belen Echandia selects a Bag of the Season and sends one lucky girl a Golden Ticket email. The Golden Ticket entitles its recipient to the Bag of the Season in her choice of colour. The Bag of the Season for AW 2006 is this unique cowhide metallic purse with removable chain strap. It … Read more
Ok so these pictures are a tad old, but either way Victoria Beckham looks gorgeous in both and is rocking out a bag that has made it to the celeb radar as hot hot hot. Upon first glance, the Marc Jacobs Leopard Chain Link Satchel is a bit overpowering for me with the leopard print … Read more
Sunday of last week, Chicago Tribune’s Sandra Jones wrote an article about huge handbags being hot this season. What excites us the most is that our very own Purse Blog got a glorious mention! How very exciting. Turns out, the Tribune owns the Sun Sentinel, so they ran the same story in today’s newspaper down … Read more
