“What do you get the girl who has everything?” is an eye-rollingly cliché question, but if it’s one for which you need a serious answer this holiday season (which is hurtling straight at us), then you should probably refer to the recently launched Moda Operandi Holiday Collection. It includes everything from diamond-encrusted clutches to an elusive Hermès Himalayan Birkin, all deliverable in time for the holidays. The exotic accessories alone add up to nearly half a million bucks.

Bergdorf Goodman’s Holiday Catalog Gives Us a Sneak Peek at Givenchy Resort 2015
Last week, several of Givenchy’s Resort 2015 bags appeared on Bergdorf Goodman’s website as available for pre-order. They were removed shortly thereafter, and although I don’t know why, I know that I’d like them to come back so that I can share them with you–they were great, and there’s a new floral for everyone to obsess over. In the meantime, we’re left with only the Givenchy Croc Paneled Nightingale Bag to carry us through, and it’s a pretty neat bag in its own right.

Introducing the Christian Dior Be Dior Bag
Amanda and I share an adoration for Christian Dior bags; the only problem is there isn’t exactly a plethora of information on the brand’s bags for curious Internet shoppers. Yes, the brand’s website is has been updated with more information, behind the scenes details and campaign images than it used to have, but it doesn’t offer bags for sale or pricing information, and neither does any other online retailer. That’s made Dior bags a bit mysterious to most accessories lovers.
The Many Bags of Jaime King
We recently spotted Jaime King carrying a Dior bag that we think is about to become quite popular, and that sparked our curiosity: what else does the model-turned-actress have in her handbag stash? As it turns out, the answer to that question is quite varied. Check out Jaime’s bags below and help us name a few pieces we couldn’t identify!

In this week’s edition of Want It Wednesday, we’re looking at all the bits, bobs, wallets and leather goodies we’d love to load into our handbags (and onto ourselves) now that fall has arrived.
Grey or Pink? Help Me Pick a Givenchy Antigona
Well, I am officially a broken record. I’ve loved the Givenchy Antigona from the moment I first saw it and continued to go back and forth with myself over buying one. I waited so long I was thinking I didn’t want one, I hate getting a bag after it’s reached mass consumption (similar to what … Read more
Fendi’s Monster Peekaboo is Back for Another Season of Staring
