Hermes Herbag is a discontinued tote that comes with two different bodies that you can swap the leather top between.
Fun, but I just love that rubberized canvas roughing up an otherwise classic Kelly shape. This Hermes Herbag — in 40 cm with palladium hardware — is my MacBook’s new mate.
Ask Pam Anderson, P Spice, and whoever’s hot on The Hills — Birkins are boring, dahling…
Maggie Ward is very ready-to-wear that’s like your best friend: you want everyone to understand how wonderful Maggie Ward is, without having to share her. I’d love to tell you how Maggie Ward takes iconic sportswear — sweatpants, dolphin shorts, sweatshirts — and spins them out of sueded silk, artisanal Japanese fabric, and washable stretch leathers. I’d love for you to understand all the effort that goes into designing this effortless chic –
Without having to see another chick in it.
But you’re going to buy this jumpsuit, too, because Maggie Ward re-imagined this classic right –
This Maggie Ward jumpsuit is that most choice Charlie’s Angels jumpsuit, only made more timeless in a subtle silk.
Tell me before you wear it next time, so we can avoid some blushing…
I didn’t see this Black Fleece shift dress at the Black Fleece boutique in New York, otherwise I would have put my Black Fleece knit suit back on the rack and found a matching jacket for this shift.
Made of pure camel hair in Italy, this Black Fleece dress is detailed with horn buttons on the back, and its straight skirt falls below the knee.
Ditch the obvious Hervé — it’s infinitely sexier to be so conservatively covered up in something the color of your skin…
The concept of Black Fleece is smart: Brooks Brothers gone bro. But a kitten-heeled, peep-toed spectator pump? I get the wit, but that heel is more dated, ironic or not…
I’m over extra-padded, peepshow-style platforms. As much as I love a little Beyonce theater, real style is about choosing fashion that frames your beauty, not distracts from it. So I dig Brian Atwood “Candy” sandals — the shoe’s minimalist architecture isn’t about distracting glitz, but making your leg longer. You’ve got to have at least one heel high enough to style your leg a straight line from the tips of your toes to your thigh — that’s heaven.
3½” of stiletto won’t do that, though. Skip this version of Brian Atwood “Candy” sandals in black, and buy the taller Brian Atwood “Candy” sandal in white, for less dough. If five inches of pure stiletto sounds intimidating, buy the shoe anyway, and wear it around your room, without anyone or anything else…
I bought this Brian Atwood “Candy” slingback in black last week when I was in New York. I walked into Intermix in Soho sporting a pair of black patent Lerre sandals, peeptoe’d with a slingback, but walked out in these Brian Atwood “Candy” sandals. I hate owning two of a kind of anything — and I’ve also got a pair of black Givenchy slingback peeptoes — but these Brian Atwood sandals are more simply sophisticated, and that extra inch of heel stretches your legs another mile.
Now I want the white patent Brian Atwood “Candy” slingback. Five inches of pin-thin stiletto, strapped to your feet with two slivers of patent leather. It’s that architecture — and how it restructures your walk — that gets me…

Wanting: Vintage Chanel Suit, 1960sI’ve a uniform: a custom-made silk jersey tank dress, a fancy Hermes fanny pack (pictures of my pet to come, my pets), and four-inch Giuseppes. This keeps me overdressed by most LA standards, but lately I’ve been hunting for a suit to wear to rare meetings. And what beats investing in vintage Chanel? What i love most about vintage Chanel suits are their no-one-else-knows luxury, like that gold chain-weighted hem… |

Wearing: Vintage Chanel Suit, 1950sVintage Chanel suits purr power, like the engine of a Phantom, like the Godfather petting a kitten. Sure, the brass buttons give this Chanel suit away, but the boxy blazer skims over a blouson top, tucked into a loose skirt, all in a basic black that only serves as a background to your own beauty. This vintage Chanel suit says you don’t need to say anything… |

Hating: Vintage Chanel Suit, 1980sThe whole appeal of a vintage Chanel suit isn’t so much in a super flattering silhouette as in the quiet luxe of it, the economy of its elegance, the subtlety of its sex. So why bother with a boring red suit tagged Chanel? Thanks for nothing, Karl… |
