New Arrivals: Designer Bags!
Posted on: March 20, 2008
Pa-Tou-Tou Canasta Bag, price tag: $175.00
New designer styles arrived this morning in three main categories: wild exotics, bright colors & sexy clutches. As you now my heart is always on the clutches but it does not mean that I cannot appreciate a stylish satchel when I see one.
I am happy to see few styles from Pa-Tou-Tou displayed, as I am an old fan there. The second one which you could see here resembles a lot the much discussed Fold Over Clutch by Nine West.

Eco Nouveau is definitely a project worth your support not just for the fair cause but also for the solid contribution its artist do for fashion.
As per now the designers involved are Gary Harvey, Bahar Shahpar and Amanda Shi.
Just a quick reminder that Gary is the former Creative Director of Levi’s Europe, and have already debuted his eco-couture line during the London Fashion Week. His projects with Adidas, Stussy, Junya Watanabe and Vivienne Westwood also speak loud for what we can expect for him.
Bahar is a Brooklyn-based, self-taught with solid creative background on multimedia event production, fashion, and publishing. There is a lot going on around her these days although she stays focused on designing her S/S 2008 collection.
Amanda is the creative power behind AVITA – glamorous fashion line using sustainable materials as a way of maintaining a respect for the environment.
These guys went together to build up yet another much needed project supporting ecofashion.

New Arrivals: Dorothy Perkins
Posted on: December 26, 2007
Every week our friends at Dorothy Perkins announce the hottest and the boldest new styles. Here are the ones for this week. This week we have a pencil skirt, cardigan, breasted coat, neck top, a dress and pumps.
Black Pencil Skirt: £20.00. Quite elegant especially if combined with grey floral polo top and platform pumps per your choice.The belt finalizes it perfectly.
Purple Gathered Sleeve Cardigan: £18.00. The puffed sleeves definitely make that style. The buttoning is also very cute, I would wear it with black skinny jeans and grey leopard platform shoes.
Blue Double Breasted Coat: Was £40.00, Now £20.00. You could combine this cutie with either same black skinny jeans or a denim pencil skirt. This item is part of the 50% OFF sale in Dorothy Perkins at the moment.
Black & White Scoop Neck Top: £10.00. To avoid losing the magnet black and white look of the stripes I’d suggest getting this one with indigo skinny jeans and red round toe ankle boots. The ankle boots are also part of the sale so are now just £12.00!
Red Roll Neck Dress: Was £20.00, Now £12.00. The color of this acrylic dress is just adorable just make sure you won’t combine it with other strong colors to lose the effect. It’s also part of the DP sale.
Pewter Pointed Flats: £20.00. You know that the rounded toe flats were the last springs thing, this season we are into the pointed ones though. The silver always make your outfit elegantly simple.

Daily Fix Of the Day: Topshop
Posted on: December 16, 2007
It’s been a while since I gave you the last Daily Fix from Topshop, so here it is – the IT coat, the IT bag, and the IT dress!
Topshop will also give away a bag with “Topshop” embroidered on it which is just gorgeous for just make your holidays & shopping happier.
Topshop Woll Skirted Trench Coat: £135.00; here comes warm yet elegant solution for this season. The belted trench coat is a classic and it would surely be trendy next season, so here they are £135.00 well spend (and you are eligible to grab the Topshop bag as well!).
Topshop Patent Ring Trim Bag: £35.00; I am not into the purple, neither I am into the navy blue (and if I give it a serious thought I don’t have a single item in my closet in those, except one bag from Nine West that is a present from my sister) but you will admit that the design is gorgeous.
Topshop Stripe Spot Dress: £40.00; this dress is really interesting. It could be a hit or a miss depends only on what you combine it with. If you go with high heel pumps and a large bag (even the one above) there is a good chance you look like the aunty next door. But! If you go with dark leggings, ankle boots (preferably flat) and a clutch you are the queen of the night!

Since we are on the Christmas dresses subject, it would be a miss to neglect the new line of clothing and accessories in net-a-porter. Take a look at this satin dress from Mischino and you’ll know what I mean.
The line stresses on the dresses, but it also includes their respected accessories – a clutch from Bottega Veneta, a pair of golden Jimmy Coo slingbacks, Miu Miu patchwork tote, and my absolute favorite Pearl & Orb choker from Vivienne Westwood.
A gorgeous line, it definitely deserves your attention!

UGG: The Knitted Boots
Posted on: November 7, 2007
The UGG saga continues but it only affects the classic UGG style.
This year’s hit is actually the knitted UGG boots and for now there are no such harsh opinions like before. It is not entirely new trend as they have already been on Sienna Miller’s feet last year but let’s say that this fall is official. It’s even so official that they are already original and cheap versions.
Below are the UGG originals from uggaustralia.com for $100.00

Baby Phat Leather Trench Coat
Posted on: November 6, 2007
If you by any chance are attending a high profile hip-hop party in NYC with by-all-means-chic dress code the chances you are picking this trench coat is serious.
And here is why. Baby Phat by Kimora Lee Simmons is known world wide as the premiere female hip-hop brand for almost a decade and Kimora has merged the world of high fashion and hip-hop quite successfully.
She started with a denim collection back in 1998 and produced quite a phenomenon resulting an entire urban luxury movement.
So back to the hip-hop party. If you are really going to one, I’d suggest either knee-high boots like this or these ankle boots.
But if this is not the case you can easily combine them with the famous Tory Burch flat and add a luxury flavor in your everyday life.
The quilted trench coat is available from babyphat.com for $500.00

Wall London: The Felt Bag
Posted on: November 2, 2007
The variety of felted bags is enormous, but they usually cover the casual wearing. Interesting would be though what would you choose if you need it as a luxurious accessory.
The below bag is an interesting solution, although I am always a little bit concerned when it comes to firm handles.

The Original Hunter Wellies
Posted on: November 1, 2007
Wellies are big at the moment, I honestly believe it all started with the overwhelming mud at the Glastonbury Festival, but the trend might also have other roots.
Anyway, since everyone aged 15-25 eventually bought at least one pair this summer it’s natural that the who-was-first conversation started. Of course it was accompanied by the wellies price tag rising from £15.00 to $98.00 a pair during this period. For example this pair that obviously is the original:

I am horrified! Did you know that there is a possibility that in a century or two (or much less) we will all live on Venus??? This is what Global Warming means – 500C during the day and 300 athmospheres on us, and 98% CO2. But no worries there will be no “us” (except of course we evaluate for 50 years in a manner that allow us to actually live in 500C environment and breathe CO2, which I strongly doubt). I didn’t mean to be that harsh but it’s about our future and that of our children. Well, I am stopping here you got the point …
In this stressful state of mind I am happy when I come across a company like Remnant Clothing.
I prefer investing my candy cash in them, or others like them, thus investing in the future.
