Kelly on a string


Purseblog


Disclaimer: I can't afford this bag. BUT, I love it still. Meet the Hermes Jypsiere shoulder bag. For guy or gal, it's part messenger, part Kelly. Lady like meets super functional. I found it on Hermes and researched the DL on purseblog.com. Looks like it's from Fall 2008. There are two sizes and plenty of good colors - I like deep blue. For a mere $7,600, it's a steal...for Hermes.

pink perfection! exactly how i feel today... a little rebellious, a little french but totally relaxed. hot pink and heather grey is one of my new fav color combinations. if my closet magically laided out my clothes every day based on my mood this spring Isabel Marant is it. today is easy: work then meeting lovely amanda for patio cocktails...:)

New Arrivals

After reading WWW Hearts: June Obsessions Sienna Miller, I came across Australian cool kid seller of amazing shoes Solestuck... why not love a company whose sole (hehe) mission in life is ridding  the world of ugly shoes one pair at a time?? Definitely a trend loving fashionita's site. As shoe and handbag girl through and through, it's no doubt I peed my pants swooning over TONS of Jeffery Campbell. His stuff, made with love in LA, is just fun, fun, fun.

A few of my favorites...

up all night...

...thinking about Dries Van Noten's Fall 2010 collection. It is the #1 inspiration for my own Fall wardrobe this season. Slouchy sweat shirts with lady like full skirts... yes please! Airy floral patterns in rich blues and greens... any day! Sumptuous leopard print scarves... absolutely! It's like all the best parts of dressing as a man collided with the sexy, sporty goodness of dressing as a modern woman.

deconstructing birkin



I love that Lady Gaga wrote on her Hermes Birkin with a sharpie and then had her fans sign it while touring in Japan recently. Gaga also turned her black Birkin into a leather voodoo purse (see below) after piercing the hell out of it with spikes...?! It's ugly (in a pretty way) and going to snag the shit out of everything in a 10 mile radius, but I like her take on a sort of untouchable "it" bag. What else would Gaga do with a $10,000 handbag... maybe cut it up and make a hat next time?

I have a Louis Vuitton Neverfull PM. This bag you will see EVERYWHERE. Didn't occur to me when I bought it. Gaga, you crazy genius: how can I make my LV as cool as your Birkin? My friend Taurus Burns is a Detroit artist - maybe I could commission him to do something cool with it? OR I could do something like this? I would absolutely bedazzle my Birkin!!
