Halston Heritage

2010.08.27

So, each year I buy myself a gift.. from me to me.  It always makes me smile and coming across it is always a fun adventure.  For the past year and change I have been saving for the Louis Vuitton Mahina Sac Bag.  It’s just a beautiful piece of leather and art and it starts at $2800 and goes up from there depending on what size you want.  I, of course always want the middle size.  We are talking a bit too much money.  Once we found out we were pregnant that bag and the Chanel 2.55 dreams went out the window.  For now. 

I was perusing through Bloomingdale’s new arrival secction for handbags and I almost fell off the couch.  What is before my eyes, the Halston Heritage Brandy bag.  It took my breath away.  It is a dead ringer for the Louis and I am not one to ever get a knock off or a copy, but since there is no way I am getting the Louis any time soon, I figure with my birthday coming, a sweet treat to me is in order.

What do you think of the bag?

Polyvore..

2010.02.21

So, today I was doing a whole lot of blog work.  I was flipping around the web and remembered a lil website called Polyvore.  This website is a genius idea!  (Wish I had thought of it.)  Anyway…this is the most amusing website for the men and women who, like me, are completely obsessed with putting outfits together.  Because I am a Plus Sized Diva and a complete Brand (read: Luxury) Whore I put together this Polyvore outfit for a Baby or Bridal Shower.  I would also wear this to a Sunday Brunch.  What do you think?

In honor of spring and the Francophile (read: Hermes, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, and YSL) in me…

Singin’ in the Rain

2009.11.13

AigleTomorrow I will be dancing and singing in the rain thanks to my Aigle Bergen Noir Wellington Rain boots that arrived today from the U.K.  The Welly Shop came through for me!  The customer service, quick emails and many answered questions produced my new Wellies.

They are a tad big, so I did a search on Google and it produced some interesting information.  The boots are available here in the U.S. from Shoebuy and they are about the same price as the Euro.  There is currently a 20% coupon for Shoebuy on their main page.

I am picturing these boots with skinny jeans, a great tunic sweater, scarf statement bag and a beautiful pair of sunglasses…

Rain can’t ruin my mood now!
