Get Ready for Prada

In a recent disclosure, Prada announced that it will be going public in 2008! That means that it will be listed on the stock exchange in Milan in the first few months of the new year. If you have ever wanted to really be part of Prada, now is your chance. The Italian based company […]

Prada Spring/Summer 2008

I can’t say that I hate this collection, but it may really have to grow on me before I say that I love it. There were a few really great pieces. The dress in the first picture below is beautiful. I love the cut and the colors are amazing. There were some pieces, however, that […]

Prada 2008 Shoe/Boot Collection in Milan

Now, I love really cool shoes. Actually I love shoes, boots, flats, anything that sets off whatever else I decide to wear. The shoes are normally always my first choice for outfits, and I build from there. When I saw these new shoes from Prada for 2008, I fell in love. These are so unique! […]

Fall Shoes: Cap-Toe Heels

Cap-Toe Heels invoke serious 1940’s glamour. Think color blocks, clean lines and ultra-shiny, patent leather tips.
*
Try matching cap-toe heels with a smart suit (a la 1940’s), slim pencil skirt or long wool slacks. Sling backs will give you a more contemporary look, while the classic pump or a Mary Jane style will compliment that retro […]

The End of the Prada Auction: Paillette Prevails

Over the last three weeks, we’ve been reporting on the Prada sample auction (back links here and here), an event put together to raise money for Fondazione San Raffaele, a medical research facility in Italy, and showcase some one-of-a-kind Prada items that never made it to the runway. My favorite is still the now long-gone […]

Getting Ready to Fall

Yes, they’re all styles we’ve seen come down the catwalks months ago, but it’s nice to see the fall ready-to-wear collections at a time of year where they’re actually starting to hit the shelves (I know, it’s still July, but I’m not the one with the marketing plan). It also got me excited for autumn […]

Prada Auction Continues & I Look for a Thousand Euros

Last week, we were all over the announcement of a Prada samples’ auction for charity. Now, we’re almost halfway through and every Monday, Wednesday and Friday (the days they put new items up for auction), I get all excited and giddy to see what’s next. I was a little disappointed by some of the bags […]

Items are updated every Monday, Wednesday and Friday and they’re […]

Prada Napa Chevron Antic Handbag (hot!)

Prada’s 2006 fall collection is HOT. Right, we all know that, I shouldn’t be wasting my time telling you that, you want pictures, and so on… Right, I got that, but I would like to spend some time on explaining to you why I don’t think this amazing Prada Napa Chevron Antic Handbag (amazing = […]

Oh Kirsten

I stumbled upon this post on The Bag Blog today about this photo:
….. “Why on earth would Kirsten Dunst be carrying around almost the exact same Vera Bradley bag (or worse, a Vera knock off) that I myself had circa 2000? Now at the time I was pleased as punch with my little cotton bag. […]
