About Me

My photo
I have always loved everything related with Fashion and in the last 5-10 years I have become even more interested in how fashion and technology can work together. In 2004 I started a web site selling designer bags and apparel for less, and in 2008 I took some time off to have kids. I have now launched the first ever NYC sample Sale APP that notifies the user of any and all sample sales/major retail sales within 1 mile of the user's location. User's can let the APP tell them where they can save up to 80% on all their favorite brands like, Prada, Fendi, DVF, Theory and so much more.

September 13th Missoni for Target






Finally we have actual images of what will be available for the Missoni collection at Target. Prices rage from $2.99 to $599.99 with most items costing around $40 and will be available from Sept. 13-Oct. 22nd and go the first day as items sell fast, at least that's what happened with the Calypso sale at Target.

Even though I don't really need a bike I love the Missoni bike how cool is that?! Also love the dishes and the button up Missoni sweater and the kids clothes can't be any cuter!

Take a look at the pictures and let me know what you think.

Target's done it again......Missoni for Target




Wow first Calypso and now Missoni at Target! My credit card is still recovering from all the cute stuff I got from the Calypso line at target. Apparently the Missoni campaign has done a pretty good job of keeping everything on the low down however we were able to snag a few pictures from the site (the fashionspot.com). The new line will be available starting September 13th and learn from me, get there the day the collection opens because I missed out on a lot of cute Calypso items.

The Missoni line will feature over 400 items and will include apparel and accessories for men and women, kids and home. I actually don't have anything Missoni but love the pattern although because it's such a distinctive pattern that you can't have all that many pieces and the pieces you do have you can't wear it a whole lot since it's unique, kind of like the Burberry plaid design.

What do you think?

New Boy Chanel Collection this Fall






I have one Chanel bag and have been eying another one called the Large flap over which I would like in beige but as of now it's only available in black. Do I need another black Chanel bag? Well maybe.....:)
Anyhoo this fall there's a whole new line of Chanel handbags coming out and none have the signature quilted look of Chanel. This new collection which was originally based on a hunting cartridge which Coco Chanel herself carried is inspired by the boyish charm she was know for.
I am still on the fence about this new collection I think I like the classic quilted look myself, however the red clutch is pretty fierce! These bags aren't cheap and range from $2,500 to $4,300 and will be available in September.

Prabal Gurung designs for J. Crew






The same designer who dressed such famous women like, Michele Obama, Demi Moore, and Oprah Winfrey to just name a few has now designed a collection for J. Crew. Seems like the "exploding bow" is the consistent theme in his designs. The collection ranges from $198 for a pair of tuxedo trousers to $450 for a tulle rose top with a mesh back, and only 50 pieces were created for some of the designs. What do you think? Can you see yourself wearing any of these pieces?
I like the white suit and the navy dress.

Tod's Tod's Tod's!!!



The blog of all blogs (www.bagsnob.com) for anything and everything you want to know about handbags had a recent blog post about this beautiful limited edition yellow Tod's D-Styling Bauletto bag ($1,665). In celebration of the re-opening of the Tod's store at South Coast Plaza apparently only 35 have been made and is exclusively sold at the South Coast Plaza Tod's store. If yellow isn't your color and you don't have $1,665 to spend on a handbag NYCchic.com is selling a similar classic Tod's bag in white very similar to the one Sara Jessica Parker is carrying while walking with her 8 year old son. Who said you can't wear white if you have kids?!


Take a look and let me know what you think?

Proenza Schouler PS1....




Proenza Schouler has come out with a new green version of their very popular PS1 satchel bag and I don't know I just don't get the hype about this bag. The color is cool but a satchel for $1,595? I have a friend that works in the handbag department at Barneys and she was telling these bags sell like hot cakes! I know the story of the 2 guys is pretty cool; they were students at Parsons and their final senior thesis turned out to be their first collection and was eventually bought by Barney's New York and their designs are now sold in over 100 exclusive retailers like Barneys, Bergdorf Goodman, Harvey Nichols. I mean that's a designer's dream and doesn't happen to very many people. Oh and in case you were wonder where they got the name from "Proenza Schouler" is their mothers' maiden names.


So what do you think? Is it worth the hype and money?

Rachel Zoe does it again






Stylist to the starts and now recently reality TV star Rachel Zoe has come out with a second Resort 2012 collection which she finished in February before her son, Skylar, was born. Her first collection did very well and is expected to make approximately $20 million but pales in comparison to Jessica Simpsons $1 Billion in sales! I have actually watched her show ( Rachel Zoe oh and yes I watched J. Simpsons reality show too!) and it's not bad. I think Brad is so cute and sweet but left Rachel Zoe and will be having his own reality show soon. OMG everyone has a reality show nowadays. I think Rachel looked much better while pregnant she needs a little fat on her bones she was way too skinny.

Anyway here are some images from her Resort 2012 collection. My favorite is the dark jeans, white shirt, brown bag and cream jacket. so cool. What's your favorite?
