From September 30th to October 2nd, a limited edition Marc by Marc Jacobs shopper tote will be available at your local Holt Renfrew for $48 (regular Marc by Marc Jacobs shopper tote costs $58, so the price difference is really insignificant).  The bags were designed in support for the VisionSpring, which helps underdeveloped countries provide everyone with access to  low-cost eyeglasses. The tote looks just like the regular Marc by Marc Jacobs shopper with extra large print of “Marc by Marc Jacobs” on it, it comes in 4 colors – pink, blue, black (which is more mauve than black) and white. On Holt Renfrew website it says that the quantities will be limited, so if you want to make sure that you will get one  of the totes without any trouble, you just have to reserve yours online and pick it up at customer service some time between September 30th and October 2nd!

Below you can take a look at the regular Marc by Marc Jacobs shopper tote from Fall 2010 in both green and white leopard.

Cheers!

Object of Desire: BCBG Armor Ring.

BCBG-Fall-2010-Armor-Ring

I am not a fan of those huge bling-blings but BCBG’s fall armor ring is just too good to be true! I first saw it couple of days ago while picking up some sale items in their downtown store! I couldn’t believe my eyes – this ring looks just like so popular (but not so affordable) Loree Rodkin’s lacy bondage ring which, by the way,  retails for astonishing $20,000! The top ring is now available at BCBG’s website for $118. I guess I can stop dreaming about Rodkin’s creation since I can get my hands on BCBG’s variation!

Fall 2010 Lingerie Picks.

As the fall season approaches, our wardrobe suffers from some drastic changes, so does our lingerie drawer. When it’s hot and humid outside, we tend to put on less, but when the temperatures start to drop – it’s time for some layers to come in play!  That’s why it’s about the prefect time to think about lingerie! Soft fabrics, natural colors, light textures, absolute comfort are the things for which I am looking this season. So, here is the small selection of bras I like (on top)  and their cheaper versions (at bottom)!

Fall-2010-Bras

1. Black soft cup bra, from Ingenue collection by Kiki de Montparnasse, $225 at net-a-porter.com

2. Nude soft cup silk-chiffon bra, Jean Yu, $320 at net-a-porter.com

3. Black soft bra, Maja bra by Cheap Monday, $30 at karmaloop.com

Fashion for Less: Erickson Beamon vs Forever21.

Erickson Beamon earrings Vs Forever21

Ethnic inspired earrings are great for summer. They are essential while on the beach or just out in the country with friends. The earrings in the center (1), Erickson Beamon, are the best in its kind – not so African, not so Indian, but rather the great mix of both. The only bad thing about them is that they are astonishing $515 on net-a-porter! (imagine loosing them in the ocean or on the beach while playing volley!) So I thought why not to put together a list (inspired by Erickson Beamon piece) of similar styled earrings, all from Forever21 and all under $7! (I thing it’s not that bad to loose one of those – you can always quickly replace them without any damage to your budget)

(2) Forever21, $6.80

(3) Forever21, $6.80

(4) Forever21, $4.80

(5) Forever21, $6.80
