I can’t jump, can barely win a game of P-I-G, and don’t follow the NBA closely at all, but what I do know is that the outfit and bag game coming and going from the games feels better than the game itself. I recently shared the bags of my home team, the Miami Heat, and now it is time to delve into more of the NBA players. We are still in the midst of the playoffs, and some of the players… Source ..read more

This weekend is Mother’s Day, and while it is technically a holiday, I don’t love calling it one as it’s more like a day of remembrance for mothers to receive extra attention and acknowledgment. But I’ll take it. Being a mom is easily the most challenging yet rewarding role I have ever had, and as my kids get older, they are equally as excited to celebrate me, making it all the more enjoyable.

With the possible exception of Chloë Sevigny, there are few within the New York it-girl canon whose level of fame has managed to transcend the city’s boundaries across the country to Hollywood and, later, onto worldwide acclaim. There are even fewer among them who have since receded from the public eye, instead bringing us one of the most influential luxury brands of today that… Source ..read more

It’s Mother’s Day, and despite becoming one this past year, I still can’t come up with the words to describe how much of a life-altering experience it’s been. The enormous task of keeping a child alive and healthy has taken me from being a reasonably stylish and carefree woman into a sweatpants-clad zombie, living from one feeding to the next. Motherhood has taken many things from me… Source ..read more

As a mom of a 5 and 7-year-old, I feel like a few things about Mother’s Day remain true and can seem conflicting and confusing. First, I want a break while also being given loving attention. Secondly, a handmade gift from the kids is the best, but I also won’t turn down a luxury good. It’s me, hi, I’m the problem, it’s me. With that being said, there’s still time to gently remind those… Source ..read more

I have a confession: I have never owned a Longchamp bag. Never, not one. Not a Le Pliage when everyone else seemed to own at least one. Not a leather bag from the brand. Nothing. It’s not because I haven’t liked the brand, I simply didn’t find the right bag at the right time. I do own many bags, so finding a bag that I feel like I need should also have a purpose. Longchamp is the brand that… Source ..read more

Perhaps it’s simply human of me, but I’ve always been enamored by the things I can’t have, or tend to fall out of love with the things I do. Sometimes, it’s that one Mr. Big that’s emotionally unavailable, in a sea of the countless Aidan Shaws who are; or the one bag that got away, over the several (and sometimes many) that didn’t. Our purse-collecting journey, therefore… Source ..read more

My and Vlad’s short trip to NYC a couple of weeks ago was refreshing in every single way. The weather, the events, and the bag-watching, of course. We already rounded up the first installment of the bags we spotted (the majority on the Upper East Side), and now we have an additional batch of great bags. This photo set includes some brands we don’t usually see (I’m looking at that first… Source ..read more

This has been the year of professional sports players being recognized for their abilities within their sport and as fashion powerhouses. The getting to and from sporting venues has become a fashion show, and I am here for it. Right now, the Miami Heat are in the playoffs (with a make-or-break game tonight) against the Celtics, and though I am not someone who follows the NBA closely… Source ..read more

Founded in Rome by Sotirio Bulgari, a Greek silversmith, in 1884, Bulgari was established on the Greco-Roman heritage of its namesake founder. Recognized first for its exquisite jewelry, the Bulgari family has defined a distinct aesthetic and an unparalleled reputation of Italian craft in its 140 years in business. The brand’s early days were defined by Bulgari’s approach to retail and the… Source ..read more
