I love this clutch by Shilvy. She’s a very talented handbag designer. I don’t know when she plans to re-stock this item =(. I wonder what she is up to these days? There’s a bunch of items that I would love to see re-stocked or brought back because they are a “must have.” See pic …
Hosiery Splurge vs. Steal
While Wolford is known for their ultimate luxury in hoisery, if you are looking for quality less the more expensive price tag, try Victoria’s Secret and Kushyfoot as two great alternatives.

Japonica Shoes by Japan’s Barclay

For Sophie‘s fans, the stores in New York or online are: Bloomingdales (Soho, NY, not sure if the flagship store on East 59th. Street carries them?) Saks Fifth …
Valentino & Lace
While I’ve seen some blogs which negatively criticize Valentino’s attempt to marry leather and lace, there are those who will agree with me that they’ve done a fabulous job creating elegance with a hard edge. Here are some examples: The first time I saw a bag from this particular collection was at a boutique in …
My Top Favorite Handbags
There are so many brands I like! I will try really hard to narrow it down to my top 12 =). I know it’s usually top 10, but that’s virtually impossible for me.

Bluefly.com
I’m so mad at Bluefly.com @#%! I experienced a few problems while using their site to order a pair of shoes. It was so weird e.g. both their search bar and shopping cart weren’t working right. To make a long story short, I’m stuck with a pair of Pedro Garcia Noa Pumps- a pending order …
