Object of Desire: Anndra Neen Cage Clutch

December 21, 2011 Accessories

This clutch from Anndra Neen is so deceptively simple, & so covetable. I’d put my things inside a small black velvet pouch, the better to show off the cage work. Or perhaps I’d just pare everything down to a phone, a Tom Ford lipstick & a credit card.

And if the fluoro is […]

Object of Desire: the Cross Torero fountain pen

November 1, 2010 LLG Fashion

Object of Desire: Erdem’s Argenta dress

June 14, 2010 LLG Fashion

Perfection. Erdem’s cap sleeved Argenta dress has beautiful, intricate floral embroidery on the bodice and a fantasy print on the shoulders. It’s a gloriously flattering cut for women with a bust — something that is as rare as hen’s teeth on the the runways. And it has pockets! Clever slit pockets on the sides, along […]
