The Hunt for White Handbag Pt. 1

shopahol — Sat, 28 Feb 2009 15:26:38 +0000

So my bag lust continues… this time in pursuit of a white handbag. With spring fast approaching, I’m preoccupied with all things warm weather (even though now’s the best time to get deals on cold weather gear). Accordingly, I’m obsessed with finding the perfect white handbag.

I first that I wanted something prim and girly, but then I saw this fantastically slouchy shoulder bag at Endless.com. Look at how it’s studded, but under the leather. So cute! It’s on sale for less than half retail, but still out of my reach, sadly. I’m on a STRICT shopping diet. Sigh…

Yoox Sells Vintage, Too

shopahol — Mon, 23 Feb 2009 05:52:57 +0000

Online retailer Yoox.com is a great shopping corner for true fashion-heads. What I love about Yoox is that the selections are chosen for style, not simply for brand name. That means they’ll stock a $20 handbag AND a $2,000. This is rare, as most stores (online and off) tend to specialize in one or the other.

Now, I’m learning that Yoox also sells vintage pieces, like this dark navy wool dress by Moschino Couture, c. 1990.

You can get half off everything, including sale items. The sad fact is that I’ve already totally blown my shopping budget for the month. BUT, with the Dylan long Speedy for half off… I might have finally ended by Hunt for Red Handbag. ChickDowntown.com had tons of great dresses and shoes, but OF COURSE I’m just enamoured with the handbags. Look at the gorgeous Linea Pelle bags. Use code PRIVATE50 at check out.

Sunny Weather’s on the Way… Do you know where you’re sunglasses are?

shopahol — Fri, 20 Feb 2009 19:20:18 +0000

Well I certainly do, but that doesn’t mean that my UV protective wardrobe couldn’t use a bit of updating!

In comes Nicole Miller sunglasses at Hautelook. Some of the styles are a bit overworked, but a few are nice. And at 80% off retail, they are really nice.

Hippies Need Shop Too: Alex and Ani

shopahol — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 22:15:29 +0000

Who says hippies can’t be style mongers?

My beloved Gilt Groupe has Alex and Ani baubles on sale at super slashed prices (more than 50% off retail). The jewelry is eco-friendly, uses hippy-friendly designs and gemstones, and is often sported by celebs, like Jessica Simpson… but don’t hold that against them
