I can’t remember which blog originally tipped me off to the Prada Fairy Bag controversy, but thanks! The ink on the bags can bleed if it gets wet. Prada apparently didn’t know that when they started selling the bags. Now they know, thanks to customer complaints, and hopefully salespeople are warning new customers. There is…

Out to Dinner Outfit
I’ve been trying to break my jeans-and-t-shirt-and-lots-of-jewelry habit, so this is what I wore to dinner at Landmarc restaurant last night. That’s my Alexander McQueen sweater and skirt from 2004 with Henry’s new Prada bag. I can’t seem to get the hang of Photoshop (the shame!) so I couldn’t fit in the shoes — the…
I Always Thought She Had Good Taste!
As if we didn’t already know that Oscar-winning Tilda Swinton was cool … she’s got Henry’s bag to prove it! Click to see on Dlisted!
Post #400: A New Handbag Has Arrived
I wouldn’t let Henry get close to this new Prada bag because I am dithering about whether to keep it. What to do …. what to do …. “Why do I have to pose with handbags anyway?” Previously, he was allowed to hang out with a Vuitton. “Stephen Sprouse was so genius.” And he got…
Dirt-Cheap Prada
This stunning pink crocodile Prada bag is on sale for $6,742, down from $8,990. Maybe some of you want to chip in and get it for me for Valentine’s! Anyone? Anyone? Fine! Be that way. Speaking of sales, do you want to show-cha your chocha just like WendyB in her sequined gold Antik Batik dress?…

Delicious
This Miu Miu shoe is delicious… …and it reminds me of this Bottega Veneta bag, which is also delicious. Pink and red make me think of something else that’s delicious. Excuse me while I go get a snack! While I’m eating, you can read this. Also, here’s a guy who has a sensible response to…
Great Minds Think Alike … About Foldover Bags
Bag from Posh Vintage This ’60s foldover clutch from Posh Vintage (above) reminded me of Poppie Couture’s foldovers. The vintage bag is less expensive but the Poppie bags are certainly beautiful. I love the deep red color. Bag from Poppie Couture I feel that I’ve also seen foldover bags with a big ring handle like…
Ahead of My Time, Once Again
Ben Widdicombe of the New York Daily News has chimed in on Hogan’s misguided Chrissie Hynde tribute FOUR DAYS after I wrote about it! Better late than never, I guess! Just to refresh your memory, Hogan named a ponyskin bag after Hynde, who is an ardent PETA activist. By the way, I emailed Hogan on…
Chanel Bag
If someone were to insist on buying me a luxurious bag right this second, I think I would choose this vintage Chanel: Chanel bag from Vintage Couture I like the boxy shape and the fringe, which reminds me of a cute little beard. Like the beard on a schnauzer, and I mean that in a…
