CONSTANTLY CONSTANCE

We have just received another Hermes Constance bag in black with gold hardware. The bag has scratches on the leather and the hardware. But as Cameron says; if there are some surface scratches inherent with a bag that is pre-owned, it is hardly a cause for concern. Rather is is a cause for celebration! At a fraction of the cost of a new Constance, this bag is an insider's choice because the next owner of this bag will not look like she just realized that the Constance is hip, but rather has known all along - since 1996 when this leather beauty was born!

STAVROPOULOS and a SUMMER GODDESS

This marks the second window of the summer and both are beyond stunning. The two colorful gowns by Stavropoulos are beautiful in their own right but the Summer Goddess is by Roberto Cavalli and it is the real stunner of the summer. This spectacular dress may be a little bit for the beach but in a pair flip flops you would never look better. Both window's were designed by Jeff Snyder and his talent keeps pushing itself to the next level after every finished window. So please enjoy these beauties for all they are worth.








VOILÀ VERSACE

This Gianni Versace dress is more restrained than what we saw in the ad campaigns of the 80's but it captures the essence of Versace, the royal hues of purple, red and blue, the softness of the silk blend, the dress is a mix of originality with modern flamboyance because Gianni knew that all women have a moment when they desire to look special.
In the words of Oscar Wilde; "Fashion is what one wears oneself. What is unfashionable is what other people wear". If you wear Gianni Versace, trust us you will be the fashionable one everywhere you go!

SHOW IT OFF WITH VERSACE

The fashion world has been really having a Gianni Versace moment recently. Bondage dresses, bold prints and over the top motifs are seen everywhere, from other designers inspired by the glamour of late 80's and 90's to stars like Lady Gaga who has been wearing vintage Versace for 2 months now. And will all the hype of Versace for H&M collection coming out this November, the house will reinterpret all Gianni's greatest hits. But why buy an interpretation when you can have the real thing? Wear this dress with a jacket during the day or for a meeting, and off with the jacket when you are heading for drinks or a fun event.

Black Croc Kelly


Here is a sublime black Porosus Crocodile 32 cm Hermes Kelly with gold hard ware from 1995. We do not have the box, but it has its sleeper bag. And it's crocodile and the best type of croco Hermes uses, too. We have photographed the bag without a flash in somewhat natural light.

THE RED BARON BIRKIN

The Birkins keep coming and we keep posting. This simply gorgeous Rouge Birkin in Garance leather and Palladium hardware is 35cm. It is so brand new and it is blind stamped N square which means it is 2010.

The bag speaks for itself, but I will say this. Unlike the typical trend in Birkins, where larger is better, I feel that this bag is such a chic accessory to carry at night. It is the perfect size not too big and not too small, and allows its wearer to ascend to a higher echelon of elegant dress.
