Brand New.


What is it about the changing of the seasons that makes you want to go shopping again?  In Southern California it seems that we’ve nearly skipped Spring and headed straight into Summer, but I’m not complaining.  Instead I’m planning on embracing it – and if I only get to splurge on one brand new item, I’m going to make it count…


In case you haven’t heard – Kate Spade is about to go from wildly popular to total retail domination.  The brand is set to launch their diffusion line ‘Saturday’ which will run at a lower price point and target a slightly younger demographic.  As a designer I pretty much appreciate every thing these people do and I have a strong inkling that Saturday will have their same signature wit and flawless follow through.  Until the official debut – their spot on website will have to tide me over.  And if you’re looking for something smaller, but with equal impact, Bauble Bar’s current selection of statement necklaces are just the thing. (I’ve had my eye on this one to pair with a new black peplum top).  While we’re on the topic of statements, I’m going to need you to just trust me on this one.  There is nothing prettier this season than a shiny new pair of white pumps.  From their substantial heel to snakeskin texture these are the kind of heels that make an outfit.  And I know what you’re thinking, they’ll get dirty.  So let’s not run through the mud in them, shall we?  Wear them like one of Don Draper’s girls would, with a crisp dress and a purposeful stride.
