Will You Embrace Black Lace?

August 15th, 2008 | 6 Comments | Posted in Trends


One of the big trends we’ll be seeing this fall is black lace. You’ll have to thank, or blame, Miuccia Prada and a handful of designers who made use of the heavy black lace (called guipure lace) seen on the runway last February for this.

Fall 2008 Prada Bags on Hautelook.com

July 26th, 2008 | 2 Comments | Posted in Handbags, Online Sales


What’s going on here? Prada’s Fall 2008 runway handbags are available on Hautelook.com for up to 28% off retail. These bags have just hit stores like Neiman Marcus for the fall season. They’re not even past season or current season. They’re upcoming season and they’re already on sale. It must be the sign of the times when thousand dollar luxury designer handbags are on sale even before the season has started. Will this mean steeper discounts by the end of the season? According to L.A. Times, “it’s cool to be cheap, even among the wealthy.” The only bag that isn’t discounted is the black lace bowler bag that I love, love, love. But wait, is it really $3500? Or, as Fabsugar reported yesterday, $1995? Go check it out. Sale ends July 27 at 11:59PM PST.
