It is kind of surprising to see Blair Waldorf, or rather Leighton Meester in real life, wearing an outfit like this. She wore a puffy dove grey blouse with high-waisted black trousers for an appearance at the Late Night with David Letterman show.

We’ve always seen her look so girly in dresses and frocks so this really is kind of surprising. But what didn’t shock me is that she finished her ensemble with? Louis Vuitton Bags,LV Monogram Vernis, since we know just how she loves designer handbags.

The bag seems to come in exotic or textured leather and in silvery metallic shade. This then complements her modern look and it surely gives a little of designer elegance to her entirety.

We don’t have a clearer view of the clutch, but it is obviously very trendy and it surely adds dazzling effect on her look. Now if there’d be cases where you’re not sure about your getup, finishing it with purse like this Louis Vuitton?Purses should somehow make you confident on your entirety.

lv-monogramouflage-case

The Louis Vuitton bags have become insanely popular and with as popular as the iPhone is, they just had to make a shiny new case for it. Did it have to be camouflage though? LV bags always feature chic pretty monograms, but I think camouflage kind of cancels out the chic factor.

This wasn’t on the iPhone Bingo card, but it should have been. Where there’s an extremely coveted gadget,LV Monogram Jokes, there’ll be an extremely expensive luxury case for it. Louis Vuitton has announced a set of four cases for the iPhone: Monogram Canvas,? Leather one has a belt attachment on it, but all of the cases are pretty inconvenient, because you’ve got to pull the iPhone all the way out to actually use it.

One thing that is going to bother some is this is a sleeve to store your iPhone in. Which means anytime you’d like to use it you’re going to end up having to slip it out.

Being a Louis Vuitton product, I’m afraid this is a bit pricey too, even if it is just two pieces of leather slapped together. It is currently being sold for $280.

Louis Vuitton Handbags I Want A Husband, Not Ten L

Yesterday, book “I Want a husband,Valentino Handbags, Not Ten Louis Vuitton handbags” published by Motie culture was sold hot in book stores in Chongqing. The writer of Yangyang is a fashion reporter in Chongqing, and in that book, she talked about many sadness of the fashion reporters. When she was interviewed by others, she said, “The fashion female reporters in Chongqing are difficult to marry.”

Saving money to buy luxury brands

Working on fashion reporter circle, Yangyang said many people would think the fashion reporter had very high incomes so they could wear luxury brands. But she said the income of the fashion reporter was just several thousands, and the luxury brands that they wore on their bodies were depending on their saving life. A piece of clothes may be one third of their month income.

Female reporters are the middle crackers

Yangyang has a correct theory about the feelings of the fashion reporter, “the luxury brand is necessary goods for the fashion reporters but the feelings for them are a luxury.” She said many people would think the fashion reporters had more chance to connect to the males having powerful economy, but actually the successful case to marry to a rich guy is not easy. Because they worked too long in this circle so they had a higher standard so they became the middle crackers.

Designer outlets offer dolce deals on Gucci, Prad

MONTEFOLLONICO, Italy _ For a woman whose earliest childhood memories include being pushed around in a rented stainless-steel stroller at Cincinnati’s Tri-County Mall every Saturday morning, the choice is easy: Feast on a fabulous seven-course meal at the “ristorante” at this town’s world-class La Chiusa hotel _ or do some serious bargain-hunting at the Prada outlet near Florence?
Get out the charge cards. I’m going shopping.
For the past two years, I’ve made my mall-maven mama proud by opting for the to-die-for buys at the primo Italian outlet stores in Tuscany. A girl has to have priorities, and nothing says “I love me” like a microfiber Prada handbag and Gucci heels that may hurt your feet but are worth the pain at this price _ 40 to 60 percent off retail.
Besides, between stops at the Prada, Gucci, Fendi, Armani, Dolce & Gabbana and Yves Saint Laurent outlets, all strategically placed in small Tuscan towns an easy drive from Florence, you can refuel at the Italian version of a truck stop, the autogrills that combine gas station and restaurant in one easy location along the A1 Autostrade.
For the serious clothes hound, Italy is the promised land, and not just because of its legendary designer houses (Armani, Gucci, Prada), Milan’s trend-setting fashion shows or the upscale boutiques of Rome, Milan and Florence. No, the real deal is the wealth of fashion available at rock-bottom prices at brand-name outlets in Tuscany and elsewhere.
In a few busy days this spring, my traveling companion and I completed our Christmas shopping, scored birthday presents for family and friends, and satisfied our own material needs for about a third of what we would have spent on similar items in the United States. For just under $1,200, I brought home three Gucci bags, two Prada bags, one Fendi bag, a pair of Yves Saint Laurent pants, a cashmere Burberry sweater, four Armani shirts and a few other things without designer labels bought in Florence and Perugia. Italy is now the only place in the world where this vintage clothing junkie actually buys “new.”
The Italians really know how to say it with style.
At Italy’s outlets, you’ll get quality versus quantity. Italian outlet stores cater to those who want to look fabulous in haute couture at bargain-basement prices. You won’t find the usual, tired lot of Nike, Reebok, Gap and accessory shops that dominate outlet malls in the United States, the United Kingdom or much of the rest of northern Europe.
“Italians have tremendous fashion sense and a very good feeling for quality,” says Theodora van Meurs, author of the bargain-hunter’s bible, “Designer Bargains in Italy”
The book not only lists the locations of more than 1,100 stores and their operating hours, but also tells you what to expect once you get there.
“(Italians) also design clothes that one can wear year after year since they are well-made and blend in well,” van Meurs says. “Muted colors for suits in designs that can be worn by normal men and women and made of superior fabrics _ the quality of the fabric is their secret weapon. Their fashion shows are all sparkle with sexy Lolitas in skimpy lace, but their actual production is geared to a comfortable, easy-going life.”
It takes careful planning and patience, however, to score bargains like the ones I got.
According to the Dutch-born van Meurs, great deals can be found at the beginning of the spring and autumn, when manufacturers sell off their showroom collections, but the best prices are at January and July sales.
You also need to choose your destination wisely. Van Meurs says Milan has the best deals, with its famous bargain basements like Salvagente and weekly markets like the one on Saturdays in Viale Papignano. Rome is probably second, but “the things offered there are more flamboyant, not as understated as the Milanese style tends to be,” she says.
The area around Florence is good for all-around shopping, plus it boaststhe gorgeous Tuscan countryside, making it perfect for a vacation that combines shopping with plenty of relaxing, eating and sightseeing.
Also, it helps if you have someone who knows the ropes _ local guides canbe hired, or you can join tours in Florence. I had help from my friend Patty Sutherland, a former Arlington resident who co-owns a cooking school with her husband, Bill, in Montefollonico, and leads shopping tours. Sutherland had information on just about every outlet from the Swiss border to the Amalfi Coast, but more important, she introduced me to van Meurs’ book.
Armed with all these resources and a wallet full of plastic, we hit the A1 early on a Monday morning. And here’s what we found:
PRADA
The first stop was the popular Prada outlet, which is actually called IPellettieri D’Italia. Like most of the other outlets we visited, it’s in a bland-looking industrial park. It’s in a town called Montevarchi, and it’s easy to miss, especially if you’re looking for a “Prada” sign. There is a small sign marked “I Pellettieri,” but the best landmark is a Fina gas station directly across the street from the entrance to this shopper’s paradise.
It’s important to arrive early; tour companies from Florence bus in hundreds of tourists throughout the day. If you don’t, chances are you’ll have to take a number and wait outside in a long line to get in. If the lines are excessively long, employees only allow 10 new customers in at a time.
But at least there’s a nice cafe where you can sit and wait your turn. A flashing sign will tell you when your number is up.
Once you get in, go for it. I’ve seen folks grab up to 10 bags at a time and hang on to them long enough to figure out which two they’ll eventually purchase. You end up stalking the other customers. To make things easier on your limbs, employees will store your wish items at the counter until you’re ready to part with your euros or credit cards. Also, once you make it inside the store, stay inside, because you might not get back in if there are lines outside.
Although the merchandise wasn’t as desirable at Prada this year as it was the previous year, there was a nifty storewide, 20-percent-off sale. That made for some dandy bargains on merchandise that had already been marked down 30 percent. With the two discounts, I got a microfiber purse for about 50 euro (about $51). I also scored a nice woven leather bag for just over $200. The retail price for this bag at the Nieman Marcus in Beverly Hills was $465. Most bags at the outlet were priced between $50 and $1,200.
You could spend hours in Prada. We spent a full day here. Employees replenish the stock about every 30 minutes, and it takes awhile to sift through the new stuff and try on all those shoes, too. Although most of the shoes, in Prada and Miu Miu labels, are from the previous season, who would know? Prices range from $112 to $168.
Other good deals here _ wallets ($74-$150) and sunglasses (around $60). Skip the clothes, however. These duds are overpriced and far too trendy for the average American. And in addition to being five minutes ago, it’s hard to find anything larger than a size 2. My biggest regret? I couldn’t find those sweet and comfy black loafers _ that retail for $300 at Neiman Marcus _ in my size. They were $90 here.
Hours: 9:30 a.m.-7:30 p.m. Monday-Saturday; 10 a.m.-1 p.m. and 2-8 p.m. Sunday. Call first because they sometimes make up their own hours. Also, it’s best to come early in the week. That’s when they put out the good stuff.
GUCCI
Located in Leccio, about 15 minutes from Prada (there are signs) in a strip called The Mall, Gucci was the highlight of this year’s shopping spree. With some items marked down 50 percent, I finally got Mom that black patent-leather Gucci shoulder bag ($150) she never said she always wanted, scored a suede-and-leather number for a friend for the same price and got myself a purple shoulder bag for $110.
My quest to score some of those fab Gucci shoes, however, fell as flat as my feet. Nothing in my size. The classic Gucci loafers, which retail for about $200 in the States, were about $95; pumps ranged from $110 to $180; boots were about $200 to $220. There were also good deals on scarves, belts, wallets and day planners, all in the $50-$150 range.
Unlike Prada, which puts out clothing designs with a 20-minute lifespan, Gucci’s rags were reasonably priced and classic. You could wear some of these things 20 years from now. Men’s suits that normally retail for about $1,200 were $750 and lower. And although better deals on leather pants could be found in Florence, $450 isn’t bad for some lambskin trousers emblazoned with the double G.
Hours: 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday-Saturday; 2-7 p.m. Sunday.
THE MALL
Gucci is the star of this high-couture fashion plaza, but it shouldn’t be your only stop. Among the other stores offering great deals on clothing, shoes and accessories are Yves Saint Laurent, Giorgio Armani, Bottega Veneta and Sergio Rossi.
Frankly, the merchandise at YSL and Armani was slightly superior to that of the other stores. We spent more than an hour in YSL plowing through the half-off items and an additional 90 minutes in Armani sifting through the racks. Best buys at YSL were on women’s suits, tuxedoes and shoes. Best buys at Armani were on men’s shirts. I snagged a linen dress shirt for someone who used to be special for $25.
Hours: 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday-Saturday; 2-7 p.m. Sunday.
FENDI
The Fendi Outlet is just five minutes from The Mall, behind a series of ugly warehouses. Best known for its purses and wallets, Fendi didn’t disappoint when it came to selection and price on these items. Most of its trademark bags with the inverted double F logo were all less than $300. Wallets ranged from $70 to $125. I picked up a nice microfiber shoulder purse for a friend’s mom for $150, but the logo bag I wanted had a creepy plastic covering. It reminded me way too much of being stuck to my grandmother’s plastic-covered sofa on a hot day.
Like Prada, the five-minutes-ago rags here were pricey and not especially attractive. Ditto the shoes. Hours: 9:30 a.m.-6:30 p.m. daily.
DOLCE & GABBANA
You’ll run into this store as you head back toward the A1 from The Mall. Again, there’s no sign. For most folks over 35, D&G is an acquired taste. Although the trendy clothes were more than reasonably priced, they’re only good bargains for someone who likes to take fashion risks and has a flat tummy. D&G cuts for the slim and hipless, so unless you or someone you know fits this description, you might as well cross this one off your list. Plus, even though some items were 40 percent off, everything was in short supply on our visit.
Hours: 9 a.m.-7 p.m. Monday-Saturday; 2-7 p.m. Sunday.
OFF THE PATH
One of the best finds was Liba, a shirt manufacturer in Chiana, about 20 minutes from Montefollonico; Liba makes shirts for Armani and lesser-known designers.
To get in, ring a bell. You’re escorted into a small storeroom that has about four rows of boxed shirts for men. Some will have the Liba tag instead of Armani, but they’re just as good _ especially considering they were all made right there. The Armani shirts range from $20 with slight blemishes (look in the boxes in the back righthand corner) to $42. That’s less than half of what you would pay in the States and about $15 off the Armani outlet prices, too. Liba also makes men’s and women’s shirts for Barney’s New York ($20-$30). Hours vary.
If you head even farther south toward Perugia, you’ll come across some of the most incredible bargains on cashmere in all of Italy. Few of these shops have signs. One, which offered splendid deals on Burberry sweaters, didn’t even have a name (the receipts say UniEuro). It was located in a mothball-scented warehouse next door to the exquisite Lamberto Losani cashmere outlet. The only drawback is that the employees cut the Burberry labels out before you leave the store. Hmmm. Sadly, my dad will never know who made his gray cashmere V-neck sweater or that it only cost $48. No credit cards taken here, and the hours vary.
Just up the street is another cashmere spot called Corso Vannucci. The deals here are not quite as good as they are at the nameless outlet, but you could snag a nice thin cashmere sweater for $20 or an angora one for about $40. Heavier sweaters ranged from $30 to $89. Hours: 9:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m and 2:30-7 p.m. daily.
One thing that I have learned about shopping in Italy is that you shouldn’t allow yourself to be ruled by labels. Bargains in Florence are plentiful _ especially at the outdoor markets at San Lorenzo (adjacent to the Duomo) and at Santa Croce, home to the famous Scuola del Cuoio (The Leather School) and an indoor/outdoor shopping plaza.
Here, even though the euro is not as strong as lire used to be, you’ll find good prices on leather goods _ particularly gloves ($10-$20 at Gloves by Dania in San Lorenzo), duffel bags, purses, wallets, belts, scarves, shoes and the normal tourist fare.
The best part _ or the worst, depending on your perspective _ about shopping in Italy is that it never gets old. It’s a good thing I don’t live on the East Coast, because I’d be bopping across the Atlantic every other weekend in search of designer wares. But since I don’t, I can take pleasure in planning my next trip _ and in smiling wickedly every time I see someone paying retail for a Prada bag at Neiman’s or dropping major coin on an Armani shirt at Barney’s.

Designer bag ladies

WOULD you spend hundreds of pounds on something as basic as a handbag?
More and more women are – and not just those on big salaries.
Designer bags are 1999’s biggest status symbol and girls are blowing more on them than on the rest of their entire outfit. There are even waiting lists of up to six months for the most sought-after styles. But are the bags really worth it or is it just all marketing hype? We spoke to five designer bag ladies to find out . . .
THE MARKET TRADER
FAITH O’NEILL, 30, works in a collector’s record shop in London’s Kensington Market, where she earns around $15,000 a year, and lives in nearby Olympia.
She has one of the most sought-after bags in the world – the Fendi Baguette.
The animal print bag cost $500 last October.
MY BOYFRIEND Frank, who writes books about music memorabilia, took me to Venice for my 30th birthday. The Fendi shop was next to our hotel so I noticed the bag on the first day.
I’d seen a lot of publicity about them in Britain and knew how difficult it was to get hold of one so I was surprised to see the shop had three left.
‘I knew I had to have it and nagged and nagged until, after three days, I got my way and Frank bought it for me. I think he thought I was being a bit spoilt as he’d treated me to the holiday, but he knows that when I’ve got my mind set on something I usually get my way.
‘The shop also had a grey cashmere style with a diamante buckle, but that was being shipped to a fashion editor somewhere so I had only this one and a real mink one (which I wouldn’t have worn) to choose from. I love animal print and I haven’t seen anyone else with this design, so it’s a bit more exclusive.
‘The day I returned from Venice there was a big article in the Evening Standard where even their fashion editor said she couldn’t get her hands on one.
‘Whenever I wear my baguette I hear people talking about it: “Ooh, she’s got a Fendi bag.” My friends love it. I’ve got a $280 Gucci bag and a $220 Prada bag which Frank also bought me under my bed at home, but they’re a bit passe now.
‘My baguette is definitely my favourite bag at the moment – a very pretty bag that makes me feel very grown up when I’m carrying it around.
‘I’d be lying if I said the hype didn’t affect my opinion, but it’s nice and attractive regardless of who it’s made by. Of course, having an exclusive $500 bag is a status symbol, but at the end of the day it’s only a bag.’ M
THE PR EXECUTIVE
AIMEE HARTLEY, an account executive at a PR company, earns about $20,000 a year. 24-year-old’s great passion her black leather Prada bag, which cost $450. She says:
‘I BOUGHT my Prada bag in a moment of madness last year. I had been saving up for a car and had around $600 in the bank.
‘I had just started a new job – it was my first one after university and I was concerned about making a good impression and looking the part as a professional young woman.
‘I asked my friend Charlotte, who works in PR for Chanel, to come shopping for a new working wardrobe and give me some advice because she really knows her stuff.
‘She took me into the Prada store on Sloane Street and we tried a few things on and then I saw this bag. I thought it was glamorous, simple, classy and perfect for both work and socialising. Charlotte said it was perfect label for the PR world, definitely a “must-have”.
WHEN I was handing over the money I felt really good. I thought: “Blow the car, I don’t need it!”
‘I kept it a secret for about month and when I did tell my boyfriend he thought I was a fool for spending so much money. He said we could have gone on holiday for that amount. I still haven’t mentioned it to my Mum – I’m sure she’d think it was a bit excessive.
‘Having a Prada bag is definitely a status symbol – it gives you the feeling that you’re slightly more successful and rich than you are. think the label has cult status because the logo is quite discreet and it’s recognised only by people who know Prada.
When I bought it I wanted everyone to notice it was Prada, but now the novelty has worn off it’s just a special bag.
‘I’m not really a label person and although it is good quality realise I paid a lot for the prestige of having a designer label. However, it’s worth the money and it’ll last longer than a car.
Certainly if someone offered me $450 for my Prada bag, I’d have to keep my bag.’
THE FASHION DESIGNERS
NARGESS GHARANI, 28, lives in Chiswick, West London, and Vanja Strok, 29, lives in Windsor, Berkshire. The former schoolfriends are business partners in a fashion design company called Gharani Strok. They each earn about $10,000 to 15,000 a year. They both have Orla Kiely sheepskin bags, worth $125 (so does Patsy Kensit).
NARGESS says: ‘We both bought our sheepskin handbags last season at London Fashion Week.
Neither of us knew the other had bought it until it was too late.
‘I’d ordered a suitcase from Orla Kiely and when I went to pick it up I saw this sheepskin bag and fell in love with it. I had to have it.
‘There were three or four left and I chose the dark brown with the bright pink stripe on it. Minutes later Vanja came running back to our stand very excited with her new bag, which was identical to mine.
‘We both started laughing and she decided to exchange hers for a different colour scheme so we didn’t have exactly the same one.
‘We socialise together as well as being business partners, so it’s quite funny when we turn up to a party or restaurant wearing exactly the same outfit, shoes and bag.
PEOPLE always comment on the bag, even in Sains-bury’s. I think it’s because it’s so unusual, it stands out. I’ve ordered two summer bags from Orla Kiely so I better let Vanja know before she buys the same one as me again.’ VANJA says: ‘I’d seen the bag in Vogue before I bought it so I knew it was something I liked. As well as Nargess and me, two of our best friends have the same bag, so when we go out it does look a bit cliquey. It’s such a lovely bag it’s like having a furry animal or a cuddly toy. It’s simple but clever, reversible and fits everything in: Filofax, mobile phone, bits and pieces. There’s a lot of sheepskin things about but this one is a little bit different – it’s got character.
‘I think Orla Kiely bags are well-made and stylish. They’re a bit cooler than more obvious designer bags such as Fendi or Chanel and don’t seem quite so indulgent.
They don’t spell money or glamour like a Chanel bag does and the label is very discreet.
It’s also nice to be associated with another young British company.
Her style is very similar to ours, it really fits in with our look – quirky and unique.’
THE ESTATE AGENT
EMMA FREEMAN, 24, lives in Clapham, South London. She makes around $30,000 a year as a letting agent for exclusive properties. Her bamboo-handled Gucci bag cost $380. She says:
‘I WORK for a very exclusive company which deals in luxury apartments so I feel it’s really important to look the part. It just wouldn’t make a good impression if I turned up to meet clients holding a carrier bag so this stylish black Gucci bag, which I bought at the Gucci store on New Bond Street, was perfect.
‘I absolutely love Gucci. I’ve got a gorgeous watch, which is really simple and feminine, and I buy their shoes and other bits and bobs. I’m definitely a “Gucci girl”.
I think their designs are timeless – classic, simple and well-made.
‘I’m a bit of a minimalist: most of my smart clothes are black or white and the bag complements things like my Joseph trouser suit. It’s the perfect size for my job – it holds my Filofax, mobile phone, purse and business cards.
and Orla
‘I’ll admit to being interested in designer labels, mainly because of the quality – I don’t see the point of buying cheaper things that aren’t going to last. Most of my money goes on clothes. I never feel guilty spending so much money on a bag- I use it every day and it’s going to last for years.
‘My Gucci bag is certainly a status symbol: it says “stylish” and “successful”. This is my first Gucci bag but hopefully the first of many.’
