Lose Weight – Every handbag deserves a weight loss plan. Ladies, you need to give your bags a break! Ease up this year on the junk in the trunk.
Look Fashionable – Stick to a handbag that is year-round (something preferably in brown or black). A year-round handbag is great because you will always look fashionable no matter what season it is. Save yourself a ticket from the fashion police and purchase a classic year-round handbag.
Keep Organized – Don’t just throw everything into your handbag; instead, organize! A helpful tip is to purchase accessories that fit into your purse such as: wallets, coin purses, cosmetic pouches, cell phone holders, business card holders, key holders, etc. These little gadgets will help keep your purse neat and organized!
Shop Smart – Don’t throw thousands of dollars on a handbag that you don’t expect to use. Try investing in a handbag that is durable, well-made, and affordable. Shopping smart in this economical crisis is an ideal New Year’s resolution.
I must disagree, strenuously and vociferously, with the reintroduction of the wood-bottom clog to the high fashion lexicon. Even when these particular wood-bottom clogs are from Chanel Spring 2010. I will not stand for it.
What I do like, however, is smiling. Models smiling. When was the last time that you saw model after model, looking reasonably happy and human, in a major fashion show. In the fashion show of Paris Fashion Week? And do my eyes deceive me, or was supermodel Sasha Pivovarova talking on a cell phone on the runway?
And is that hay? Did Karl Lagerfeld turn the Grand Palais into a barn?
Yes and yes.
Quite honestly, regardless of the clothes (which were reasonably fabulous, but not the best of the week. Like I said in a previous post, Alexander McQueen already won), Chanel’s show appeared to be the most joyful. At my college, we had a saying: our team may occasionally lose a football game, but we’ve never lost a party. And that’s exactly what Chanel did this week: they won the party. I mean, they even had a live band! With Lily Allen! Was there a keg? If there was a keg, I bet it was really nice beer.
