Leiber: Luxury Number One!

Leiber has just been named the most prestigious handbag brand in the 2007 Luxury Brand Status Index (LBSI) survey. Hermès and Prada came in second and third places, respectively. The fact that Prada edged out Bottega Veneta and Chanel surprises me a bit, especially considering the fact that it was Bottega Veneta that was named the most prestigious handbag brand in the 2006 Luxury Brand Status Index (LBSI) survey, just last year!

The Color Purple

Am loving Purple and what with my lust for bags, here are two that combine the trends for Fall with the lusciousness of the hue…

Combine Purple with Patent (a Fall trend) to get this gorgeous Lanvin Kansas tote! Another trend, but so tastefully done, guaranteed to update your wardrobe in a bag-pickin’-punch-packin’ second!

Buy Via Barneys

And, the other strong, strong trend, that of Exotics! Combine the exotic Ostrich with luxe Purple and put it in the form of Mulberry Bayswater and know what catapults a great bag into an instant ‘It’ bag!

Buy Via Net-A-Porter

Every once in a while, we obsess. Fashionably, of course. It does stop people in their tracks, we however, think its mildly charming. Charm, like degrees of insanity is subjective, yes, but for now, all arguments come in shades of Purple!

When Dia Does Back-To-Back

Above, you see Dia Mirza at the opening of Coleen’s hair and beauty saloon ‘Snow White’ (why she chose to call it ‘Snow White’ eludes me, worries me even, but we’ll save that for later!), and below, is a picture of Dia at the launch of Hemchandra’s debut album (of Sa Re Ga Ma Challenge 2005 fame).

Such is the burden of ‘celebrity’ when events need to be done back-to-back and time itself becomes hard-pressed. But that is of course no excuse for intentional style hara-kiri!

Why not start with something that can easily transcend from one look to another? Start with a simple black dress for one event and for the next throw on a stole or different accessories or even shoes. If it is trousers and a top, carry a jacket with you and throw it on for the next event. Even change of jewellery, shoes and a bag helps! None of which takes any time by the way, just switch/change/throw on in a matter of minutes (or even on the commute)!

All that is needed however, a bit of fashion foresight!

Ashley’s Sixth Chakra!

We give kudos to Ashley Judd for fighting AIDS in India. But, we do not give kudos to her for putting on this bindi to the premiere of “India’s Hidden Plague” hosted by National Geographic.

It just looks totally “out of place” and now we want it totally “out of sight”!

Ms(Print) Lara!

I am not a big fan of the monogrammed LV. But, I still think people who carry a monogrammed LV should wear an outfit that is more of a solid color. But, when you couple a bag like that with a horsebit print like the dress Lara is wearing..it just gets too busy..It’s almost like a war!(A war between the horsebit print and the monograms and somewhere in between is Lara!)
