As you can see, the Prada Saffiano Fori Shoulder Bag ($1295) and the Saffiano Fori Boston Bag (pre-order, $1650) are bright. Neon bright, even. I do respect the design aspect of these bags. It has a South Beach, Miami feel to it …read more

Prada has produced two unique must-have sunglasses designs this summer:  the  Prada Butterfly Sunglasses and the Wavy Temple Sunglasses.  Both of these designs take the vintage oversized Jackie-O inspired acetate frame and infuse it with a creative little twist to create a stunning and recognizable shape that is sure to become iconic.  I absolutely love both of these styles and applaud the creativity to create a sunglasses design that is so classic, yet subtely unique.

It wouldn’t be safe for the children.
Wedges, of course, come in at all different price points. However, if you’re looking for that luxury piece of cork wedge heaven, may …read more
