Amanda Mull — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 15:04:31 +0000

Finally. Someone at Gucci has thrown out a life preserver to save their Resort 2008 collection from complete irrelevancy, and that life preserver is the Sukey Large Python Tote. We’ve spoken previously about the fake-tattoo-covered shortcomings of the 2008 group of bags, and they aren’t pretty. The Python Sukey, however, is [...]

Donna Karan Modern Pisces Soft Tote

Megs — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 15:43:13 +0000

Donna Karan Modern Pisces Soft Tote I was rather nice to the Donna Karan Modern Aries Bag a while back and most of you that commented thought it was nice. I happen to still like that bag.

Amanda Mull — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 14:24:32 +0000
