Many still believe in the power of Burberry when it comes to manufacturing trench coats. And hence, here we present the Burberry 2010 Trench Coat.

Who would say kids doesn’t know anything about fashion yet? I have a 6 year niece and she is crazy about her new toy. Much like choosing clothes and dressing up a doll anyway you want. So I bet most kids will also like this Barbie by Christian Louboutin. The brand Christian Louboutin collaborated with Barbie to make a limited edition of Dolly Forever doll. And it is so gorgeous. The outfit is something a real person could actually wear. The doll wears a khaki mini dress, sunglasses, gold extras and Forever Tina fringed boots.

Hermès Leather Garden Party Bag
January 25th, 2010 by daphne reyes
Garden Party Bag, Hermès red negonda leather with chevron canvas lining, silver and palladium Clou de Selle snap closure, 14″x 10.25″ x 6.5″ $2,625.00
Infomation above is noted as per their website as of today, January 25, 2010.
Every woman loves bags. It’s a given. And if you’re a woman, you know what Hermès is. Well, maybe not all knows why the price is such for such a simple bag but just so you know, Hermès does not use assembly lines; only one craftsman may work on one handbag at a time, hand-stitching each individual piece. Due to the labour-intensive nature of Hermès production methods and the use of rare materials (sometimes including exotic skins as well as precious metals), one bag can take 18 to 24 hours to create. When Hermès leather goods require repair, owners are encouraged to bring the item back to any Hermès store where it can be shipped to the factory in Paris for repair or reconditioning. If that’s not enough explanation to you as for the cost; Those outfitted by the company to some extent include: the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, John F. Kennedy, Jackie Kennedy, Sammy Davis, Ingrid Bergman, Lauren Bacall, Humphrey Bogart, Romy Schneider, Catherine Deneuve, and Grace Kelly. Hermès became more popular thru the “Kelly Bag” which was named after Grace Kelly as she was seen a lot carrying it.
Question is, how much would you spend on a bag?
