What recession??? A two thousand + dollar clutch sold out. I know its McQ's last collection, the clutch is RAD and all but seriously that is a lot of bank!

You can read about it - on Net-A-Porter - here - Hey - Ms Net-a-porter! what happened to Fashionair???

Isabel!

If you include her hubby Jerome Dreyfuss and his killer handbags in the mix - is there anything she does not make (directly or indirectly) that I covet???!! And now earrings - ugh LOVE!!!!!

I'm a big fan of Clare Vivier and her collection of bags; handbags, clutches, totes...Yesterday I was invited to a tete a fete in her honor at the new Soho House. It was a lovely time and we even managed to sneak in drinks and dinner on the rooftop patio watching the sun go down over the lights of LA.

At the party, I met Jesse Kamm, forever immortalized by her shift with the big black bow (see pic above). We chatted a bit and Jesse shared some very interesting projects she and her husband have underway.

++ She also mentioned that after a very short hiatus she is back designing and her collection can be found at TenOverSix in their new location on Melrose. Here's a blog post from the TenOverSix shop - click here - which includes photos from Jesse's new collection - ENJOY!!
