Spectacular Chloe Handbags

Parisian fashion house Chloe has been influencing fashion across the world for over 50 years. The exceptional focus on detail and quality continues to set them apart and these bags can do the same for your Fall wardrobe.



This zip-top bag is finished in an extraordinary bordeaux red and features darkened gold hardware to add richness to any look. The front flap opens to reveal a pocket and the bag also has a long strap for wearing over the shoulder or cross-body.



This is a great classic shape from Chloe. It will easily compliment a variety of looks and the shade of tan makes sure you don't have many color conflicts. I like the tassle too - it is done well and serves to enhance the overall look of the bag.



From the color to the shape to the choice of dual tone handles everything about this handbag stands out to me. A nude finish with darker accents, like the metallic hardware and anthracite colored handles, plays very nicely in the color palette for Fall/Winter 2011.


This is the same bag as the red one above but they decided to go with a higher level of contrast in this version. The rich black leather nicely offsets the gold buckles and rings. It also helps to show-off the great stud detailing across the front of the bag.

With those kinds of options you really can't go wrong but I also have other shapes and styles in from Chloe that you will have to stop by to see.

Black-Grey-Red Fall essentials from Stuart Weitzman

I have such an incredible selection of Stuart Weitzman right now so I am going to take a little time to show off some key items. Stuart always considers fashion and function in his work and this season the elements are in perfect harmony for his Fall 2011 collection.
This little bootie provides full coverage and a sleek look without becoming stayed or plain. The platform is rubber and provides an exceptional level of comfort so if you are looking for a new work or travel bootie this is a great option.



This peep toe cage bootie is great for our climate because you can throw it on today without overheating but as soon as the weather takes a more permanent dip you can pair this with tights. It also plays the role of a chunky sandal at a time of year when most sandals are moving out of season.


This pump takes a staple piece in your wardrobe and gives it a great update. Once you get it on you will see that the modern contours in the toe, platform and heel take this shoe up a notch from any classic pump.
The red is gorgeous and is a must have color for the season. Wear it as a neutral and pair it with greys, blacks and browns. No need to match the color.

Sometimes you just need black.

This grey is also an important color for Fall. Grey is a no brainer for wearing with black but when paired with shades of brown (especially camel) the colors of both really pop.


Another easy bootie option. The heel on this shoe is dramatically higher looking but the platform is deep too so you can have all of the drama without all of the discomfort. The elastic around the opening keeps you securely in place and creates a leg-lengthening "V" shape in the front.


Stuart Weitzman does signature stretch boots every season, this is the new one for this season. Practically everyone with calves of every size, skinny or sporty, gets a good fit in this boot. A good fit is key to a dress boot and this one fits the bill.
I love the dark grey.

again, sometime you just need black.

They call this color Scarlet and that name is perfect. The color definitely makes a statement but in the best possible way. This boot, in Fall's key color, is one of the seasons best options.

Pedro Garcia evening 2011

I just received new evening shoes from Italian shoe designer Pedro Garcia. His evening shoes have the same attention to detail as the rest of his collection so you can count on a shoe that will keep you looking and feeling great all night.


This d'orsay is made in black satin and has a crystal bow ornament. It is a perfect compliment to the feminine layers and lengths you are finding throughout this seasons fashions.



A peep toe Mary-Jane is a great option if you aren't the kind of girl that likes to wear bows. Update your wardrobe with this evening shoe and use it to romance the look of your LBD.
