Victoria Beckham, Marc Jacobs and a Frog




Not something I would buy, but it's still interesting to look at. 


eLuxury, $795

Posh would get away with holding the Evening Rana Pouch, though. Then again everything looks better in hot pink. Be sure to check out her ad campaign for Marc Jacobs. They're definitely something to see!

Balenciaga Online in the US


When my Balenciaga crazed friend J, told me that Balenciaga was now available online in the US, I had different emotions surging through me. First, of course was total full blown excitement--the whole collection is now available to purchase online! No waiting lists, no visiting boutiques which only stock two colors: it was all there and yours at a click. True, it's not available in the Asia-Pacific yet but there was always the possibility to send it to a friend in the US and tell that friend to send it to us.

My second emotion however was confusion. I wasn't sure how to really feel about it being available at the click of a button. Does that make wear down the exclusivity and luxe appeal of the brand? Nevertheless, being a bagwhore, it doesn't make me love Balenciaga any less. 


There has been mixed reviews over the giant hardware, but personally, it's one of my favorite styles, and I have my eye on the classic black with silver hardware. Then there is of course the classic styles in gorgeous colors. I do hope that if all goes well, they'll expand to deliver to the rest of the world. Cross fingers!
