      <title><![CDATA[The Worlds Oldest Basketball Shoes!]]></title>
      <link>http://shoeblogs.com/2009/07/03/the-worlds-oldest-basketball-shoes/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[
Manolo says, from the Manolo&#8217;s friends at Boing Boing come news of the discovery of the world&#8217;s oldest kicks!

Gary Pifer a vintage clothing dealer found the 116 year old sneakers while combing through picked over items, that were contained within a victorian era trunk. &#8220;As I arrived late, I was told that all the good stuff was gone&#8221;, said Mr. Pifer.
He paid 50 cents for the brown high top canvas sneakers made by the Colchester Rubber Company. Later that night, Mr. Pifer was shocked to discover, during an internet search, that the brand went out of business in 1893.
&#8220;In a instant, I knew this discovery would be re-writing basketball and sneaker history, as these sneakers are 25 years older than the 1917 Converse All-Stars&#8221;, added Pifer. The Colchester Rubber Co. was located in Colchester, Connecticut and was in business from 1888 to 1893.

Naturally, this being the Age of Commerce, Mr. Pifer, who discovered the shoes in 2004, has already set up the company to market reproductions of these marvelous shoes. 
And, the Manolo has to say, he would happily wear these shoes.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[
Mmmmmmmm, something tells me this photo was a wee bit staged. But that&#8217;s cool - Khloe Kardashian looks killer in her Audrey-gone-sexy trench, wide-brimmed hat, and Louis Vuitton/Stephen Sprouse pink graffiti handbag. I love the modern twist against her classic outfit&#8230;a little bit of &#8217;80s pop mixed with &#8217;50s starlet. Nicely done.

      <description><![CDATA[
Oh how we heart a good designer handbag sale. Par example: Mulberry&#8217;s current clearance of big-name purses, including the Bayswater, Somerset, Mabel, East West Maggie, and more. We spied a lipstick-red Mitzy Hobo for $549 (originally $825), a purple Roxanne tote for $369 (originally $750), and other steep discounts that are too good to pass up. Go here to shop the sale now.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[
We know he&#8217;s got his own William Rast line, but it took this photo of Justin Timberlake pulling his Louis Vuitton luggage (love the gray) to tell us that, yep, JT is a fashionisto. Louis Vuitton seems to be the gateway drug for male celebs and their designer man bags - Kanye West has gotten down with the camo, Usher&#8217;s been out with the traditional monogram. Just goes to show that love for Louis knows no gender!

      <title><![CDATA[The "Tina" Clutch by Adriana Castro]]></title>
      <link>http://www.bagsnob.com/2009/07/the_tina_clutch_by_adriana_cas.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[
The lovely Adriana Castro bestowed an incredible honor on me-- she named the hottest bag from her Spring 2010 line after me!&nbsp;  That has got to be the highest honor for a bag snob!&nbsp; Anyone who has met or shopped with me knows my tendency to shout "that is so 'Tina', I must have it!".  Apparently Adriana took note the last time I visited her showroom in NYC because she designed a clutch that is not only totally 'Tina', it's named the "Tina" Clutch!&nbsp; I love the pleated and full shape, it holds everything yet is easy to clutch due to the flat clasp. (Jump to see interior).&nbsp;  The best part is you can custom the "Tina" (yes, I am going to use the name over and over, I am that vain!) clutch depending on your taste.  You can choose any skin (crocodile, lizard, python, ostrich leg) with any trim and in any color!&nbsp;   The "Tina" clutch is currently by special order only (Adriana tells me the boutiques have loved them!). To place an order,  e-mail sales@adrianacastroonline.com or order by phone 1.866.460.4484.&nbsp;

The dimensions: 9.5"W x 5.5"H x 2"D  (you can customize the size, too!  make it larger or smaller, depending on your needs-- prices will adjust for size accordingly).&nbsp; Crocodile: $1,1150 -- You will be hard pressed find another crocodile clutch for this price and quality!
Lizard: $1,015 -- I love the ring lizard but think I will go for a crocodile version.&nbsp; Heck, it's named after me, shouldn't I get ALL colors!?!?&nbsp; Python: $895 -- Adriana uses high quality python skin that is supple and lush.&nbsp; Ostrich Leg: $700 -- Hello!  This is a no brainer, ostrich leg is as sturdy as they come and the price is crazy!!!

      <title><![CDATA[Scratch & Sniff...]]></title>
      <link>http://www.sheerluxe.com/newsletter/scratch-sniff.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Were suckers for the right packaging  we see it and we want it, whether its the cool branding of a an Innocent Smoothie, the cheeky retro boxes of our favourite Benefit buys, a Le Labo fragrance, or a Diptique candle. And let's face it, UK high streets just wouldn't be the same without a Starbucks logo (or three).



Weve got a new brand crush in the form of Green &amp; Spring, a lust worthy new skincare range created by the couple behind super-luxe Cowley Manor and its award winning Spa in the Cotswolds. 



The packaging is as cool and clean as Cowley and the lotions and potions inside - made from herbs, flowers and plants native to the British isles - smell like HEAVEN.

Think expensive spas, ultra chic hotel rooms, and luscious herb gardens in summer... Trust us when we say these fragrances are to die for  if only you could scratch and sniff your computer screen...

Our bathroom staples? Their Relaxing Hand Cream  the perfect concoction of marshmallow, comfrey, lavender and camomile.

And for softer than soft post-sun skin, try the incredibly rich Indulging Body Cream (a serious treat for you or a deserving friend).

      <title><![CDATA[Marni Wave Bag]]></title>
      <link>http://www.senoracartera.com/2009/07/marni-wave-bag.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Feast your eyes on the fall "must-have" bag. When I first spotted this stunning creation back a couple of months ago, it was plain to see it would be an instant hit. Even before its official release, celebrities like Julia Roberts have already made the Marni Wave Bag their "go-to" bag. The Wave Bag's subtle elegance is contrasted with a mod vibe and luxe accents that only Marni can deliver. There's no question Marni has this niche of the handbag market cornered.As I mentioned before, the Wave Bag will be released in several shapes, sizes and colors with plenty of options to satisfy the most discerning handbag collector. Even if you've never been a Marni handbag fan, this design is classic enough to appeal to you. Just look at the gathered pleating and contrast piping detail on these bags - simply divine. The Marni Wave Bag will be arriving on-line and in stores sometime in July. I'll keep you updated on its official release, but you can browse and shop Marni accessories via Marni's virtual store. Wave Tote - $1800 USDWave Tobo - $1800 USD; Wave Satchel - $1725 USDPhotos courtesy of Marni

      <link>http://www.bagsnob.com/2009/07/kate_loves_her_elsa_clutch_fro.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[My favorite clutch of the moment is Derek Lam's Elsa in gray python, apparently it is Kate's as well.  She has been seen clutching it on many occasions (yesterday at a London club opening) and if you owned this clutch you'd understand why.&nbsp;  It just has that je ne sais quoi-ness to it-- you know what I mean, it's cool without trying, just like Kate.I use it several times a week myself, it is ultra functional and edgy chic to boot.&nbsp; It instantly hips up any outfit I have on, even if it's a boring shift dress. I was told the Elsa in gray python sold out mere days after it was posted here two months ago.&nbsp; If you missed out, try calling Wayne and see if he can find one from somewhere for you.&nbsp; If not, you can order it in bubblegum for resort 2010!Call Wayne at 212-966-1616 or email him here.]]></description>

      <link>http://www.bagsnob.com/2009/07/guccis_new_groove.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[
Could this be!?!?  The Snobs post two glowing reviews of Gucci bags in one week!?!?  Gucci has been catching our eye lately in a good way (and not the omg I'm ashamed I ever carried/wore anything with GG on it way).&nbsp; First the large Lucy clutch and now the Iconic bag with horsebit hardware.&nbsp; Very impressed with the use of the brand's iconic horsebit as the zipper pull, it makes a strong "I am Gucci" statement without compromising on design or resorting to the overkill of logos.&nbsp; The pleated detail softens the hobo and lends a fresh young vibe to the aging brand.&nbsp; I am all about the RTW this season from Gucci, too.&nbsp; Frida Giannini's latest efforts will soon have people saying, Tom who? &nbsp; Gucci Iconic Bag (15.7"w) at Saks for $1,950 (if they can drop the prices a wee bit they'd have a major hit here!)

      <description><![CDATA[ Coco Chanel viewed Venice as a city of great intrigue - simultaneously dramatic and fragile...much like herself. The Chanel Makeup Studio used their imagination to bring this water-themed city to life for Fall 2009 in a palette reflective of its shimmery facades, mosaics, and sparkly aquatic lagoons. Chanel's Global Creative Director, Peter Philips, recently created Venetian-inspired runway looks for the 2009/10 Cruise show - held on the beaches of Venice - with tones of rich sienna, deep rose, mysterious greys, and dusky greens that can be softened for day or emboldened come evening.

      <title><![CDATA[How to Wear Bright Denim Jeans]]></title>
      <link>http://fashiontribes.typepad.com/fashion/2009/07/how-to-wear-bright-denim-jeans.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[ A fun sartorial antidote to the glum economic news is bright denim: jeans in bold hues like lemon yellow, vibrant aqua, cool coral, emerald green, cotton candy pink, royal purple, and luscious tangerine. To rock the look like a pro, the style experts at Cotton Incorporated recommend keeping the rest of your ensemble toned-down. "When wearing bright denim, your jeans are the focal point. Pair it with tops, cardigans, and tees in neutral colors." Also, to balance the brightness of the color, keep the cut body-conscious, skinny, and ankle length. "Baggier cuts in bright and bold colors can be overwhelming, causing you to look larger than your actual size." If you're feeling more daring, add a burst of color with a cotton scarf, a cotton tunic in a contrasting color, or even a shade of nail polish from OPI's BrightPair collection (designed in conjunction with coordinating Paige Premium Denim crops and shorts); alternatively, a graphic black-and-white zebra print looks fab paired with a bright. And don't forget to care for your investment: before laundering turn your jeans inside-out, wash only in cold water with a color-safe detergent, and NEVER use bleach.
