Ashley Olsen Gets in the Fendi Spirit
Man, does Ashley Olsen look like a bad-A or what? The Maverick shades, the black blazer, the utterly divine crocodile Fendi handbag? I’m scared…and jealous. Not bad for a gal who used to be known for a Pebbles ponytail and movies like “It Takes Two.” Of course, looking cool is pretty much a slam-dunk when […]

Earlier this month my colleague Deirdre Woollard reported that Louis Vuitton had cut its prices in Japan by 7 percent in an effort to boost flagging sales.

Fendi Ombre Logo Basket Tote
Is it just me, or does this Fendi Ombre Logo Basket Tote have “Samantha Jones” written all over it? (No wait- it’s got “Fendi” written all over it.) While I could definitely see our lusty logo-loving New Yorker falling for this flashy Fendi, I’m not sure I can. Available in blue or red, the coated […]
Nicole Richie continues to get mileage out of her Balenciaga City
For me, Nicole Richie has sort of fallen off the map. I used to be semi-obsessed with her style, tracking down Jil Stuart shorts and Curve camisoles like it was my job. Then she grew up, had a baby and disappeared. Nicole is still out and about every once in awhile, but I guess the […]
Fendi Doctor B Buckle Tote
