Even Elizabethan Collars aren't Out

According to the July issue of Harper's Bazaar, Elizabethan collars are so over.


Really? I think Karl Lagerfeld would beg to differ, well maybe he wouldn't beg.

Today and Tomorrow

This Sale is definitely NOT SuperFab; I would even go so far as to say it basically sucks! I think the prices are pretty close to retail. Maybe the organizers of this sale skipped out of Math class a few times too many or maybe they were confused about the original retail prices of the items they are trying to sell. Anyway, don't waste your time here.

WHAT
Sample Sale of Christian Lacroix, Chanel, Roberto Cavalli, and Dolce & Gabbana

WHERE
Shoreham Hotel, 33 West 55th Street, Ground Floor

WHEN
November 19th and 20th, 10am until 7pm

PHONE
(212) 247-2229

Been there! Don't go!

Central Park Finally Got a Chanel 2.55 Handbag

Enter Central Park at Fifth Avenue and 72nd Street; keep walking westward, along the street. Follow the chic Chanel signs; you have arrived.

These are the rules for getting tickets since all the timed tickets available through the Chanel Mobile Art website are sold out.

There are many rules here, but they are worth following.
Go up the stairs. All the people who will assist you henceforth are modeliscious and impeccably dressed in Chanel ensembles.

Notice this beautiful building on the way to the pod made out of mirrorized glass. This is where the cocktail parties were/are held to celebrate the pod, the art within, and Chanel. I've been in twice and the atmosphere is cozy with couches and fine beverages and hors d'oeuvres (too dimly lit for photos with my camera, so sorry).

Keep going.

If it's raining as it was the second time I visited, at least there are glamorous umbrellas!

At last, the ultimate 2.55 handbag awaits your arrival, and all you can think is this would make an awesome clubhouse for meeting the girls to discuss important style matters and then having the most sophisticated slumber party ever!

Note: This is not all the art in the pod. There is more!

Next, it's time to get some souvenirs from your travels; three postcards are at the ready, expecting your arrival. What does emptying your bag mean? You will find out. Have a wish? Make it.

You MUST see it for yourself!

Meanwhile at the New York Chanel boutiques...



along with Limited Edition Handbags, there is art by a different artist at each boutique. At 15 East 57th Street is photography by Pierre et Gilles, and at 139 Spring Street, there is an installation by Soju Tao.
