Kate Spade Post #1
Kate Spade (born Katherine Noel Brosnahan in Kansas City, Missouri; December 24, 1962) is the co-founder and namesake of the designer brand, Kate Spade New York.
In 1986, Spade worked in the accessories department of Mademoiselle in Manhattan, where she was credited in the magazine's masthead as Katy Brosnahan. While at Mademoiselle she met Bradley Carvette who worked in the art department and would become a longtime boyfriend. Together, they were featured in the magazine as part of a photo story on couples and love.
She left Mademoiselle in 1991, with the title of senior fashion editor/head of accessories. While working for Mademoiselle she noticed that the market lacked stylish and sensible handbags, so decided to create her own. With this in mind, Kate browsed local flea markets, began researching different styles, fabrics, production costs, and created a line of handbags with classic shapes, colors, and fabrics.
Spade met her future husband, Andy Spade (brother of actor and comic, David Spade), a native of Scottsdale, Arizona, while at ASU, working side-by-side as salespersons in a men's clothing store, Carter's Men Shop in Phoenix. They were married in 1994. They had a daughter, Frances Beatrix Spade in February, 2005. They launched their New York-based design company "kate spade handbags" in January 1993, selling mainly handbags. Today Kate Spade sells a variety of items including, stationery, personal organizers, address books, shoes, beauty products, perfume, raincoats, pajamas, eyewear, and in 2004, launched "kate spade at home." The home collection includes bedding, bath items, china, various items for the home and wallpaper.

Hermes Post #13
The fast pace at which we lead our lives today offers us no time to ruminate on our actions and their consequences. However by keeping a journal, we are forced to sit down and confront our own actions. In addition, solutions to problems also often become apparent when the problems are in black and white. A journal also encourages you to write about your personal goals and aspirations, and helps to keep you focused.
And that is also the reasons why I got to have a Hermes Ulysses Agenda. I do keep a small account of what is happening in my life.

Hermes Post #12
There is a saying that goes like this "A serious Hermes collector does not merely buy birkins. There are so many delectable items to be had and treasured."
Being a Birkin collector myself, I do also indulge myself in other items from Hermes. I have such weak resistance towards all the orange boxes, their ribbons and acid-free paper in those boxes. Hermes-lovers, you would agree with me don't you?
Similar to the Kelly and Birkin, a new wallet design was borned. Putting the wallet alongside with the Kellys and Birkins, one can see that the distinctive features of the wallet would be its clasp lock.

Hermes belt is indeed the epitome of all leather belts. I personally owned 3 of them amidst all the other label belts.
The interesting thing about this belt is that some of the belt strap can be reversible. It comes with 2 different colours, and you could match those with the same-day outfit that you are wearing, ain't that clever?

Dear readers, Hermes is announcing its sale for items like RTW, shoes, hats and gloves. For those big-time Hermes fans out there, go grab that favourite item of yours at a less astronomical price. Saves you from dishing out on the original price tag (gawks) and help our ailing economy as well!
Greatly recommended are their shoes and gloves. I know, because I bought them!
Sales announcement from the classy Hermes. Let's hit the stores and do some serious damage to our credit cards and wallet.

Prada Post #7
The Prada epicentre - this first in Manhattan - subvert the familiar idea of a flagship as a grandiose headquarters building. Here a new customer experience comes into its own, with the integration of retail and performance space.
The result is an enhanced shopping event and better customer service, going beyond the commercial and becoming a visual and sensory encounter. These innovative and progressive ideas have been realised through a fusion of opposites... The building which houses the epicentre is a 19th century, cast-iron façade landmark, while the interior is very much designed for 21st Century shopping.
Located in the heart of New York City’s trendy yet historic Soho district, Prada’s actual retail space occupies approximately 24,000ft², using both street and cellar levels. Courtesy of arup.com
