Save, Spend, Splurge: Unapologetically Spring
By Amanda Mull on Apr 09, 2012 08:00 am 
Even though spring’s technical start is in late March, old-fashioned sartorial rules often dictate that no one should wear truly spring-like things until after Easter. White, raffia, pale flowers – all verboten until after some arbitrary holiday. The PurseBlog team does not advocate listening to those kinds of silly rules, of course, but if you’ve grown up with them, the … Read the rest

By Vlad Dusil on Apr 06, 2012 06:36 pm 
Yesterday I had the pleasure to tour the newly renovated Salvatore Ferragamo flagship store on Fifth Avenue prior to its official unveiling earlier today. Crafty workers were still busy putting finishing touches on the new decor to have it perfectly presentable for the next morning, but all chaotic last minute touches aside, it was easy to see that the redesign … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Apr 06, 2012 02:00 pm 
I’ve talked in the past about some of the things I dislike (and some of the unfortunate patterns I’ve noticed) when shopping in high-end department stores and boutiques, and whenever I share one of those stories, you guys respond in kind – it seems as though we’ve all experienced genuinely rude (and sometimes downright demeaning) treatment while trying to do … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Apr 06, 2012 11:00 am 
I have a serious jewelry problem. All of my favorite stuff is either vintage or costume, so it’s not a spending problem so much as it’s an amount problem. The stuff I wear regularly currently resides in small Ziplock bags inside a white Balenciaga box (which used to contain my iPad case), which sits on top of my dresser. I’ve … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Apr 06, 2012 08:00 am 
To me, how a piece of clothing or an accessory looks is secondary to how you feel when you wear or carry it. Fashion is fickle and everyone’s a critic, but when a dress or a bag or a pair of shoes makes you feel like your best self, it’s worth whatever it might cost. Style is instinctual far more … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Apr 05, 2012 04:00 pm 
While I was reading about the gorgeous new Bottega Veneta Suite at the Park Hyatt Chicago (above) yesterday, I got to dreaming about what it would be like to stay in a room like that. Anyone who’s ever picked up one of the Italian brand’s luxurious handbags knows exactly how luscious and soft the leather is, and rolling around on … Read the rest

By Megs Mahoney Dusil on Apr 05, 2012 02:00 pm 
It has been a little while since we covered Lockheart on PurseBlog. I almost forgot about them, almost. But almost doesn’t count and when I peeked at the brand’s website this week, I found many bags that brought me right back in. One of my favorite bags I have ever used and reused day after day, week after week, is … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Apr 05, 2012 12:00 pm 
Winter seems to be playing hide-and-go-seek with those of us in New York; it was a balmy 67 degrees yesterday afternoon while today is back in the 50s, as if Mother Nature is actually toying with us. Once the calendar turns to April, though, my glee for spring can hardly be contained. If I will myself to believe it’s warm … Read the rest
