December 14th, 2011LV Suhali Bag…As Seen On
October 20th, 2011I couldn’t believe when the Suhali bag landed in front of me! Now why would anyone give that up?! I don’t ask my clients questions like that, I just accept it graciously with a smile! The Suhali Le Fabuleux Bag is made from luxurious Suhali leather and complimented with metal studs and hardware, this bag is just A-mazing.
Louis Vuitton Suhali Le Fabuleux Bag
My favorite celebs love this bag as much as I do! It takes a departure from the beloved Monogram Canvas but remains classic and functional. The Suhali Le Fabuleux is not one that will easily be thrown in the back of a closet after one season of wear, it’s simple enough but perfectly adorned that you will choose this bag over and over again, day or night!

VMA Best Dressed!
August 29th, 2011Not only did Beyoncé announce her pregnancy last night at the VMA’s but she also looked stunning in a Lanvin sheath dress. Personally I think she deserves the best dressed award for the VMA red carpet.

I love the way this dress drapes and covers her baby bump so elegantly. Most of all, the color is what really strikes me!
For $3k, you can look almost like Beyoncé, in a shorter version.

Who do you think was the best dressed last night?

Ashley Olsen Slips on Chanel Slides
August 17th, 2011Known for her laid back, boho style, Ashley Olsen was seen leaving her NYC apartment on August 11th in this casual yet chic outfit. Immediately, her fire engine, red Chanel slides caught my eye! She’s usually seen donning an oversized, grungy look during the day but the fashion mogul never ceases to WOW on the red carpet with her impeccable and fearless style. The difference in her daytime and nighttime style is like, well….day and night!

This daytime ensemble remains true to her style. I love the way she paired the pop of red with mustard pants by Elizabeth & James. In case you’re wondering, the top, bag and sunglasses are all from The Row.
If you find style inspiration in Ashley and her ensemble, like we do, you might want to pick up these similar Chanel slides…

Fall 2011 Fur Frenzy
August 9th, 2011Without a doubt fur is a dominating presence on the Fall 2011 runway! Many of my favorite designers incorporated furry pieces into their collection. From jackets to stoles to headpieces and even shoes! Fur is everywhere!
Some of our favorite fur pieces from this Falls' runways!
However, as an animal lover and fashionista, is it wrong to love these unbelievably gorgeous pieces? If one of Gucci’s amazing, vibrant fur jackets fell into my possession, will I be able to actually wear it? Or will guilt take over?
What do you think? Would you rock the fur or would you protest someone who did?
Check out some of Covet Shop’s fur offerings for your personal fall collection. You can accessorize any wool coat with this fox collar to keep you nice and toasty!

Or throw this fur shrug over a beautiful cocktail dress for a night out!

Lastly, this rabbit fur Chanel bag has me gasping for air!

Celebrity Fashion Lines: Who made it, Who didn’t!
August 4th, 2011We all know that celebrities don’t make all their millions from their primal talents. They use their fame to diversify their revenue stream by building a brand. From appearances and endorsements to fragrances and even their own clothing lines. Now, what does a celebrity who sings or acts know about designing and constructing a garment? They don’t and who cares, we buy it for the name anyways.
Jessica Simpson has one of the most successful fashion empires, expected to earn $1 billion this year! That’s what I call maximizing your brand potential!!
Jessica Simpson Collection
The Olsen Twins have Elizabeth & James and The Row, which recently launched a handbag collection.
Mary Kate & Ashley's Elizabeth & James and The Row (Fall 2011)
There is also L.A.M.B by Gwen Stefani, Nicole Richie’s Winter Kate and House of Harlow and let’s not forget the very successful Sean John by Sean “Diddy” Combs, who even won a CFDA award in 2004.
There are the few celebrity lines that succeed but most often they fail. Let’s face it, we can’t all be good at everything we do. The ones that have bombed miserably include Mandy Moore’s Mblem, Jennifer Lopez’s Sweetface and Jovovich Hawk by Milla Jovovich. I actually really liked Jovovich Hawk and I think they had a pretty good run until 2008.
JLO Sweetface
In honor of this blog post, I give you this piece from The Row now available at covetshop.com.

This classic dress can do wonders for your accessories. So get creative and start experimenting. Feel free to reach out if you need some inspiration!

Asian-American Fashion Designers
July 26th, 2011In recent years, we have seen a rise in Asian American Fashion Designers such as Phillip Lim, Alexander Wang (one of my favs), Jason Wu, Doo Ri Chung, Derek Lam, Peter Som, Thakoon and Richard Chai. This brings music to my ears as I love to see the success of my own kind (being Chinese-American myself). As quoted in a WSJ article, A Design Generation Rising, “To explain the sharp increase in their numbers, many young Asian-American designers point to a cultural shift within their communities that has liberated them from traditional career expectations.”
Philip Lim, Alexander Wang, Doo Ri Chung and Derek Lam
We love to support each and every one of them. So needless to say, when we come across pieces from our fellow Asian kind, it’s hard to contain our excitement! Take a look at some of them that are available at covetshop.com now!

Alexander Wang Cutout Faille Dress

Since we are on the topic of Asian designers, I just had to share with you a recent birthday gift from my fiancé!
Alexander Wang Morgan Hobo $835
This Alexander Wang Morgan Hobo just came out! If you love this style, you better get it quick, otherwise, it could end up being a wait listed item like the Rocco Satchel!

Beaching It With Pucci
July 15th, 2011I have always been a HUGE fan of Pucci but after spending a weekend with my Pucci beach bunny Kim Wolf, she has inspired me to write a post about the beautiful bikinis, cover ups and of course their fabulous beach totes!
I love the vibrant palette of colors and their signature geometric prints. Here are a few of my favorite pieces that you can find online now! These pieces should be worn individually so you don’t over due the statement. And you definitely don’t want to be all matchy-matchy.
Pucci Printed Triangle Bikini $395
Pucci Beach Tote $550
Pucci Sandals Sale $390
When we receive Pucci pieces, they always sell immediately! Here are some of my favorites pieces that have been previously available at Covet Shop.
Pucci Wallet - SOLD
Pucci Scarf - SOLD
We did just receive a pair of Pucci slides that will be available next week so make sure you keep your eye on the site!
