I am as sad as the rest of you about Kate Hudson splitting with her husband, but let's talk about her fabulous bag collection these days. Last week she was seen carrying a beautiful green Jimmy Choo bag and here she is today with almost the same bag in black! I would kill for just one of these. It is available at Neiman Marcus for $1,895, but on backorder until September 22nd. Click here to put your name on the list!
If the ring finger on your left hand is reserved "for him," what to do with the ring finger on your right? You need a right hand ring, of course!
Neiman Marcus is showing the usual array of great designer choices, including this pretty and feminine David Yurman ring for $800. We love the pink stone!

Every time I open up my closet door, I feel a little twinge of guilt. My precious shoe collection, that is most likely worth more than my wardrobe, is strewn haphazardly all over the floor! Every morning I tell myself I need to be more responsible and every once in a while I do get inspired, I put the fragile ones in their boxes, I line them all up nicely on the floor, but soon enough they are a mess again. For this reason I am excited to try these clear plastic shoe boxes from The Container Store.
According to The Container Store:
We use the clearest, virtually unbreakable plastic available to create a box that keeps your shoes visible while they're being protected. The remarkable simplicity of the design allows you to securely stack the boxes for efficiency, yet access your shoes with ease.
The handy little things are $1.99 each or $34.00 for a case of 20. Available here
Happy Organizing!
I am forever searching for the perfect pink lip color and I think I may have found it with this Trish McEvoy Pink Lip Set. These pinks look good on all skin and eye colors, except for maybe red heads (sorry guys!). You can buy the three piece set here for $40.00. It includes:
So I just came across this new tool and if it really works, it sounds amazing! It's the Angelica Cosmetics Light Tweez. It has a tiny flashlight attached to the end so you can see what you are doing in full light. There is also a handy little mirror.
According to the Angelica website,
Our tweezers are constructed of the highest quality materials and include high tensile steel tips for precise and fool-proof tweezing. "Light Tweez" is durable and built to last.
I don't have the best light for tweezing in my apartment, so I was instantly attracted to this product. For $14.50, it might be worth a shot, however it will be hard to give up my tried and true tool, Tweezerman, which is available here for $19.99.
Last week we told you about how Patent Leather is totally in for shoes, but really patent leather is hot for any accessory this Fall, including watches, handbags and belts!

While we are on the subject of travel, we thought we would do some research on some fashionable luggage options. Duffel bags are great because they are expandable and can fit more, but they always wind up breaking your back and chafing your neck when traveling. Ratty old valises are well made, but without wheels you are forced to pack light which is something that is just not always possible. Here’s a solution; why not get a fashionable and cool roller suitcase? Not only will you be able to spot any of these on the baggage carousel, you will walk around the airport looking internationally stylish! Here are a few ways to travel like the jet setters do:
1. Diane Von Furstenberg Metallic Signature Luggage Set . Hurry up - it's on sale now from $299 to $780. I love that you can buy an entire matching set - it's like a luggage outfit! These pieces look cool and they are very sturdy. They are made out of poly, cotton and metallic fibers, and are available in pewter and bronze. The inside is lined with the DVF logo and it's water resistant.
Two more fabulous options, so read more
Unfortunately only one of our Top 5 Finalists is going to win the Chloe Edith bag, but good news, I found an awesome look-a-like!
