Fab Redux: Rainbow Belt
When we talk transitional, we're talking cardigans, skirts, boots, and lightweight knits. We're also talking pieces that make your outfit pop. Throw on all of the above and cinch them with something exciting, like this Elaborate Vintage 1980s Woven Cord Belt With Gold Medallion Detail ($44).
Maloles Doctor Bag: Love It or Hate It?
I forever love multiwoven styles. That's why this Maloles Doctor Bag ($328, originally $655) stood out to me. I like the embroidery and the blue turn lock, but I'm not loving the shape of the satchel.
Double The Look For Less: L.A.M.B. Bronze Woven Gala Sandals
I knew I had to have these L.A.M.B. Bronze Gala Woven Sandals ($325) as soon as I laid eyes on them. They're perfectly woven, and the crisscross detail is the cherry on top.
Fabworthy: Sigerson Morrison Weave T-Strap Sandal
Nicolas Ghesquière's Spring '08 collection for Balenciaga wasn't all too wearable but it was all together stunning. One of the trends that blossomed from that show were the multicolored weave footwear. Nicole Richie already got her feet on the boots, so let's also get in on the hot trend with these Spring/Summer-ready Sigerson Morrison T-Strap Woven Sandals ($425).
Trend Alert: The Weave
I have always been drawn to the weave. I think it's my lifelong adoration for Bottega Veneta (see amazing Spring wedge at left) and its luxurious woven leathers. Because Bottega has been around for so long, many copy cats have chimed in on the earthy motif.
On Our Radar: Loeffler Randall for Target Has Arrived
The Loeffler Randall for Target collection has hit the racks. Now through March 28, replenish your wardrobe with feminine handbags and shoes. Currently up for grabs are 12 handbags and eight kinds of flats; I'm crushing on this Loeffler Randall Woven Cream Clutch ($20).
The Look For Less: Bottega Veneta Woven Clutch
Bottega Veneta is known for its intricately woven bags. Too bad it's also known for its steep prices, which go for $1000 and up. Even though this Bottega Veneta Metallic Knotted Clutch is on sale ($5,159, originally $7,700), it's still crazy expensive.

Trend Alert: Woven Leather Bags
We all know by now that imitation is one of the highest forms of flattery. The pioneer of woven leather bags, Bottega Veneta, must have accepted this a long time ago. I am proud to announce that I own a Bottega.
Dolce & Gabbana Hand-Woven Hobo: Love It or Hate It?
I am torn about this Dolce & Gabbana Metallic Hand-Woven Hobo that Lolipop89 posted in the Love It or Hate It? group. It could potentially work with a Summery beach ensemble, but I'm not so sure it's worth paying over a $1000 for a bag I can only wear during one season.
Jason Wu Takes on Tse
There's more reason to love Wu now that the designer has taken on a new project: designing a capsule collection for Tse. “When she [Tse's CEO, Christina Peng-Gerschultz] asked me if I wanted to do a capsule [line], I thought, ‘This could be interesting,’” said Wu. “In many ways, I am probably the least expected designer to do this, because Tse’s aesthetic is so different from my own, but that’s one reason I wanted to do it.”
The collection will be comprised of woven and knitwear pieces dipped in colorful hues.
