arm candy

Fall 2011 bags are here, and you best be getting excited. After waiting months and months (and months) from seeing them on the runway in spring, you can finally have your pick of the gorgeous leathers and minks coming out. From the classic Diane von Furstenberg to the edgy Marc Jacobs, you can be sure there is something out there that will be your favourite piece of arm candy for the next few months.

Sorry this is a couple days late!

Mulberry. This has been sitting on my desktop for weeks and weeks. I want this one so badly.

The now infamous The Row bag. 

Kate Spade

DvF Harper Connect Bag. Perfect for carrying your iPad around.

high class

There are some majorly coveted pieces this season, and this editorial in Vogue US September issue featuring Anja Rubik does an (almost) incredible job showing them all off. From the shoe that every editor wants their hand on by Alexander Wang to Riccardo Tisci's mink bag, these are some key pieces you'll want in your closet... NOW. Or perhaps a slightly cheaper version, for all you broke girls like me out there.
 

Of course this is only a little sampling of some to die for pieces, so tomorrow or the next day, I'll show you some of the bags I've had my eye on (hint: DvF) and shoes I've had bookmarked for weeks, just so I can take a quick peek at them. The life of being poor and hopelessly in love with fashion is almost heartbreaking.

pre-fall

Now that the sun is finally shining and there is no rain in sight, I find it almost cruel to be thinking of pre-fall 2011 collections. However, I know I haven't posted in awhile (blame it on school, work, intern..) so I had to share this delicious collection from T by Alexander Wang.

The layered looks are lovely, and I'm loving the neutral palette of the collection

The maxi skirts are making me want to try it out again... 

 What do you think of this collection? Or of looking at pre-fall collections in May?
