Exclusive: Reed Krakoff Launches Today on Net-a-Porter


NET-A-PORTER.COM is delighted to introduce the Reed Krakoff Collection for fall 2010 today. After more than 20 years in the fashion industry, Reed Krakoff has created his own comprehensive line of beautifully made ready-to-wear, handbags, shoes, sunglasses and jewelry.
 
The collection articulates the notion of American sportswear with a practical utility and modern take on craftsmanship that redefines luxury. It reflects an inspired juxtaposition of contrasting elements—subtle and confident, industrial and poetic, tailored and fluid—expressing a strong and sensual femininity. Outerwear, especially the iconic military coat, sleek leather skirts and messenger bags in a rich mix of materials are slated to become your new uniform.

“I’m designing for an intelligent, confident woman who has her own sense of understated style and an appreciation for the way everything looks, feels and performs," says Krakoff. “She has a timeless look, preferring pieces that subtly underscore her individual strength and character.”
 
Holli Rogers, NET-A-PORTER’s Buying Director says: “Reed Krakoff’s collection of military meets minimalism proves his ability to simplify the trends and identify a perfect look. His way of contrasting feminine silhouettes with menswear-inspired tailoring exudes a fluid, subtle richness.”

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.
