This striking sandal‘s barely there silhouette boasts impossible-to-miss style. Reflective onlays amplify its figure-enhancing razzle-dazzle, and you’ll want to pair it with hemlines short enough to flaunt the flirty cutouts. A zip-in heel means you can dress and dash as needed.

Giuseppe Zanotti was born in San Mauro Pascoli, an Adriatic town with a long tradition in shoemaking. He has worked in luxury footwear for women for over twenty years, beginning as a design apprentice before making a name for himself as a footwear designer for Italian and international companies. What makes his collections unique is their consummate synthesis of design awareness and quality: “design awareness keeps you up to speed with the major trends that, season after season, dominate the worlds of ready to wear and haute couture; and it’s also important for building up a repertory of ideas and images taken from music videos, from art, the cinema, from design, in short from everything which reflects changing fashions,” explains Zanotti. “Technique and taste work in a reciprocal relationship, allowing all these ideas to come together.” Zanotti is clearly a designer with an exceptionally refined sensibility, a man whose tastes are as international in their outlook as his personality is unique.

New aquisitions – and a mystery purse

I recently purchased a lot of very fine vintage clothing and accessories from a woman who had collected for years but decided she did not have time to devote to having her own store. I will be listing these items soon and will continue to for quite a while! My husband has been very supportive and is making room for this new lot, which is not an easy task!

I thought you might like to see this cool 1920s purse that I listed today. It’s a bit of a mystery….

I consulted with the Vintage Fashion Guild experts and the concensus was that the frame is from the 1920s but the bag itself looks to be an addition and not the original. The fabric is an embroidered cloth that has been beaded beautifully with multi-colored beads into roses. The fabric is fragile and is fraying in places. It is pulling away from the frame on one side near the top. The interior is lined in silk velvet and is edged with silk roses. The clasp does not totally close anymore, but does hold together. It looks like someone had a beautiful bit of upholstery fabric and they decided to bead it and make a purse out of it. It is very charming. The chain is unattached on one side and does not look original.

The purse measures 5″ across at the top and 7″ at the widest part, near the bottom.

Authenticity Guide: Chanel Caviar Patchwork Hobo Bag

Although we have our online authenticity guide, we still like to feature certain bags here on The Closet so you can really learn the details of spotting an authentic piece. We recently got in a Chanel Caviar Patchwork Hobo Bag and after discussing the key authenticity points with our in-house authenticator Chelsea, we’re breaking down the authentication process for this specific Chanel bag.

Photobucket

Step 1: Overall construction and quality

  • Check the leather–it should be of high quality. For this specific bag, it should feel soft but not flimsy.
  • The lining should be a nice textile (almost cloth-like). It should feel substantial and not too thin.

Photobucket

Step 2: Stitching

  • Be sure all stitching lines up across the bag (including pockets, flaps etc).
  • Check for even and symmetrical stitching.
  • Stitches should be in tact. Loose threads can mean poor craftsmanship.

Photobucket

Step 3: Hardware

  • For the most part Chanel uses either Lampo or Eclair zippers.
  • Some vintage bags have Chanel stamped zippers.
  • In this case, both zippers are Lampo.

Photobucket

Step 4: Hologram Sticker

  • A hologram sticker should be present on all recent bags. Chanel started using these in the mid 1980′s.
  • The sticker is either adhered onto the lining or onto a tag in the lining.
  • In modern Chanel bags, the hologram sticker features 2 Chanel monogram logos encased in a circle.
  • Modern hologram stickers have an ‘X’ imprint going through the sticker.

Purple Proenza Schouler (PS1) Bag (medium size) at $1595.00 is it worth it? I know one thing it

How many weddings are you going to this year?

DavieandChiyoI’ve got three so far, and I think it’s possible, come Valentine’s Day, there could be two more. I couldn’t be happier for my friends, but now I’m starting to think about what to wear and if I can get away with repeating anything (yes, even their happiness is all about me). I don’t know why this is, exactly, but for me, everything hinges on the handbag.

So first step is heading over to Davie & Chiyo (whose motto, ‘The Quest for the Perfect Clutch,’ just sings to me) and taking in the half-off sale on their adorable clutches. This means I can pick up the bag for the February and March evening weddings and have enough left over to splurge on a new pair of black slingbacks (maybe). I’m leaning toward the Baguette Clutch in Navy (12″ x 6″ x $44!), but I find the Robin Egg Flower bag or the Vintage Linen clutch equally lovely, and perfect for daytime events.

Michael Kors & His Efforts to Help Japan

Michael Kors, like most designers, is always quick to lend a hand in regards to helping others. So when Michael Kors created this deep berry colored bag for The Great East Japan Earthquake Relief Effort, it was simply fashion to the rescue! Not only did he create this lovely bag for the relief effort, but he is also donating 100% of the profits! How stellar is that?! This bag launched this morning, January 22nd, & will be available online for the next 24 hours. After this time, it can be purchased in only select MK stores across the country. So get them while they’re hot ladies, & help a GREAT cause!
