Serena, Chained

blake lively white party.jpgDo you remember the head piece that Blake Lively wore in this season's Gossip Girl premier?

At the white party in the Hamptons she wrapped what looked like a bunch of silver chains around her head multiple times.

It was a bit sparkly but not too much - I have to have it for my wedding day!

I've called around and checked the website, but I'm not having any luck.

Does anyone know where to find it? Or something similar?

Vintage London

Aug 01, 2008 @ 9:22am

karlie for topshop.jpgI'm planning a trip to London. I'm going to be there for a whole week and I'm prepared to do some serious damage.

But now that Topshop's opening here, it lacks that special punch. Besides, I'm really more of a vintage girl.

Can you guys suggest some of the better vintage stores? I'll definitely head to Camden and Portobello Road but I'm realy interested in going to the higher end stores too.

Preferably ones that sell vintage designer merchandise that's still in really great shape.

Thank you!

Shopping in New York

Aug 01, 2008 @ 9:14am

i heart new york.jpgHi Everyone!

I'm headed to the Big Apple for the first time this summer and I'm looking for some shopping advice.

Every tour book names Soho, but isn't that just like any other mall - outside of course?

I want to be able to spend my money on things that no one at home will have. I'm not coming all the way to New York to shop at the Gap and I know Fashionista's readers know about the best hidden places.

Thanks!

Searching for a Timeless Bag

Jul 15, 2008 @ 9:14am

valentino bag.jpgI want to invest in a great, classic handbag - but i dont want to spend all my money on an "IT" bag only for it to be relegated to the back of my closet by next season.

Can anyone suggest a classic bag that will still be chic in two years time, won't appear on the arm of every tween next year and won't be considered passe next season?

Thanks for your help!

Crazy for Gladiators - Help!

balenciaga gladiators.jpgHi!

I have been looking for knee high Gladiator sandals....

Everywhere.

I want the ones that are like the Chanel pair that came out with last year.

But all I find are tacky looking imitations.

Please, no eBay!

Somewhere else!

I'm on a Mission to Find These in a Size 7

Jun 15, 2008 @ 10:54pm

mj mouse flats.jpgOkay - last summer, I visited New York and I fell in love with a pair of shoes.

They are Marc Jacobs, pony hair, spotted, mouse flats. He has made several versions of this shoe including metallic and patent leather, but I want to find the original. I saw them on eBay a while ago but they were already sold.

I love them so so much, but I need to know, is this mission impossible? Or can it be done? And if so, any ideas where I could find them?

The shoes are at left!

Thanks, xo

I Need These Sandals

Jun 05, 2008 @ 3:18pm

bloomingdales sandals.jpgHello -

I've been scouring the internet/retail stores for the attached sandals that I saw in a Bloomingdale's catalog a few weeks back. The dress on the page was listed as being sold at Bloomies, but the sandals were not.

They just seem like the perfect brown, leather, woven sandals to complement any outfit, still look chic and look relatively comfortable. This girl likes options when stomping around Manhattan.

Any idea on where I could get them or locate a similar pair? Figured you guys might have an idea...

Thanks!

Amanda

I am A Shoppingist

iekeliene in HH.jpgI'm moving to London.


I've lived there before so know where to shop and all that -

but this time I'm moving with disposable income.

I know the scene in NY - where to find sample sales and all that good stuff.

I don't work in fashion (I just wear it!) so can someone give me the lay of the fashion land in London?
