Laura and I had a chance to drive down to see the Southern California Trojans compete in their first home track meet and see Karen proudly show off her new purchase… a Marc Jacobs ‘Hobo’. I am learning what is a ‘clutch’, ‘satchel’, ‘tote’, ‘sholder bag’, ‘flap bag’, ‘baby bag’… and the list goes on. Actually, it’s fun.
Karen and I simulaneously were talking on the phone, instant messagering and surfing the web for a ‘large bag.’ Karen felt she needed a large bag to: 1) carry her lunch or dinner when she was at school 2) carry a second pair of dress shoes when needed and 3) Carry those things that she wanted to carry separately from her bookbag.
We searched the sales! Sometimes, if you look hard… you can find some real gems. Karen has a nice listing of the places she shops on her site… here they are:
Style.com
Fragrance directory
Neiman Marcus
Prada Parfumes
Bergdorf Goodman
Nordstrom
Saks fifth avenue
Lafayette 148
Kenneth Cole
Dana Buchman
Shu uemura
Giorgio Armani
Karen has a larger listing of designers and stores on her blog!
Kristin and I will shop when she gets home… so, I am ‘working on it’… trying to be a little more like ‘Nigel’ and a little less like old dad.
