The Lady Noire Affair by Christian Dior

The Dior fashion house broadcasted on the Internet a 6 minute 30 second thriller on the 20th of May, directed by Olivier Dahan starring Marion Cotillard, muse of the legendary Lady Dior handbag.

Marion play a wonderfully dressed femme fatale and it’s almost like watching a 6 ½ minute Hitchcock film.

The idea behind the campaign is to turn Dior back into an iconic brand, with products that have a true iconic status.

On the mini film John Galliano commented:

“We wanted to capture the glamour, the intrigue, the heroine and the mysterious allure that radiates around her, Marion has brought the Dior woman to life. She is incredible.”

A print campaign will accompany the film and there may even be another chapter to the it.

I know for a fact that my mom will faint of excitement for she absolutely adores the bag!

I want a Hermes Jypsiere!!!

While my mom is the proud owner of 2 Hermes Birkin in blue and pink togo and a Kelly, it took her more than 4 years to get the bags. Jeez... To think that people are so crazy about some stuff made out of leather...well, at least that's the way my perception is...until i laid my eyes on the gorgeous Hermes Jypsiere Messenger Bag.

The bag is somewhat a messenger bag carved out of a Birkin, but its design is simple, unisex and subtle, which is a breathe of fresh air compare to bag that literally splash their logos all over the bag, which could get a tad boring.

So, being the naive dude i always am, i asked my mom to check out the bag for me at a Hermes boutique, guess what? The friggin bag cost the same amount of money as a Birkin!!! Jeez... And on top of that, there's a wait list as well. Sad... One could only hope... Sigh... Now i understand why people are so crazy about Hermes, they have the "oomph" which makes people go all agag with their presence. Subtle, trendy yet classy. Ahh...if only i were Posh Spice, who, according to some media myths, she herself owned up to a hundred Birkin and Kelly. I want one in coffee togo leather!!!

Fendi Floral Box Clutch

I'm always a Vuitton-Gucci kind of guy, so Fendi never really works for me, but when i lay eyes on this gorgeous little clutch at purseblog.com, i know i had to blog about it. It's gorgeously designed with silk roses on the exterior, which are all in a very soft, sensuous color and they exudes a very elegant yet flirty fashion. The price tag, on the other hand, well, let's just say it's not really worth it. LOL!

I know my mom would hate it, since she loves huge hobos which she could basically stuff everything inside without giving much thought.

Shoe Fetish

Ok, first of all,
i am not a shoe fetish person, nor i am into wearing women's shoes..
