Onde Vertige EDP


Onde Vertige EDP is Giorgio Armani's latest fragrance. The designer says he prefers to sometimes cater to Hollywood because millions see movies compared to the handful that see the fashion shows. Armani gained popularity when he designed suits for Richard Gere in American Gigolo and most recently for Christian Bale in the Dark Knight. The bottle has a red tassle which matches the red carpet theme for Oscar night.

Proenza Schouler PS1


Proenza Schouler reveals its first handbag by accident. The PS1 bag was tested on females in NYC since the designers wanted some feedback. Now the cat's out of the bag and the collection has come to stores like Barneys, just before the launch of her shoe line. There are three styles; a large or small bag and a clutch. They come in material from chocolate leather, mustard suede, and white python. Crocodile is available by special order. They are not overdone with labels, but has details like moire print lining or a laid back knot on the strap. The only drawback may be the price with bags ranging from $900-2,000.
