EQUESTRIAN QUESTION: WHAT’S IN A NAME?
If Hermès is the name, then a whole lot we suppose. At least from a price perspective, that is.. WWD reports that their new new fine jewelry line designed by Pierre Hardy and inspired by horse hooves will range in price from $23,675 for a pair of clip-on rose gold and black jade earrings, to $880,000 for a diamond necklace. That makes even a Birkin look cheap.

SteveMadden - HAYLOW PLATINUM women's dress high platform I just bought these and I think they’re going to be my signature summer dress shoe. They’re nude so not only are they on trend they match pretty much everything and they elongate your legs.
Plus I have to say that they are shockingly comfortable, not that one should ever purchase shoes because they’re comfortable.

Neutrals | All | Designer Shoes | NET-A-PORTER.COM How timely, net-a-porter (the be all end all of internet fashion and shopping) has a TON of nude shoes. Clearly a bit more of an investment than the Steve Maddens but they’re high quality. I always am reminded (in a good way) that you get what you pay for when I wear a pair of Michael Koors wedges that are from like 4 years ago. They still look and feel AMAZING!
The net-a-porter mag has a whole article on nude fashion as well but my flash player and I are in a fight so you’ll have to seek it out yourself.

Is ELLE for Sale?
Sources inside Time Inc (InStyle, People, Real Simple) and ELLE’s parent company, Hachette Filipacchi, believe there is some credibility to the rumor that the crown jewel in the French publisher’s crown may be for sale. Particularly after departures of the two top executives there in the past six weeks: Carol Smith (former Senior Vice Pres/ Chief Brand Officer) to Conde Nast and Brent Allen (Vice President, Brand Development) to Hearst.
