Gucci New Jackie Guccissima Shoulder Bag

Tuesday, July 7th, 2009

Logo bags are kind of five minutes ago, right? They’ve been kind of five minutes ago for a couple of years now. But despite the fact that I’ve never been a big fan of bags with branding all over them, I’ve always had a soft spot for Gucci. I like the pattern that their traditional logo fabric creates, and I like how it looks when it’s embossed into their Guccissima leather. I think it works because even if it didn’t serve as a logo, it would still be a fairly simple and attractive pattern.

And that’s why I like the Gucci New Jackie Guccissima Shoulder Bag. Last season when the New Jackie came out, I wrote about how much I like the functional and comfortable shape of the bag, and that hasn’t changed a bit. When you combine super soft, matte leather with the Guccissima embossed logo, it provides great texture without having to mess with the bag’s structure or premise. The color of this bag seals the deal for me - grey is an enormous, important color for Fall 2009, and this grey is a perfect, blue-undertoned, medium grey that will go with almost anything in the average woman’s wardrobe. It’s mighty expensive for regular leather, thought, which is a major deterrent for me adding it to my wardrobe. Buy through Saks for $3250.

The Definitive Guide to Ladies Golfing Fashion

Tuesday, July 7th, 2009

I was perusing Golf for Women the other day and wondered where are the women who wear the golf attire modeled in women’s golf magazines? I’ve never seen women, professionals included, who would dress in such expensive and outrageous clothes!

It’s easy to spend money outfitting yourself for golf. Hats, sunglasses, gloves, shirts, shorts, socks, windbreakers and shoes all add up quickly, even if you shop the sales. Add in equipment, bag and cart and you have to play quite often to keep down the “CPU” cost per use.

One glossy advertisement showed a model in short shorts (like that’s allowed on courses!) that cost $275, the Tse golf shirt ($595), jacket by Ralph Lauren ($185) and two-toned Utuser shoes ($425).

That comes up to $1480; I could never hope to get the CPU on that outfit anywhere near a normal level in my lifetime! Don’t get me wrong; I love clothes. I really love shoes, but could never afford, or want, golf shoes that cost more than the national budget of some small countries.

Granted, you want comfortable shoes that don’t look like something your grandmother would wear, but you can easily find less expensive and fashionable shoes. I have several really stylish golf outfits, none of them brand name. If I totaled the cost of all of them up it would not come up to the price of the Tse golf shirt. Personally, I’d rather have several stylish outfits and one outrageously priced one.

If I were to wear a $1480 outfit to play golf, I would simply be too worried about getting dirty or perspiring to play a decent round.

In terms of picking shoes to go with the outfit the first thing to consider is that Your feet need to be comfortable! Have you ever developed a blister while walking or running? It’s all you can think about and it ruins the experience. Don’t let uncomfortable shoes ruin your golf game.

This is one area where you shouldn’t let your frugality make the decision for you. You will be wearing these shoes many times and they should be considered an investment. Comfort should be your biggest concern when buying shoes. Your foot should not move at all on your heel when you walk, yet your toes shouldn’t feel cramped. Have you shoes professional fit to your feet and walk around in them before you buy them.

Proper golf shoes should be waterproof so that your feet remain dry in damp conditions. Good socks are important too; they will wick perspiration away from you feet, keeping your feet dry and comfortable. All golf courses prohibit metal spiked shoes in the effort to protect their delicate greens. Purchase shoes that allow you to change the rubber spikes easily, and while you’re there, purchase some extras. You never know when you might lose one. Replace the spikes when they become worn.

With all the things you have to worry about while playing golf, your feet shouldn’t be one of them. When it comes to golf footwear, quality counts.

GUCCI SUKEY PYTHON TOTE BAG BRINGS HIGH-CLASS AND EXOTICNESS

Monday, July 6th, 2009

Punctuate your every look this fall and winter with Gucci Handbags. Coming in modern neutral shade already makes this bag interesting for the season’s use, but aside from that, the exoticness it exudes and also its hint of bohemian luxe all the more makes this an attention grabbing carryall.

Crafted from dark brown python with dark brown leather trim and light gold hardware, you know that this piece will surely bring high-class glam on your totality. Despite coming in an already striking exotic look, this tote is still designed with fringing detail on the front, making it exude a hint of toet luxe. ’sukey’ large tote with double handles, tab snap closure, side snaps, pleat detail, detachable interlocking G charm, studs, and inside zip pocket. 43 x 15 x 30 cm. 19 cm drop.

Aside from that luxurious detail, opening this gucci handbags would also be luxurious since it features black faceted gem detail with designer-embossed clasp fastening. On the inside is an ochre satin lining with extra compartments for additional storage to its already large dimension.

And though this Gucci Purses looks very luxurious and exquisite, I think the tag of $2,179 is a bit overpriced. But anyway, if you have the money, then this will surely keep others jealous.

Louis Vuitton handbags and celebrity

Sunday, July 5th, 2009

So obviously the luxurious Louis Vuitton handbag matches with her equally classic and luxurious totality. It retails for a hefty price, and indeed, being an LV purse plus the fact that this is a practical carryall, you know it should be worth its price.

 It is made from soft and supple calf leather and it comes with subtle black-dipped, meticulous and precise perforated monogram pattern all throughout. Granted Madonna looks a bit dull in her looks, the luxurious Louis Vuitton handbag Mahina XL handbag still obviously stood out from her rather neutral ensemble as it shows a beautiful contrast against it.

This is actually a moon-inspired bag, with its name coming from a lunar deity in Polynesian culture, so obviously, the design all over has to do with it. The leather is softly drummed to pull up the grain, while shiny golden brass hardware adds a classier appeal to its totality.It has an open top with banded push-lock closure, showing microfiber lining with leather-trimmed zipped pocket and D-ring on the inside

 Now if your entire essentials still don’t fit, the buckled bands on the sides that create subtle gathers can be adjusted to widen the bag. This can be carried through its rolled leather handles though I doubt you would wear it on your shoulders since it would make you look odd.I wonder what Madonna has got into her very large Louis Vuitton Mahina XL Handbag.

But anyway, though the contrast on her ensemble looks great, you could still wear this with any types and colors of outfits since this bag shows versatility.

Gucci shoes for doing sport

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

Tennis is a game that requires constant movement: forward and backward, side-to-side, running, jumping, lunging, and quick pivots. A good tennis Gucci shoe will help you comfortably endure the rigors of the game’s quick stops and starts, short sprints and frequent lateral movements while protecting your feet and helping you to perform at your best. With so many choices, knowing what Gucci shoe is best for you can be difficult. Taking into account your playing style, the type of court on which you typically play and your foot type are essential to making the proper Gucci shoe selection.

You might ask, why can’t I wear my regular running Gucci shoes to play tennis? Running Gucci shoes on a tennis court are a sprained or broken ankle waiting to happen. Running Gucci shoes are built with a thick, soft heel to maximize cushioning for straight-forward, heel-to-toe foot impacts. Runners don’t cut sharply sideways, and the running Gucci shoe sole, especially the heel, is much too unstable for the sideways movements of tennis. Athletic Gucci shoes protect the feet from the stresses of the sport for which they are designed. So, when playing tennis, wear Gucci shoes specially made for the sport of tennis. Tennis Gucci shoes provide stability for side-to-side movement. They are heavier and stiffer than running Gucci shoes, with flat, durable soles and the toes are supported for stop-and-go action.

Which kind of tennis court surface you play on for the majority of your practices and matches will dictate the type of tennis Gucci shoe you need. Tennis Gucci shoes for hard court play typically offer an extremely durable outsole, a leather or synthetic leather upper for strength and are designed to provide good lateral support and stability for tennis-specific movements. Tennis players that play on hard court surfaces should choose tennis Gucci shoes that are durable and resistant to wear to stand up to the wear and tear of playing on concrete. Repeated play on hard courts will wear the tread off the soles of tennis Gucci shoes and loss of tread leads to loss of traction and increased slipping. The part of the tennis Gucci shoe that covers the toes should have extra protection on the outside as well.
