Congratulations Don – Last week’s contest winner!
Toywatch looks like a million bucks
Luxurious and affordable, Toywatch is my new favorite thing! I’ve secretly wanted the Rolex Daytona in the boy size, but with a look-alike from Toywatch for $295, I am sold!
According to Toywatch website:
In the fall of 2006, Milan-based designer and wristwatch aficionado Marco Mavilla designed the first TOYWATCH. A lightweight, oversized plastic watch, inspired by high design timepieces, TOYWATCH is unexpected, arresting and irreverent. Under the direction of fine-watch collector and TOYWATCH USA CEO, Randy Gordon, TOYWATCH was brought to the USA in the summer of 2006. An anti-luxury statement in a luxury obsessed culture, TOYWATCH has become the “it” wristwatch and the “must-have” item among style influentials and tastemakers. The brand ignited a firestorm in the fashion, design and accessories industries and has been heralded as a sensation by the press.
Here is a recent press on Toywatch – the colorful ones are really great too.

See by Chloe Launched a Handbag line!
See by Chloe finally launched a gorgeous handbag line for Spring 09!
The concept is geared to the 18-to-30 age group, the styles such as these slouchy shoulder bags are inspired by sport bags from the ’70s. There are also glittery soft clutches, and logo-splashed cotton canvas shoppers (this is my fave). The leather is super soft and worn in, and price points are reasonable, ranging from $300-$675. Most of the styles will come towards March 09 so check back often! In the meantime, here are the styles we just got in.

We scoff at our holier-than-thou friends who proclaim that Electroclash is dead, six gin and tonics into the night. Clearly they haven’t spent enough time following the exploits of the ever changing mix of creative types that make up Chicks on Speed. Lucky for us the band/creative commune has collaborated with clothing label Insight to create some hyper-colorful, skate and surf inspired outfits. As what weather.com describes as a wintery mix unendingly descends upon us, this is the perfect mental vacation we needed. Ah, we just took a long, relaxed sigh thinking of groovy beach chicks wearing fluorescent bikini tops, wacky graphic shorts and pants, and chic sunglasses. Then we looked out the window and shed a tear.
Here’s some of what we got at Azalea:
