 Celine Laser Cut Fringe Clutch Bag

The latest in Fashion bag is the Fringe bag, in case you were wondering.  It is the must-have fashion item for Spring 2014.  It’s already seen in the streets by many fashion addicts.  Fringe bags are a bit Bohemian, a bit young and cool.  Enjoy!

And by Karl Lagerfeld I mean Etienne Russo, who is the genius set designer behind many Fashion House shows, among his many clients are Celine, Lanvin, Dries Van Noten and many other favorites.  And you may be laughing at me, and with me, at this question but, my otherworldly dream comes from a post I wrote back in August where as a joke I doubted that women whose closets are full with Chanel bags and clothes will most likely not be seen in the aisles of our local Super Market.  Boy was I wrong when six months later Karl Lagerfeld and Etienne Russo turned the Grand Palace into a mega supermarket for Chanel FW 2014 Paris Fashion Show.  Karl’s audacity did not only appear on the design set where every product on display was labeled as a Chanel product but also on the clothes.  Karl keeps on modernising Chanel and putting the speed on the wheels every season.  This time he presented a collection of ragged leggings, metallic jeans paired with sneakers and sporty flat boots.  There were also cropped jackets, of course quilted.  Apparently after the show all the food on display was going to be distributed to the homeless.  A fabulous cause.  Enjoy!

If the kitchen is the heart of the house then the library is the brain.  Cliche, but true.  A Home library that is both cozy and functional will secure its place in the house as the room where everyone will want to be.  Regardless of your decor style, weather classic or modern, libraries should provide a restful and inspiring atmosphere to the user.  In order to be functional I think it’s a good idea to organize the books first by categories and then by color.  I’m not a big fan of covering books to make them look the same color I prefer the more realistic appeal of a library full of non-covered books.  Rolling or wheel ladder for high ceiling libraries is a great idea.
