Ferosh Or What?

I so deserve this as a loyal Prada customer and devotee. I'll chuck my iPhone in the bin on the day this lovely jewel rests in my hand. I present to you the fabulous LG KE850 Prada Phone & LG KE850 Prada Active Case.

Another NY Treasure - Lucky Beggar Purse

One of my favourite NY culture icons, but with a different function this time.

This clever leather change purse is designed in the likeness of the iconic New York paper coffee cup. A portion of the proceeds from each purse is donated to HELP USA, an organization that has helped the homeless since 1986, $30 at MOMA

Coco Would Be Confused...

I already covered the ferosh Chanel ski attire (which would work well in Aspen), but this is a tad more out there. Way out there. I love Chanel dearly. Well, Coco's Chanel anyhow, but this makes me question any medications Karl Lagerfeld might be taking right now. Sometimes The NYT highlights some odd choices.

$195, available at select Chanel Stores and Jeffrey New York (212) 206-3928

Finally!

I was just whining about how cool it would be if you could pick your own custom wordy bits, and then like magic - now you can! 10 bucks for 20 words, or 7 bucks for 10, I think. So, I made a list of 20 words, but that didn't fill all my needs. So I bought another 20, and almost got everything I wanted on the list. But, third time's a charm, so I went back for 20 more words. Yup, I spent 30 bucks for 60 words. LOL.

I have most of the other packs, and there were always a few that I thought should have there, but weren't. And I wanted some flexible words to use with the ones from Basic Bits to create a whole batch of new combinations.
About, Adventure. Adventures, Anatomy, Best, Birthday, Blimey, Brilliant, Brit, Brooklyn, Chicago, Chuffed, City, Coast, Coney Island, Cor, Create, Day, Definition, Downtown, East, Favourite, Friend, Friends, Here, Imagine, Interview, Library, Life, Liverpool, London, Look, Los Angeles, Lower, Manchester, Memo, Memories, Menu, North, Notes, NYC, Parade, Portrait, Shopping, Side, South, Strummer, Thing, Things, This, Thoughts, UK, Upper, Uptown, Village, Week, West, Wishlist, Worst, Year. (That should count up to 60, I hope.)

Let It Snow!

Winter is not the time to be un-fabulous. Freezing your ass off is no excuse for looking like crap. And apparently the (sacred) Chanel feels much the same way. They may be oh-so-last season, but the 2006 Fall/Winter line was inspired.

The skis have a wooden core but are covered in Chanel’s signature quilted leather. Although these are designed to be used it is unknown how they will perform on snow and whether the leather will deteriorate due to the amount of snow that it will come into contact with.

Cutest Thing Ever

On my endless quest to save as much of the pre-Disneyesque NYC as I can -- or least celebrate the New York I love, I am always on the lookout for unique things. This may be the cutest thing ever.

A ceramic version of the Classic NYC Coffee Cup. You used to be able to see these EVERYWHERE. But they're starting to fade away. Only $12 each too.

I still haven't gotten around to finding a welder to transform the Coney Island subway sign into a floating headboard yet. It's only of my favourite things I've collected.
