La Prairie Pure Gold

Saturday, February 4th, 2012


There are so many anti-aging products on the market, but short of various chemical treatments, there are not all that many products designed to de-age the skin. La Prairie’s Pure Gold is a Cellular Radiance Concentrate, a formula developed by the luxury cosmetics company to recapture the youth of the skin. The de-aging concentrate is a “microemulsion” of 24K gold micro-particles that “lifts, firms, resurfaces, brightens the skin.” The bottle contains just one ounce, so it shouldn’t take much to see results. Price: $525.

The simple bag is made of smooth leather that is slightly gathered at the top, where there is a thin leather belt encircling the opening and a heart charm attached. The lining is canvas and all the hardware is silver. It measures …

Louis Vuitton Vail Blanket Grimaud, Handbag of the Day

Saturday, February 4th, 2012


Based on the size and style of this new Vail Blanket Grimaud from Louis Vuitton, it is hard to determine whether it is intended to be used as a handbag or as a piece of luggage. It measures 17.7″ x 12.6″ x 10.2″, so let’s just say that it could be a handbag to carry an extra hat and gloves, protecting you from a winter chill, or a good-sized carry-on bag when traveling. Speaking of travel, the bag’s pattern was “inspired by the chic elegance of the Vail, Colorado.” It is made from lamb’s wool and cashmere, with a black …
