Label Love: Alice By Temperley

There's nothing we enjoy more than the news that one of our favorite designers has released a diffusion line, meaning owning a piece of their creative brilliance isn't going to break the bank... completely, anyway. Alice Temperley's Temperley London label has been around since 2000, but she's recently unveiled Alice by Temperley, a quintessentially London-inspired line containing flirty printed and striped sundresses, skinny pants, dresses, and jackets. The pieces were made for mixing and matching for a youthfully irreverent look full of breton stripes, florals, and polka dots. It's a playful take on Temperley London's signature bold, embellished ensembles, at a significantly smaller price point ($95 for tops to $595 for a leather jacket).

Bag Of The Week: The Temperley London Pandora Bag

I know it's been a while since I shared scoop with you, but I've been swamped planning the BagTrends Arm Candy Party. I'm pleased to say the event was a big success and we're already discussing dates for the next party; I'm personally on the hunt for the right mix of designers to spotlight. But, back to the bag-a-licious matters at hand. Despite the recession, depression, Wall Street turmoil and mortgage crisis, I'd still like to window shop €“ it doesn't hurt and it's therapeutically healing! Right now, with my mouth open, I'm causing a serious fog cloud at the window that holds this Temperley London Pandora Bag. The evil inside this Pandora's Box is only the price tag. Otherwise, I'm all over this retro handbag style €“ love the frame openings, the piping (that to me kind of forms a snake eye), the merlot color and the custom gold hardware. It's low on the pocket count, but I think I'm willing to overlook that point!
