Alexander McQueen Horse Shoe Novak

The death of Alexander McQueen marked the loss of an exceptional designer in the fashion industry. His legacy will live on but whoever will replace the face behind the name will have big shoes to fill. He or she will need to satisfy everyone’s expectations, and make a mark impressive enough to preserve the McQueen appeal that catapulted the brand to fame; or better yet, surpass it.

If you are a bag collector and would like to keep a piece of McQueen’s last creations,  we recommend you get the Horse Shoe Novak Convertible Crossbody.

Alexander McQueen Horse Shoe Novak, US$2,939

Savor this meticulously crafted Alexander McQueen handbag that features a metal horse shoe accent, punched leather trimmings, and a decorative turn lock. The bag’s appeal is a contradiction of sorts – classicism mixed with modernity; balanced but off-balanced; conventional but unconventional; Edwardian but very 21st century – clearly a combination that displays McQueen’s complex mind.

The sturdy tooled leather and impeccable Italian workmanship of this bag makes it an ultimate keeper, as it can last long enough to be an heirloom piece you can pass on to your kids and grand kids (provided you handle it with care).

Tim Gunn Vs. the Kardashian Sisters

These pictures of Kim Kardashian are old (think July 2009 old), but because of the recent news about Tim Gunn not liking the Kardashian sisters’ style, I thought it would be appropriate to bring these out again:

Also, the crossbody bag (worn as a shoulder bag) Kim K.’s using to carry her stuff in these pictures is now available on Shopbop.com:

There’s also a less expensive suede version, although it doesn’t really cost that much less:

As for Tim Gunn’s alleged “attack” on the Kardashians, his exact words were that although their fashion has a certain sexiness to it, he finds it “largely vulgar” and that it has a “cheapness and a tawdriness”.

You can see where Tim Gunn is coming from, being that he is a respected fashion consultant, an esteemed faculty member at Parson’s, and not to mention a much loved TV personality as a mentor to young designers on Project Runway. However, he can’t discount the fact that there is a huge hype and media interest surrounding the 3 raven-haired Kardashians. Tim Gunn may not agree with the Kardashian sisters’ taste in fashion, but it’s clearly not a requirement in becoming famous anymore.

Do you agree with Tim Gunn or do you like Kourtney, Kim and Khloe’s taste in clothes? Personally, I don’t see any reason to single out the Kardashian sisters because pretty much every starlet in Hollywood dresses the same way they do.
