Introducing the New Tiffany & Co. Leather Collection – Perfect Bridal Clutches

Tiffany & Co. introduced their new leather collection today. Famous for the gorgeous diamonds and other fine jewelry, they have now forayed into the luxury handbag market. Tiffany had acquired Lambertson Truex mid 2009 and through this new acquisition, have designed for them, some beautiful and timeless purses.
Classic Tiffany touches are infused in each piece – including custom designed hardware, Tiffany Blue leather interiors, and Tiffany Blue enamel.
“The collection captures the spirit of American sportswear and its exuberant approach to life in town, in the country and from coast to coast,” says Richard Lambertson. “We also find great inspiration in Tiffany’s timeless style and its heritage of refined accessories.” Referring to the duo’s design process, John Truex says that “we might start with a particular color or silhouette and then draw from Tiffany’s world of beauty and sophistication to make a new design. The result is something unique, yet unmistakably Tiffany.”

Here are just some of their gorgeous pieces that would be the perfect accent to your wedding day attire.

Luxury Brands for Less – Bridesmaid Dresses & Bridal Party Gifts

MWC_Fascinating_Finds
Much to my husband’s chagrin, I love to shop. And to my wallet’s delight, these wonderful shopping sites have popped up to save me a ton of money on luxury brands sometimes with discounts up to 80%. Brands that I’ve come across include: Pour La Victoire, 7 for All Mankind, Spa Chakra, Furla, Betsey Johnson, and a ton others. They have some gorgeous gowns that can double as bridesmaid dresses – I’m sure your bridesmaids will thank you for saving them a lot of money, and beautiful shoes as well. If you keep your eyes open, you can easily find bridesmaid gifts, cufflinks for your groom to be, and mother of the bride dresses as well.
Ideeli is free to join, but they have an upgraded membership that allows you to shop sales one hour before it’s open to it’s free members. They have their Red Sales every so often and on those days, they slash the prices up to as much as 90% off. The sales start at 9am PST every morning and you only have 10 minutes to check out once you place an item in your cart. But, items “fly off the shelves” fast, so if you want it, you’ll have to check out even faster!

Gilt is another favorite site of mine. Actually, their iPad app is to die for. I check it every single morning at 9am PST. Their user interface is so easy to use. Shopping on the app is a breeze. The only thing that I dislike is that they only allow you to purchase 5 items at a time. I know. Should I really be buying more than 5 items? Their branding is beyond wonderful – they’ve thought of everything – when my order arrived, I thought it was Christmas time. Everything was wrapped so beautifully in black tissue paper, with a black notecard printed in gold foil that thanked me for my order. They even had printing done on the inside of the cardboard box. This site has gorgeous everything. And once again, you can easily find bridesmaid dresses, gifts, flower girl dresses, and more.

Another favorite site of mine is One King’s Lane. They’ve featured Bridal Bar’s bedsheets and Delphine Studio’s Letterpress Stationery just recently. This site has gorgeous furniture and furnishings. I’m looking forward to their Mitchell Gold sale on Thursday. LOVE their slipcover sofas! They launch sales events every weekday starting at 8 am PST/11 am EST. Each sale lasts a total of 72 hours. Quantities are limited, so shop early to avoid missing out on something you love. If you want a $10 discount code, leave a comment and I’ll email you one.

So, happy shopping and I hope you all have a wonderful week!

With a heart of crushed violet leaves and hints of lemon and spearmint, it unfolds like a bouquet of fresh-cut flowers.” – $95
