Cleo Small Chainmail Bucket Bag, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags

I always like bucket bags, which is a little strange since I have yet to own one, but this time Halston Heritage does the shape up nicely with ultra-simplistic shaping and lots of shimmering black texture. The Cleo Small Chainmail Bucket Bag is a rare shoulder bag that can pull off an evening look easily with an exterior covered entirely in shiny black brass chainmail. The design looks seamless and it has a logo-embossed emblem placed prominently front and center. A great bag for when you want to look glamorous but comfortable at the same time. $450

Filed under: Handbags

Evoke classic and slightly old-fashioned glamour with this Alice Oversized Pleated Clutch by Halston Heritage. It's big for a clutch at 14" x 8" and is made of strategically folded and pleated metallic bronze and purple cracked leather. The only exterior adornment is a small golden designer-stamped plaque that sits below a larger cut-out "H" emblem. There's no handle or wrist strap, the top closes via hidden magnetic closure, and the interior is lined in black canvas. A great way to indulge in the current metallics trend but in a way that will last well into future seasons. $245

12 Chic Capes for the Fall

by Marsha Reid (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Apparel

Capes seem to be everywhere this season. They serve well as chic transitional outwear for chilly weather without unnecessarily committing to a bulky, blizzard-ready winter jacket.

After browsing through an abundance of styles, it was a pleasant surprise to find capes that are laid back and casual as well as super luxurious and elegant. The choices are endless matching whatever occasion you may encounter.

Given a cape's voluminous silhouette, add balance by pairing with slim fitting trousers or even jeans and viola - you have yourself a stylish and on trend outfit with little effort.

Initially, I would suggest wearing heels to add height and avoid looking frumpy, but when I came across Gryphon's Sherlock Cape ($595) - featured to the right - I was actually surprised how well it works even with the most casual of outfits. What a great look for cool fall days while you're out and about.
