Casio Baby-G Lady's Watches For Fall

Halloween may be over our shoulders at this point, but autumn is in full swing with the colors to match. A perfect compliment to fall moods is this metallic orange colored Casio Baby-G watch (ref. BG1006SA-4B). Baby-G is a long standing collection of female themed G-Shock watches. Smaller and more feminine, Baby-G watches are very durable and fun - as well as not very expensive. The new collection for fall features colors such as black and pink, lime and aquamarine, orange and black, and more.

The watches are cutesy versions of the male classic, and contain much of the functionality expected in the line. Among other features, the watches are water resistant to 200 meters, have stopwatches, word time zones, alarms, full calendars, and more. The collection also has retro-style crystal guards that were quite popular back in the 80s. Not that I wear women's watches, but my favorite is this orange and black model - it reminds me of Halloween and pumpkin pie all at the same time. The Casio G-Shock Fall collection for 2010 pieces each retail for $79.

Richard Mille RM 016 Orange & Yellow Limited Edition Watches

by Ariel Adams (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Timepieces / Watches

The Americas (US, Canada, and some territory in the ocean) are getting a new limited edition Richard Mille watch in two colors. Based on the standard RM 016 model, this limited edition RM 015 DLC Titanium is done in a 38mm wide titanium case that has been DLC coated. There will be 15 models with the orange dial, and 15 models with the yellow dial.

The RM 016 is actually one of my favorite timepieces that Richard Mille offers. It is simple (in the context of Richard Mille watches), rectangular and quite thin (under 9mm). the edges of the case on the top and bottom are curved for comfort, and the dial is a mixture of "easy to read' and the popular skeletonized Richard Mille aesthetic. The movement is an automatic, and offers the time and the date with 55 hours of power reserve. The bolts of the case has a high-tech feel to the watch, and the design of the movement is quite impressive.

With a DLC coated titanium case the watch is gonna be light and quite scratch resistant. I would probably opt for a yellow dial in this watch. Price for each of the watches in this total of 30 piece set is $65,000.

Richard Mille RM011 Ti USA Brown Watch For Fall

by Ariel Adams (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Timepieces / Watches

Limited to 30 pieces, and only for the US and South American market, this brown version of the Richard Mille RM011 Ti is perfect for the fall season. I like the woodsy metallic brown PVD tone on the titanium case, and pumpkin pie colored rubber strap. Makes me want to spice it with cinnamon and serve it for Thanksgiving. The orange and brown tones here work together nicely. Don't forget, this is a serious luxury sports watch - so it ain't no turkey.

The watch is 40mm wide and 50mm tall. The RM 0111 movement is an automatic and has a flyback chronograph with synched 60 minute countdown timer, big date indicator (annual calendar), and an automatic rotor that can be adjusted for your lifestyle (more or less active). The movement has a power reserve of 55 hours - and more or less makes up the dial of the watch. As always, the face of this Richard Mille watch is pretty darn cool.

Each of the 30 limited edition Richard Mille RM 011 Ti Brown watches will retail for $95,000.

Mido Multifort PVD Special Edition Chronograph Watch

by Ariel Adams (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Timepieces / Watches

How special is the Mido Multifort PVD Special Edition Chronograph? Pretty special. It looks really cool for the price. I've been a fan of the "new" Multifort (dumb name for about 50 years or more now) watch (in both three-hand and chronograph models), but this black with orange marker and hands edition is pretty cool. The orange is mostly all lume, and the design of the hour markers is very attractive. The watch has a satisfying combination of sportiness, utility, and cool avant garde style. At a price under $2,000 for a Swiss watch - that isn't too bad!

The case is 44mm wide in a PVD black coated steel case with a sapphire crystal (double AR coated). Water resistance is 100 meters and it comes on a comfy rubber strap. You can also get the watch is a more simple non-black, non orange version (but it wouldn't be as "Special"). The dial also features the look of Geneva stripes (cote de Geneve) that is a decoration usually reserved for movements. Speaking of which, the Mide Multifort Chronograph has a Swiss ETA Valjoux 7750 automatic chronograph movement - pretty straight forward. Pretty cool and worth a look with a price of about $1,700 - $1,850.

Bertolucci Bella Costa Chronograph Watch

by Ariel Adams (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Timepieces / Watches

This new watch is a weird dive-style watch, but I still like it. Not sure why. I consider it more artistic that anything else. An playful designer homage to the diver - with interesting luxury watch elements applied. Almost all Bertolucci watches I see describe themselves as being "Mediterranean inspired." They use this term so often I am not necessarily sure what it means anymore. The most interesting part of the 41mm wide steel case is the asymmetric bezel and inner flange. They compliment each other so that the watch dial itself is perfectly centered, but they are purely artistic - likely making the bezel non-rotatable. Also, the case is water resistant to 50 meters only, so this is certainly only a "dive-style" watch. The pieces comes in an orange and textured white dial, as well as a black version with diamonds. Interesting how the black version with diamonds actually looks more feminine than the orange version.

An interesting design feature is the "peninsula" where the date window is located that is in steel with Cotes de Geneve striped polished applied. One area that Bertolucci did very well is with all of the lovely lines on the case. Like it or not, you can't deny that Bertolucci designers know elegance - even if it is weird sometimes. Check out the curves on the lugs, the rounded crown and pushers, and the graceful shape of the watch hands. Inside the watch is a Swiss ETA quartz G10.711 chronograph movement. Strap is silicone and grooved for style. The Bella Costa watches aren't bad if you like the avant garde looks and the upbeat character of the designs. Serious sport or diver watches they are not though. Hopefully the quartz movement, steel case, and silicone strap mean that the Bella Costa watch (at least the non diamond version) won't be too expensive.

Richard Mille RM 011 DLC Titanium Orange Limited Edition Watch For America

by Ariel Adams (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Timepieces / Watches

Richard Mille sometimes offers special limited edition watches that are available only in North American markets. This is in addition to their other standard world-wide available limited edition watches. Given the complexity and expense of creating too many new models, Richard Mille breathes maximum life out of their impressive luxury watch models by adding color variations in limited quantities. This time the RM 011 watch is given a black DLC coated titanium case with orange trim in the dial and a rubber ring around the crown. The RM 011 watch in its iconic Richard Mille tonneau case has a skeletonized movement with the time, 12 hour chronograph, 60 minute countdown timer, and annual calendar with month and date. The watch is 40mm wide and 50mm tall.

The RM 011 DLC Titanium Orange will be limited to just 30 pieces. It is cool, but is it cool enough? No doubt Richard Mille will find 30 buyers, but just a few months ago they released an almost identical watch but with white instead of orange trim with the Richard Mille Ti Americas White Limited Edition watch. If you are interested in the piece, don't just get it because it is a limited edition - but rather because you like the colors more than other RM 011 watch. Price is $90,000.

Swarovski Octea Sport Orange Watch

by Ariel Adams (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Timepieces / Watches

My favorite Swarovski watch is back for 2010 and even sportier. I discussed the Octea watches here last year and was pleasantly impressed with the design. It was an interesting combo between women's sport watches, and popular glass crystal maker. I commented that if they made a men's version, I would probably wear it. As such, I think almost any woman interested in a sporty (and relatively affordable) watch would dig one of these. The case is in steel, 39mm wide, and has a series of crystals placed in it. Who'd a thought you'd ever see a rotating diver's bezel with Swarovski crystals in it?

For 2010 the watch gets an orange redo. Mostly the same from last year, but now primed for even more action. I like how they kept the swan logo at the 12 o'clock indicator - but now it is in orange. It it wasn't for all the faceted stones, I would say the watch more or less is a men's design - but that is very trendy for women these days. Movement is a Swiss quartz, and it comes with a rubber strap or a metal bracelet. Both of these have inset faceted hematite stones that really give it a cool look. There is another swan logo placed in the crown as a cabochon. Really a cool women's watch collection from Swarovski. Plus, the Octea Sport watches are all about $800 - $900 in price.

Filed under: Handbags

The Botkier Noa Tote brings a warm ray of coral light into this spring's mostly-neutral palette.

Available in Black or Coral (shown, and preferred), this tote has everything: shape, detail, functionality and style. The soft, buttery, gleaming lambskin is well-complemented by the antiqued nickel hardware, giving the bag a timeless feel. The angled zippers add grace to the shape.

This bag is 13"H x 18"W x 3"D; large enough to be your work bag, but fabulous enough to be your weekend bag. The angles and zipper tassels lend just a hint of cowgirl to the overall appearance, so you can pair it with your cowboy boots as easily as your work Choos.

The Botkier Noa Tote is available from Neiman Marcus for $575.00.

BCBGMAXAZRIA Femme Fatale Leather Satchel, Handbag of the Day

by Annie Scott (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

The BCBGMAXAZRIA Femme Fatale Leather Satchel is an attractive bag, whether you like orange or not. And I don't.

Still, I can't deny the allure of this shape, which appears as though it's just barely contained by its wraparound band. The pleats may look clumsy bu they're actually just relaxed; this is soft, buttery leather. We love the signature hardware details and secure zip-top with double handles.

The lining may be cotton, the size may be a bit large at13½"W X 11"H X 5"D, and most importantly: the color may be orange,but this is a perfectly respectable and relatively inexpensive bag that would add endless kick to your sharpest grey work ensemble or blue jeans at brunch.

The BCBGMAXAZRIA Femme Fatale Leather Satchel is available from Saks Fifth Avenue for just $398.00.

Marc by Marc Jacobs Puckered Mouse Embossed Hobo, Handbag of the Day

by Annie Scott (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

The Marc by Marc Jacobs Puckered Mouse Embossed Hobo comes in just one color, this brilliant and totally unexpected "Poppy."

The "buttery soft" orange leather of this generous 17"W X 14"H X 4"D bag is embossed with the Marc Jacobs logo, and gently gathers at the top to create a classic shape. The closure you see is a pushlock, and unlocking the flap reveals a bright pink, blue, and purple floral patterned cotton lining, as well as two interior pockets.

The bold color of the purse makes it immediately decadent, while its simple shape and modest closure keep it subtle. This "Poppy" color is extremely versatile -- it would be excellently paired with white, black, or blue.

The Marc by Marc Jacobs Puckered Mouse Embossed Hobo is available from Saks Fifth Avenue for $558.

Don't let your carry-on bag get lost in a sea of black luggage.

Filed under: Spirits

Combier Liqueur d'Orange, the clear and all-natural orange liqueur initially created in 1834, has finally made it to the States. Combier's artisinal crafted orange liqueur is made from fresh orange peels from the West Indies, sugar beets from the fields of Normandy and the family's secret ingredients from the Loire Valley. Combier uses a triple-distillation process distilling the ingredients in the same century-old copper stills first used by the Combier family itself. The liqueur sells for around $40.

Luella Sheepskin Fury Boxy Bag, Handbag of the Day

by Nicole Weston (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Handbags

While the bags of fall were large, to say the least, we're pleased to note that some of the handbags we're seeing for winter are smaller and more feminine. When it comes to the Luella Sheepskin Fury Boxy Bag, we have a bag that is not only cute and girly, but with a remarkably cute name, as well. It is only 8"x11"x6" and is made of quilted orange suede, with contrasting white topstitching. The bag is trimmed with a chocolate leather and edged with ultra-soft sheepskin, which also lines the interior of the purse. The chain-link shoulder strap has a leather section at the top to make it comfortable to wear, but the chain itself actually adds a little bit of an edge to the bag, keeping it from looking overly adorable or clunky. Price: $995.
