HELLO CHANEL-O!







We adore a little Chanel . . . I mean, obvs. and so, we've put up some little Chanels. These mini bags are made in sherbert-for-summer colors, fashioned in signature quilted suede, and sport those roCOCO golden chain straps and tassles. I mean, a girl only needs enough room in her bag for a lipstick and a $20--just in case her date gets fresh.
*Chanel red quilted suede bag. Priced at $400.
**Chanel fuschia quilted suede bag. Priced at $500.
***Chanel iced blue quilted suede bag. priced at $500.
****Chanel teal quilted suede bag. Priced at $450.

SISTER CHRISTIAN!




'Tis the season, ladies . . . tis the season for the shortest, tightest, give-those-Robert-Palmer-instrument-miming-video-girls-a-run-for-their-money little black dresses. Its hot in the city and its time to break out that barely breathable bondage 80s Leger mini. so, when these little Loubs came in, we knew we just had to post them. These babies are the living end of rock chic and can (and should) be paired with all things itsy-bitsy. They'll rough up a little floral printed fluffy sundress and rock out an LBD. trust us. you can't go wrong with Louboutin.
*Christian Louboutin black suede and leather platform stiletto booties with silver metal studs. In next-to-new condition and priced at $570.

BACK FROM NYC--NO WORSE FOR THE WEAR!

Well, you came, you saw, you conquered. We've just arrived back from our pop-up shop in NYC in need of some deep-tissue massage and a frankly, a cocktail. Or two. Seriously though, it was so great to see you, our beloved East Coast chums, as you rushed the racks to get your mitts on Rodarte, Giambattista, Chanel and the chance to spy THE OSCAR DRESS Alek gave Carrie on Sex and The City. We wined with you, we dined with you, we helped you find the perfect Balenciaga Moto Bag and try on a Lanvin Heel. Or two.


For our gals who couldn't be with us during our jaunt through the Big Apple, here's some coverage on the D2 Takes Manhattan whirlwind tour.

FENDI STRIPED B BAG

We don't know why we've been on such an accessorize-yourself kick as of late. I guess because as we head full force into summer, with our barely there sundresses and itsy-bitsy-teeny-weeny-yellow-polka-dot bikini's, the way to set an outfit apart from the other wisps of clothing on the boardwalk is to have the perfect accessory--the perfect say stilleto or jewel or in the case of this post Fendi B Bag helps a girl strike the perfect note as she's wandering around the Standard Downtown rooftop pool in search of a cocktail and some sun. In the case of this bag, it's large enough to hold all of your summer-fun essentials (sunblock, lipgloss, pomeranian), it's lightweight striped canvas just screams Hot-In-The City, and nothing's hotter than white leather in the heat. White light, white heat. We know catch the drift . . .

*Fendi Striped B Bag. Priced at $1200. For further information or to purchase, please contact: lizzy@decadestwo.com

FUR REAL!

There are certain items that a gal simply must have in her wardrobe, no matter what her style shape or size. Items which are classic and fold into any style direction--we're talking essential pieces such as a great belted trench or a crisp white button down. As far as handbags go, the Chanel 2.55 is the handbag of choice. It goes with any outfit on practically any occasion. Of course, in version of classic and essential, the 2.55 is crafted in cherry red chinchilla, but hey, that's just our version of essential!

*Chanel red chinchilla 2.55 bag with golden metal chain and detailing. Priced at $4500. For further information or to purchase, please contact: lizzy@decadestwo.com

THIS JUST IN!


As you ladies know by now, we packed up shop and have headed East to take Manhattan by storm. Due to an overwhelming deamnd (before we've even opened up our little pop-up shop!), we've extended our public shopping days to Saturday, May 16th and Sunday, May 17th from 11am to 9pm! That's right: YOUR SHOPPING WISH IS OUR COMMAND! Though we'll be remerchandising the racks with new goodies daily, we recommend coming early for the best selection. See you gals bright and early!

A HORSE OF A DIFFERENT COLOR!



We adore a cocktail . . . a pink flamingo, a tankini, a manhattan . . . I mean nothing beats knocking off a long day with your gals at some uber-chic-semi-euro-dark bar at 6 pm to to relive the day's trials and tribulations. So, in honor of our favorite past time, we've decided to post the best beverage accessory: the cocktail ring. Cocktail rings or Right Hand rings, large rings often inlaid and set with precious and semi precious stones, came into fashion in the 40s and 50s. Nothing but nothing looks better situated next to a thin stemmed martini glass. Except maybe Johnny Depp . . .
*Kenneth Jay Lane Horse Cocktail Ring. New without tags. Priced at $200.

DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT: Nancy Gonzalez







In our current economic climate, we find that our clients are still concerned with luxury. Perhaps now even more so. Rather than spend their hard-earned dollars on some cheap-and-trendy-trick-of-the-moment, our girls want to know they are purchasing goods whose style will last, pieces that are fabricated with the most elegant materials and craftsmanship.


We can't help but think that Nancy Gonzalez handbags are synonymous with luxury. Fabricated with the most decadent skins, the handbags are also known for their serious workmanship. The Gonzalez design team was flown to Columbia to train in dying techniques and working with luxury skins. The result: handbags which are exquisitely and impeccably fashioned. perhaps that's why these handbags were on the top of Pat Field's list for accessorizing the Sex and the City girls in last year's tour de force film. They've certainly topped our list of must have items for summer.
*Nancy Gonzalez tan crocodile handbag. Priced at $1800.
**Nancy Gonzalez woven crocodile over canvas tote handbag. Priced at $1200.
***Nancy Gonzalez pink crocodile doctor bag. Priced at $1750.
