Covet: October Vogue
I just love finding new places to wear diamonds
You can barely see it, but I love the platinum and diamond lorgnette. Isn’t it just so much chic-er than bifocals? A mere $9,100. Positively cheap compared to the fabulous Art Deco bracelet, also pictured, which is $145,000. Or the price of a smallish house in one of the square states. I know what I’d pick.
And the embellished cigarette case is almost enough to make me wish that smoking was one of my many bad habits. Maybe I could use it for business cards instead? Unfortunately, it’s “price upon request”, which we all know is code for “forget it unless you’re a millionaire”.
I hate to admit it, and it’s eight different kinds of wrong, but I covet these jackets. Especially the pom pom one on the right. Left: Peter Som Mongolian lamb coat, $2,375; right, Giorgio Armanu flame rabbit hand-made pom pom chubby ($8,975). Why aren’t there vegan versions? Stella McCartney, I hope you’re listening!

You could almost buy a working Batmobile for the price of that bracelet!
I have to admit that I like the skirt that the pom-pom girl is wearing. The lorgnette would work well as a pendant for a necklace……how would that do???

The skirt is velvet and a mere $1,525. I think the lorgnette would definitely work as a pendant. If I were rich, I’d bring the lorgnette back!!
Mike – can you really get a working Batmobile?!
