A bunch of new items have been added to the sale section of SaksFifthAvenue.com. Plus, a small link at the top of the homepage lets you know that you can get free shipping on any order with the code SFASHIP4 through November 16.
Clearly, now is the time to search for that holiday dress. And we think we’ve found it.
This Diane von Furstenberg Ellen Marie Sparkle Dress is to die for in a wool blend that offers more structure than her jersey knits. It’s currently on sale for $195, down from $325.

Gwyneth Paltrow is lending her name to support Saks Fifth Avenue’s 2008 Key for a Cure campaign. The actress models a T-shirt designed by Karl Lagerfeld, which features a sketch of the man himself, in advertising for the charity. The T-shirt will retail for $40 (at least $35 going to charity) to support the cancer awareness initiative, which has previously been backed by Hilary Swank, Charlize Theron, and Renee Zellweger. The T-shirts will hit the Saks website in October.

There isn’t a more iconic pair of shoes in American history than Dorothy’s ruby slippers from “The Wizard of Oz.”
And now, the most iconic shoe designers from around the world are going to show us their spin on the ultimate sparkly pumps.
For the 70th anniversary of “The Wizard of Oz” Warner Bros. and Swarovski have selected 19 designers to create their interpretations of Dorothy’s slippers to commemorate the event.

A film tax credit has lured film projects and shoppers alike to Boston, it seems.
Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway, seen left, have been photographed all over the city filming their upcoming “Bride Wars” and actress Jayma Mays has hit town for “Paul Blart: Mall Cop.”
Mays and her co-workers have splurged at Marc Jacobs, Envi, Calypso and Gretta Luxe all in Boston, and the movie’s costume designer, Ellen Lutter, spent more than $100,000 locally.

When we were perusing the new spring/summer Gucci arrivals at Saks Fifth Avenue, we really liked this Gucci Joy Boston bag in the thumbnail and so clicked on it. But when we got up close, we weren’t so sure. Is the floral embroidery that looks more like applique in some parts, too much or just enough? Or does the basic black and white palette make up for it? If you had the $1,950 lying around, would you buy this bag, yay or nay?

New Fendi arrivals are now online at Saks Fifth Avenue and we’ve chosen a couple that stand out from the pack for very different reasons. The Fendi Multicolor Spy Bag, $1,280, on the left will at once compliment and help tone down spring’s vividly colored dresses. The dark chocolate, milk chocolate and caramel lamb leathers will pick up the brights without competing. The woven handle and contrast piping add a little something extra to this spy bag. If you’re planning to stick to more of a neutral palette and prefer something a bit more classic, this Chef Leather Frame Bag, $1,360, is probably more up your alley. We see this in Palm Beach while the multicolored spy is in Miami, if you know what we mean.
If you like that, discover all things Fendi at TheBagLady.tv.

Yay or Nay

So, I like the cape trend, but I don’t know about this Kooba leather cape on sale at Saks Fifth Avenue for $486–down from $695. I think it just looks weird–all the zippers and stitching details confuse me. It kind of looks like they un-stitched the arms of a really nice leather jacket to make a cape. I don’t know–what do you think?

The Washington Post is of the mind that the scarves on Balenciaga‘s fall runways are going to change the way we look at and wear the accessories this winter. While the look on the left is perhaps an accurate portrayal of what East Coasters end up looking like in the winter, we’re thinking that without the uber-tailored look, 6-foot frame, and designer styling (and with snot frozen to your face) it’s not going to look so fashionable and suggest trying to emulate the look on the right. For the details on the wrappers we’ve chosen, keep reading.

Last night a few stars came out in Beverly Hills for the opening of the Elie Tahari boutique in Saks Fifth Avenue – Kristen Bell, Marcia Cross, and Stacy Keibler all walked the red carpet. We think we might have actually preferred Kristen Bell in something a little more fun and flirty, a cute dress perhaps? The high-necked, long top seemed to overwhelm her small frame. Stacy Keibler seemed a bit overly demure and covered-up as well – is there a fall chill in sunny California or what? Marcia Cross, however, was spot on in a sparkly, dressy number. Continue reading for some looks similar to those worn at the event.
