All that glitters is not gold...but that doesn't mean it's not a jewel, or the Kaliedo Gem-Embellished Tote by Valentino, MSRP $2,995.

FTL: James Piatt "Pursuader" & "PeaceKeeper" Handbag [FASHION]

For The Ladies...but the ones with attitude. James Piatt is an American designer best known for his controversial handbag designs. The bags are pretty vicious (wait for it...), and I'd say the feminine equivalent to Samuel L. Jackson's wallet in Pulp Fiction. Retail is $579 and $85 respectively.

FTL: Dominic Jones - Black Leather Gloves w/ White Gold Nails [FASHION]

I'm not sure if it's because I've been conditioned to this kind of thing by some of my homegirls, but I am digging this right here! It could also be because of the cleavage...nonetheless, these gloves are ill. Check the look-book here, shot Matt Irwin.

FTL: Valentino Rose Leather Tote [FASHION]

A compliment would be warranted if I seen a girl with this joint.

This Valentino creation is barely recognizable as a handbag at first glance, depending on what you're wearing it might just come off as a ruffled accent on your outfit. Ruffles abound in supple nappa lambskin in a solid shade of slate gray. Leather swims in loose swirls around a large spiral rose in the center, plus woven detail secures the double handles and the interior is lined in pretty black silk. Snap closure and one interior zip pocket round out the basics on this Rose Leather Tote that sells for $2,395.

Jen, Cherry...please forward your sizes!

FTL: Rihanna Please Don't Hurt 'Em!

Another For The Ladies Post (though I never tire from looking at Rihanna), this one is lifted this from my homegirl Sham, becauseI figured my lady friends would truly appreciate it. Rihanna did her thing at the Superbowl Pepsi Smash concert in Tampa, and hit them with some boots that are, in my opinion, a harmonious mixture of frightening and fashionable! I know couple of girls who would kill these!

FTL: Marilyn Monroe…wait, Scarlett Johansson?

D&G will be releasing a line of cosmetics this March...yadda yadda yadda...Scarlett is fine!

“We wanted to create makeup with a scent. Domenico and I remember when we were children and opened our mother’s handbags — the scent of her lipstick trailed out. I observed that when women open makeup, they smell it first.” Stefano Gabbana.

FTL: La Perla's Luxe Lingerie for Valentine's Day

It would be a Happy Valentine's Day indeed!

"The La Perla woman makes the effort, but makes things look effortless. For Valentine's Day she wants to look her best and makes sure she takes care of her man. On Valentine's Day, she reserves a suite at the Greenwich Hotel, complete with a view of the New York harbor and a cozy fireplace. She buys several sets of La Perla lingerie, and takes her time to prepare so everything is just so. She then awaits for her man's arrival and presents the ultimate Valentine's gift - herself."

FTL - Wolford Medallion Tights

For The Ladies...These tights are actually pretty tight! I had conversation with some ladies about the stocking/leggings/tights/hosiery crazy nowadays and learned that the look really only works on some females...can't be too tall, can't be too short. So for the ladies trying to stay fashionable consult with your girls before you end up looking awkward...or "scandalous".

These particular tights actually have a "transparent knitting technique" which allows the appearance of the opaque design to seem as though your legs are so sexy they just never want to come off or fall down. A really good look.

Available at Wolford Boutique of London for any takers.

FTL - Maison Martin Margiela Cut-Out Knee-High Boot

Time for another For The Ladies post. I love a girl with a mean shoe game, so when I saw these I immediately knew I had to throw it up on the blog. I’d have to personally walk up to any female wearing these bad boys and congratulate them on an excellent purchase!

Also available in white, and black you can pick a pair or three via eLuxury if you’re so compelled.

Props to Ferris!

Sex And The City DVD Release...and Sequel News?

This is some interesting news some ladies would like. Yeah, I went out and watched this film with my girl opening night. Had to get tickets in advance and everything! But before you go too far in your criticisms, I was a birthday movie date for her, and...the film was pretty good...pause.

However, in news that may or may not also give you pause, the part 2 of film has been confirmed, and is in the works according director/writer/producer Michael Patrick King. A reason to get dressed up and hit the movie theatre again!

DVD available this Tuesday.

"Michael Patrick King thought there would be sequels to "Sex and the City: the Movie."

Thursday night at the Public Library party for the DVD of the film, he and Sarah Jessica Parker confirmed it. He's off to write the next installment. Both SJP and Kim Cattrall told me they're excited to see what he comes up with.

At the same time, Candace Bushnell announced that she's writing a "prequel" to the ladies' lives, taking them maybe from teen through college years to the time they all met.

King told me, quipping, "I'm thinking of doing an animated version of them as babies."

SJP added, "Let's wring everything we can out of this thing!"

It didn't hurt that she was dressed and styled like a modern Audrey Hepburn, and that she worked the pink carpet full of media outside the Library like a pro. There just is not a more gracious movie or TV star around."

FTL - Christian Louboutin Layered Leather Hobo

I've wanted to pick up speed on something For The Ladies or FTL as will be known as moving forward...And this piece right here definitely something for the ladies. Mr. Louboutin, face for his red bottoms, is now causing a tizzy with his red lined hand bag for the fall. A mean shoe game must be paired with with an bad ass bag, and this is a bad ass! The armadillo inspired bag is available at Saks for $1,995. Start checking the couch crevices.
