From The Great State Alaska

Paula, Rosalind (my friend from Sausalito) and I spent one day in Soho, Nolita & the Lower East Side, and picked up a few great pieces, including Moschino, Issey Miyake, Dries Van Noten & some new pieces from Foley & Corrina. We met Andrea Ruff on Prince Street, where she was selling fabulous soft leather bags that she makes in her flat in Brooklyn. We couldn’t decide between black or red, but ended up ordering twin black slouch bags! Andrea works as a fashion stylist and sells her bags to clients including Molly Sims and Joy Bryant. Ours should arrive in a week or so.
