In a follow up story to the Guggenheim and the "real" limited editions out there - I want to tell you about a new handbag designed by Isaac Mizrahi for the NY TIMES. What a great idea and wonderfully unique offering this holiday season. The global obsession with luxury gave us all a reality smack-down in the last few months and it is great to see Isaac design this SMART and CHIC accessory for the literate woman in your life. They are truly limited to only 600 units! Each bag comes with a certificate of your numbered piece. Also a cotton dust cover and gift box with a NY TIMES embossed logo. At a time when everything is mass produced - even some of the so called luxury items - it is great to find a bag that you won't see coming and going when you hit the town.
The bag has classic lines - think Hermes tote or Chanel medallion bag - even featuring a big NY TIMES golden logo pull tab. Women will be doing a double take to see what brand that is? They won't know, they'll be embarrassed to ask, the stores will get calls, it will be hysterical. Be the first and only one in your circle to get one before they are gone. The bag is made from very durable twill fabric / patent leather / and laminated fabric lining - making sure it will hold up for years to come.
Mr. M is a true NY'er. He has had ups and downs and always lands on his feet and keeps on going - just like the best of the big apple!
