For fall, Henri Bendel Creative Director Pina Ferlisi had a “luxury nomad” in mind for the fall 2015, and although we’ve always known that the Bendel girl loves to travel, now it has become even more of a glamorous, and multi-functioning endeavor thanks to new prints, fabrications, and silhouettes meant for the gal on the go.

New inclusions include a messenger bag into the Uptown Collection, and the addition of the Bedford Collection (my favorite!) featuring a slouchy tote and ultra soft and supple, yet reliable bucket bag. See the slide show above for some of my favorites along with pricing and availability information, and don’t miss a sneak peek at the unbelievable jewelry, gloves, sunglasses, and small leather goods.

The It Accessory: Perf-ection; The Best of Perforated Accessories

by Julia DiNardo

Perforation has been sitting on the sidelines, waiting patiently for its moment to shine in the spotlight again, and the time has come for it to be called back into action. It’s slowly been popping up in accessories collections and garments, looking quite sophisticated on a leather bomber jacket, and equally as cool on a pair of peep toe booties. As much as I love the hard leather look, softened by the perforated punches, there’s just something about it in suede that sends me into full-on swoon mode. Are you as taken by the perforated look as I am? If so, check out some of my favorite accessory picks above, with links to purchase them below.

Back to Black

I just got back from a long weekend in the Bahamas with my mom, and feel warm all over; partially because I had a really nice time, but mainly because I’m a bit burnt. It wasn’t the SPF 50’s fault that I slathered myself in, but rather user error in missing small patches of skin and occasionally being lazy about reapplying. Shame on me!

Nonetheless, it was so nice to stop shivering in NYC for a few days, and head somewhere with weather I can certainly appreciate it March! Besides vacation, I was there to visit my good friend Anna, and if you’re in Nassau and in need of any sort of an expert hair service from cut and color to styling, keep in mind her beautiful, boutique salon, Studio Vivo.

Now that I’m back in NYC, it’s time to stash away those tropical hues and sleeveless dresses, heading back to my winter wardrobe of predominantly black for me, at least for a while longer. Wearing black in the weather is a New Yorker’s uniform, perfect for combating and concealing the sludge, ice, snow, and anything else relatively icky with staining potential that you may encounter on the streets or in the subway. I certainly do love my sartorial life in NYC, but like Anna, I could also get used to dressing for the warm weather, year ’round!

It’s no secret that I LOVE accessories (if you haven’t seen it yet, check out the Fashion Pulse Daily accessories Tumblr site!), so getting a look ahead of time at the Henri Bendel Spring 2014 collection was absolutely thrilling. From shiny metals to soft pastels, buttery leather to glistening crystals, Henri Bendel’s brand of bags, timepieces, small leather goods, electronic cases, and jewelry hits all of the right style notes for spring.

See the slideshow above for the pics that I took of my favorite items, sure to make their way into my closet once they hit the shelves in the spring. Not in New York City? No problem! You can always shop at HenriBendel.com, 24 hours a day, and in the meanwhile, don’t forget to check out the Holiday Shop (I have my eye on Carlyle Caviar Tote!]
