Introducing Perfecto TM bags

The only bag she’ll ever need....

Our new signature bag- Part chic handbag, part travel tote, the versatile Perfecto bag by NKHenry is an ideal choice for everyday use. Made of lightweight, water-resistant twill, the bags features a double snap magnetic snap closure for quick access, two interior pockets and a back exterior zipper, plus we added our signature leather logo on the front.

Our first installment of these bags are available in classic popular colors, like Chocolate and Scarlet(red), with more color combinations to come each season. The bags are a more affordable alternative to the Le Pliage totes, yet keep that classic yet chic feel. The bags are deep and open wide to fit all of your daily or travel essentials... But it has a modern, slouchy silhouette, which makes it Perfecto.

The bags come in 3 sizes:

Large – 21.5 W x 18.5 H

‘Just Right’ – 16.5 W x 14 H

Mini – 13 W x 10 H (to debut for Holiday 2009)

The bags will officially be offered at select retailers and www.nkhenry.com starting Sept. 26^th. The pre-order sale will start from Labor Day through Sept. 24^th, where customers will be rewarded with free shipping and a free gift for their early purchase.

Party On: Your Guide to Fashion Week’s Top Bashes - (the cut)

Fashion Week is fast approaching. We can tell by the insane influx of invites — not to shows, but to parties. If you thought the economy was lessening the amount of free Champagne and nights out, you'd be wrong. Aside from the all-hands-on-deck fiesta that is Fashion's Night Out, and the usual suspects of Marc Jacobs, Narciso Rodriguez, and the Erin Wasson fêtes, there's a whole calendar of parties awaiting the lucky few who are invited. And if you haven't scored a golden ticket, you can view the photos online here the next day. Check out the week's top events.

Whitney Port to Show Her Whitney Eve Line in the Tents at Fashion Week

from the cut1Comments

Isn't it funny how last season Whitney Port was a lowly glorified intern at Diane Von Furstenberg, "working" backstage at Fashion Week, but this season she's staging her very own fashion show in the tents? Reality-TV stars — they grow up so fast. On September 10 at 2 p.m., she'll show her Whitney Eve collection back-to-back with Nicholas K and Mara Hoffman, who are all represented by public-relations firm People's Revolution, which is the subject of forthcoming Bravo reality show Kell on Earth and also Whitney's "employer" on The City. It's like a love triangle — nay, orgy — of realness! However, Whitney's fashion show probably won't be on The City, since those shows are about Whitney's real, non-famous life. With any luck, it will be on Kell on Earth, though Whitney's ironclad MTV contract may prevent her from appearing on Bravo, the greatest television network in history. So what this boils down to is that Whitney is "interning" for herself and employing her co-workers, while Kelly is working for her "intern." We're staring blankly at the air and trying to figure out what this all means (somewhere, Olivia Palermo is staring daggers at us). The bright lights and long nights and hirsute men of The City return to the airwaves on September 29.

Play plans, and I'll give you a dollar, really.

So I wish there were 50 Candy's because I usually have to be at or doing 50 things at once... but I can't lie... it is a beautiful life... this weekend was grand... found myself in Williamsburg both Friday and Saturday nights... we went for Jenny's birthday on Saturday... had a smashing time... and then was on-set all day Sunday and today with a really cool gang of artists... and then I need to polish off some article's for Cliche tonight... and such... how were your weekends?
