Ooh La Love: Designer Ish

Posted Wednesday, September 27, 2006 at 03:41PM

While we’re far from pimping and picking only the latest designer duds, oft enough big names are big for good reason: solid quality, detailed design, making and breaking trends -

And drowning in logos means your drowning in cash.

Or credit card debt.

Though I hope you’re only rocking that Hermes Watches H-our watch ‘cause it fits your budget, Ms. Nam Kim. “Don’t really know why I love it so much, but I do.”

I’ll tell you why I dig these Gucci Veruska boots: stamped with Gucci’s logo, generously trimmed with rabbit fur, they’re a touch obnoxious and help me keep courting PETA love.

Though I don’t just love the animals, I adore plants as well: check this Juicy Couture straw hat wtih pom poms. Sunny chic, if I ever got near a beach you’d find me in that. “Keep the sun out of your face, hide your beach hair” with it, advises swimwear designer Stephanie Hoos.

Summer sun or not, rock your SPF every day, ladies. Ms. Hoo digs Chanel Precision Hydramax + Tinted Moisture Boost Lotion SPF 15: “The most important thing you’ll need at the beach. I never go in the sun without a little of this stuff.”

Chanel makes another daily beauty accessory pour moi: navy liquid eyeliner. “Dark but not as heavy as black. Pops the eye,” say beauticians the Glitz Girls.

Chanel’s the model for designer goods that are good.  The house behind the first bottle of designer perfume, Coco also invented wardrobe staple the Little Black Dress.

Which Diane von Furstenberg stepped up with the wrap dress. “Every lady must have one - her signature wrap dresses silhouette a woman’s body to perfection,” says Ninaki Priddy.

A lesser known neo classic by DvF? Check this “Power” Ring. “The name says it all,” says jewelry designer Cheena Chandra. “A bold ring is always a show stopper and this one demands respect and attention.”

As does this elegant Louis Vuitton “Epi Passy” handbag, whereas the typical logo’ed out Louis gets a yawn and usually a “Do you think it’s real?”

And the designer bags of all designer bags? Hermes Birkin bag, of course. “I am all about timeless form and function,” says designer  Joyce de Brevannes.”This is the epitome!”

Though I’m not sure how faithful to function a four-inch heel ever is, these Dior “Country” pumps are also neo classics. Says Billion Dollar Babes co-founder Kate Nobelius, “The new Christian Dior white leather pumps - love the sky high horn finish heel.”

Sky-high glammy dead animal is more my thing. Completely classic luxe, these Manolo Blahnik alligator boots cost $14,000, which “to the mind of the humble Shoeblogger” the Manolo, “the costliness it is perfectly justified.”
