Earlier this year, we teamed up with PurseBlog and their wonderful readers (affectionately known as tPFers) to collaborate on a Limited Edition design. The readers and Purse Forum members voted on leather options, hardware, and extra special details. The bag has finally arrived-available exclusively at Saks Fifth Avenue’s Flagship Store and via Saks.com!
We’re kicking off our Fall 2010 by introducing a highly anticipated Fall frontrunner: the Ava collection! A unique shape with plenty of special details to match, the Ava kicks off our sexy Fall 2010 collection. Shop the Ava Hobo and Ava Crossbody now!
The recently opened Kenmare is getting a lot of hype, and as we’re always interested in the latest downtown spots, we sent our very own Scott Sussman to review the new haunt – his first impressions below.
Helmed by chef Joey Campanaro and nightlife entrepreneur Paul Sevigny, I’ve been hearing a lot of buzz about Kenmare. As it’s in the same neighborhood as our offices and our retail store, I pass it all the time. Though reservations are hard to come by, I managed to pencil one in for an after-work dinner. The restaurant’s decor is a bit classic, as if from a bygone era and was filling up with a lively downtown crowd.
Though we were intrigued by some of the more unique items on the menu, namely the Broccoli Beer Soup and Sautéed Sardine Fillets, no one at my dining table ordered either – maybe next time! I started off with the Tuna Carpaccio (loved it, very fresh) and then had the Grilled Swordfish which I cleaned my plate for. My dining companion had the Meatball sliders and then the New York Strip Steak – both quite good. The service was excellent – Our waiter was very knowledgeable and kept our water glasses filled. I’ll definitely visit Kenmare again – there’s more on the menu I’m curious to try…
