I still can’t believe I paid $2.29 for a pair of Max Mara black wool slacks size 4. In 1951 Achille Maramotti decided to dedicate himself to haute couture. The very first collection, a camel coat and a geranium red suit, incorporated the ideals of future production: essential and precise, clean cuts and decisive lines. French inspired designs, but reinvented through the lens of tradional Italian style. While I was holding on to these slacks my eyes catch the “glimmer” of this Michael Kors faux onyx gemstones sewn onto the collar

blouse. Kors was born Karl Anderson Jr in New York. In 1981 Kors launched the Michael Kors womenswear line at Bloomingdales, Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus and Saks. Building on his success, Kors was named the first ever women’s ready to wear designer and creative director for the French fashion house Celine in 1997. In 2003 he left Celine to focus on his own brand, Kors had the year earlier launched his menswear line. For $7.29 I had a complete gorgeous outfit, ready to go from office to dinning at a 5 star restaurant from zero to 60 mph. I love when things just come together without a fuss, don’t you?
