Dooney & Bourke Alto Handbags

The Dooney & Bourke label was launched in South Norwalk, Connecticut in 1975 by Peter Dooney and Frederic Bourke. Their first products were braces, sometimes called suspenders, and belts made with surcingle leather. The braces and belts were made available in many colors and patterns which made them an instant hit at department stores.

In 1981, the Dooney & Bourke company expanded their product line with fine-leather handbags. Two years later, in 1983, Dooney & Bourke introduced All-Weather Leather (AWL), which was 100% waterproof cowhide and this became the standard for all their leather purses. The waterproofing of a leather purse along with the minimal care that went with it, made Dooney & Bourke purses the most popular designer handbag produced in the United States.

Today, Dooney & Bourke handbags are available in more than a dozen different designer lines and their most popular are the leather Alto handbags. Made from all-natural Vachetta leather and with the benefits of AWL, Dooney & Bourke Alto handbags are as practical as they are beautiful.

The Dooney & Bourke Alto zip around computer case allows you to carry your laptop and documents everywhere with you when you are on the go. It comes with two outside pockets, an outside and inside zip pocket, and an adjustable, detachable strap. Along with a zip closure for all of your belongings, it has feet for standing and inside lining for added protection.

My favorite is the East / West top zip Alto bag. It has one outside pocket, an inside zip pocket and business card slot featured in a lined interior. The drop length of the strap is 8" and the bag measures 12.75 x 2.75 x 5.25" and comes in purple; it is so adorable.

Michael Kors bedding

Having a comfortable bed to sleep in is essential, especially for those of us whose only solace from the hectic schedules of daily life at home and at work is the few hours that we spend sleeping at night in the comforts of our own bed.

 

---

To improve the quality of our sleeping space, most of us add fluffy comforters or quilts along with the bed sheets but not many realize the fabric of the bedding has a lot to do with the quality of sleep that we can get as well.

If you have ever bought bedding linen in the past couple of decades, you might have a rather difficult time finding the perfect, especially if you have mattresses that are thicker than usual. These days, though, most high-quality bedding linens can easily fit over any size or thickness of mattress without requiring you to make complicated adjustments to the fabric. For quality bed linen that offers great fabric and the ability to fit just about any mattress you have, Michael Kors bedding should be your first choice to look at.

When you look at a collection from Michael Kors bedding, you will instantly recognize the linens as being sleek, sophisticated, and polished in their design. This trademark has followed Kors throughout his career and has found a place in his designs of bed linen.

Michael Kors 'Tribeca' bedding is one of the most trendy and upscale collections in the entire bedding line. A comforter featuring woven pinstripes in a medium gray is accented perfectly with charcoal and platinum shades of paisley pillows and gray flannel lines. Each Tribeca bedding collection features a comforter, fitted sheet, one pair of pillowcases, a heather pinstripe pillow sham and decorative billow in black faux leather.

For the decorator who prefers nutmeg brown tones, the 'Taos' collection bedding will be ideal. As a perfect complement to hardwood floors, this collection of linens features a print comforter accented with solid nutmeg brown sheets with striped borders and accent pillows in both solid and print options. This collection is perfect for the home that features neutral tones in an upscale design.

Speaking of neutral, the 'Jet Set' collection features linens available in a beige coloration that will complement any bedroom. This soft tone is accented with a white border and is ideal for anyone who enjoys a monochromatic look in their entire bedding ensemble. While some may prefer contrast in their linens, others prefer a matching set.

One of the most fascinating aspects of Michael Kors bedding is that you do not have to live in New York City to enjoy the uptown trends, which is evident in the creation of the 'Park Avenue' collection. This set of linens features a solid cream comforter accented with a nutmeg brown border. To highlight this design, pillow tones featuring camel, brown faux leather, leopard print and tan are added to complete the look of this sleek and luxurious bedding linens set. Even if you do not live on Park Avenue, you can enjoy the same stylish bedding designs as those you do with this great collection from Michael Kors.

Research has revealed that we spend a large portion of our lives in bed. Choosing the right linens is an important aspect of designing a bedroom that makes you feel welcome and at home. When you purchase linens from the Michael Kors bedding line, you will experience a trademark style that is befitting an upscale penthouse with a personal touch that will make your house a home.

Michael Kors rain boots

Today's rain boots are descended from the English 'Wellington' boots. These boots date back to the 19th century, when they were worn and made popular by Arthur Wellesley, the first Duke of Wellington. This style of boot comes to just below the knees and are usually dark green in color.

 

---

Thankfully, designers have stepped beyond the traditional style and color of the Wellingtons to give us rain boots in a variety of colors and patterns; making them as much a fashion accessory as they are a pragmatic solution to mud puddles.

The rain boots of today are generally made of rubber and extend up the leg to at least mid-calf with some going up as far as the bottom of the knee. Rain boots often feature non-slip rubber soles for added traction in slippery-wet situations.

The interiors are often lined with wool or a faux-fur that helps keep feet warm and dry by wicking away moisture as well as keeping your feet comfortable. Many styles come with buckling straps near the top so you can tighten the opening around the leg to prevent water getting inside.

To enjoy great boots such as these, see what Michael Kors has available for you.

With Michael Kors 'Splash' rain boots on, it won't matter how wet and rainy it is outside because your feet will remain comfortably dry. The rubber uppers have an adjustable strap to close off the boot from catching water. The 2" wedge heel is finished off with a textered rubber sole and the 14 1/2" shaft with 14" circumference will keep you feeling safe in a storm.

The Michael Kors 'Everett' rain boot with zebra print will turn a rainy day into an opportunity to flaunt your bold and fabulous style. The waterproof rubber upper has an all-over zebra design. The 2" heel coupled with a rubber sole will keep your toes dry while keeping you in style and the 13" shaft with 13.5 circumference makes these a great fitting rain boot.

Michael Kors Logo rain boots are as great looking as they are useful. The black and olive Logo rain boots have brushed brass hardware, with roller buckle detail and tread bottom soles. Along the shafts are the 'MK' logo in gold.

The majenta Logo rain boots have goldtone hardware with buckle detain on the shaft. These round-toed boots feature multiple gold 'MK' logos along the shaft and the bottom of the boot has a lugged sole.

Michael Kors sandals

In prehistoric times, animal hides and skins were wrapped around the feet and secured with long vines to provide the wearer protection against rough surfaces. In cooler climates, these wraps also provided a layer of insulation and warmth against the cold weather. But in warmer climates, having the feet wrapped in skins and hides was burdensome.

 

---

What evolved in the Mediterranean as the first formal shoe was the sandal. Opened toed and secured against the foot by straps and thongs, sandals were worn by everyone from paupers to princes and both men and women.

Michael Kors Flip Flops

Michael Kors flip flops

Flip flops use to be the default wear for both children and adults while spending time on the beach or around the pool. Nowadays, flip flops have risen from beachwear to being a stylish staple for a woman's summer wardrobe.

 

---

You often see them being worn in casual work environments and as everyday footwear. This is because they are so easy to match with anything and everything. But the classic combination, of course, would be a pair of flip flops with a pair of shorts. These great shoes come flat or heeled, made from plastic or made from wood, and you can always choose the time-tested favorite rubber ones or choose to be extra swank with a pair of leather ones; whatever fits your mood and taste.

Flip flops were made popular for everyday wear when they were first paired with Capri-cut pants. This kind of cut called more attention to the feet, which made wearing flip flops more noticeable. Many women would not accept the bland and boring one-size-fits-all footwear and this prompted designers to meet the new demand for flip flops that were more stylish than the ones available at the corner drugstore.

Several celebrated designers have decided to join the bandwagon and design flip flops as well and there are a small number of companies that specialize only in these. One of our favorites for creating stylish and comfortable flip flops is the Michael Kors label.

Michael Kors Addi flip flops feature a leather thong decorated with gold detailing atop a cork footbed. The rubber sole features a mini-wedge and is available in chocolate or white with matching colored thong.

The 'Merge' flip flops have a multi-string thong with a metallic sheen. The rubber sole will keep these on your feet no matter the activity and these look great both poolside and on the street.

Michael Kors 'Salem' flip flops are Bohemian-inspired with a leather thong and woven-jute strap. The leather footbed and sole combined with a stacked heel makes this a great flip flop for semi-formal dress in the evenings.

Michael Kors flip flops are great looking as well as fitting. We know you would like to get the best value for your dollar so we have gathered together the best deals above that we could find on the internet for your shopping delight. Please take a moment as we are sure you will find what you are looking for at a price that will make you smile.
