Beverly Center’s brand new store: Versace Collection | Photo by Jennifer Oh
The Beverly Center shopping mall in Los Angeles is home to many high-end and affordable clothing stores and boutiques. Stores such as, Tiffany’s, Burberry, Forever 21, and Macy’s have had Los Angelenos and tourists flock to Southern California’s very first fashion location. Now, shoppers could purchase from its brand new store, Versace Collection. The high-end brand house extended its line so that men and women could have a chance to wear Versace without breaking the bank.
On Saturday, October 20th, Audrey Magazine attended a private viewing of its Fall/Winter 2012 Collection. Hosted by Phoenix International Magazine, event goers, who were dressed in their best clothes, sipped on champagne and hors d’oeuvres as they enjoyed the mini fashion show. After the models strutted the clothing around the store, attendees spent some time shopping. 10% of each purchase that evening was donated to The Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation.

Though temperatures seem to be rising here in Southern California, it’s never too early to start getting ready for the cooler season of fall. While I do appreciate the sunny days, I am anxious for the temperatures to start to come down and for my sweaters, boots and scarves to start to come out of storage. Admittedly, I am even more excited for some new additions to my fall wardrobe. Check out some of the trends – straight from the runway – that’ll be making their mark this fall!
As we’re working furiously to put our Spring 2011 issue to bed, I’m obsessed with a couple things that will be in the issue: the music of The Go! Team, our cover girl Olivia Munn, and the color orange. Orange lips, orange accessories — you name it, I want it.
So I’m dying to get a hold of one of these for myself:
That’s Onna Ehrlich‘s “Jessica” crossbody bag in — that’s right — bright, tangerine orange. (Orange, studs, chain braided strap … I die.)
Art Center grad Onna Ehrlich is inspired by her Nigerian roots, and you’ll see touches of that in the detailing, from custom beadwork to elegant ruching. Combine that with a laid back California sophistication, and anyone can pull off her carefully crafted handbags handmade with vibrant, lush leathers, snakeskin, and croc embossing, all made in the U.S. It’s no wonder her clutches, satchels and totes have been seen on the arms of everyone from Halle Berry to Lindsay Lohan. Oh, and did we mention, Ehrlich gives back a portion of the proceeds to Breast Cancer Research Foundation and AIDS projects? Now that’s real elegance.

And now she’s offering 30 percent off on her Rachael bag to Audrey readers. A modern hobo with a classy twist comes in durable leather with a roomy interior and an additional long removable hand stitched strap. The main compartment folds over to reveal a zipper closure with an elegant zipper tassel. Interior is fully lined with a zipper pocket, cell phone holder an extra pocket, zipper closure and gold hardware. The bag comes in navy, brown or black, and retails for $650, but you can get it for $455. Just use promo code “Golden” when checking out at www.onnaehrlich.com.

What have I been saying? One bag you have to have in your summer wardrobe arsenal is one with a chain strap that you can wear cross-body style. It adds that little bit of that casual-just-threw-it-on feel you always want in an outfit, but with a purple studded beaut like this, no one will doubt your fashion savvy.
