Back in December Nine West announced their new collection for fall 2009 called Nine West Vintage America which is slated to launch for back to school. The collection of footwear, denim, handbags and accessories offers a “more rugged and casual aesthetic” look. The collection features a “vintage and worn-in feel” consisting of lots of suede, hardware details, straps, studs, lace-ups, soft materials, plaid, faux fur and shearling. I kinda need the over-the-knee leather boot, so cute!

Prices are between $59 and $169, and handbags will average about $145. Denim will sell for less than $70, and belts will cap at about $58. The collection will be available at Nine West stores and online, Macy’s and other department stores.

Mark your calendars ladies, LA-based vintage boutique, DecadesTwo, known for their carefully-edited selection of contemporary clothing and accessories (mostly 1990s to present day) and a hotspot for celebrities to shop is coming to New York City from May 14th to May 17th. The pop-up shop will be in a private salon within Kiki De Montparnasse. According to DecadesTwo, “the D2 pop-up shop will feature a treasure trove of designer duds hand-picked by Garkinos and co-owner Cameron Silver. The collection will showcase pieces by Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Chloé, Balenciaga, Marc Jacobs, Prada, Gucci and many more. D2 will kick-off their New York tour with an exclusive launch party featuring the Decadestwo collection featuring pieces from the closets of celebrity consignors such as Julianne Moore, Selma Blair, Rachel Zoe, Monet Mazur, Lisa Rinna and Garcelle Beauvais. A portion of the evening’s proceeds will benefit the Ruth Ellis House in Detroit, MI. On May 15-16th, the pop-up will open its doors to appointment-only shopping for existing east coast clients.” Thanks to reader Melissa for the tip, oh I can’t wait to shop I’ve always wanted to visit DecadesTwo!

“Our New York fans have been begging Decadestwo to come to the ‘city’ since we were founded 10 years ago. Although we are fashionably late, it will be so more than worth it. We love the space at Kiki and can’t wait to pop-up!” says Decadestwo co-owner Christos Garkinos
