yesterday evening, amy surprised team scarpa with a wonderful holiday dinner at the store, complete with a stocked bar featuring favorite cocktails from an earlier blog post this month. gifts, baked goods, and laughs were exchanged, and momo ate as many stray scraps that fell from our plates as he could manage. a fujifilm instax was floating around throughout the night and captured some of the festivities. . .
question: what does each of these pictures have in common? besides the fact that each look is modeled by scarpa's own lovely jane, each of them also features a pair of new jeans -- and many other new goods, as well!
highlights include new styles and washes from made in heaven, super-supple, slightly shimmering bags and pouches by monserat de lucca, and divine silk tops from crippen.

we’ve had a recent influx of new bags. Not only did I want to share them with you, dear reader, but I also thought I’d do some investigating: what do several members of the scarpa team have on hand at all times in their sacs à main? find out below. . .
I like the philosophy of Capi’s Jerome dreyfuss: bags inside of bags. Small pouches by b. may and tracy tanner help to organize some of the essentials, such as lip gloss and advil. Other staples of Capi’s carryall: spare keys, cinnamon altoids, wallet, cough drops, tom ford aviators, and the vital snack: white truffle “pipcorn” from feast!
For Mary Kathryn, each of her bags is never without a small seashell (a reminder of the beach and her mom) and a little cat charm (for good luck). She keeps some of the more familiar accoutrements on hand, as well: wallet, chap stick, pens, Advil, hair clips, at least one pair of sunglasses, hand sanitizer, and hand lotion. Other items of note: multiple lip glosses (that never get used, she adds), an NYC subway card (even though she hasn’t lived in the city for a year), and a Sam’s club membership card (that has never worked) but does sport a picture of a four-year-old MK.
add your own personal treasures, whether they be practical or of some sentimental value, to any of these fabulous bags, pictured below. . .
(clockwise, left to right) all that glitters is, in fact, gold on this new two-tone tote by alice d; go luxe with the super supple billy by jerome dreyfuss, or add a touch of studded edge with a calleen cordero.
