1. As we reported back in September, Barbie will soon take over Fashion Week. More details have surfaced, including how the main sponsorship may change hands from Mercedes-Benz to Mattel. [WWD]
2. Prada recently launched a new relatively affordable handbag line, Prada Special Stones, where every item retails for under $1000. Maybe they'll follow in the footsteps of McQueen and design for Target next. [Nylon]
3. Luxury labels have started lowering prices of goods by up to 10% percent for consumers. We still suggest scouring our Deals of the Day for much better discounts on finds that look luxurious without the hefty pricetags. [WSJ]
4. Shop designs for Count Me In and support women entrepreneurs. Purchase a black pearl drop from KimMarie Designs or Sophie necklace from Beth Devine.
