This has to be the most fun interview I have ever filmed. Michael Kors is the consummate professional and went along with all my silliness! We had so much fun dishing, shopping and later lunching (all caught on tape!) that it was hard to cut it all down to only 8 minutes of video.

A big thank you to Neiman Marcus for allowing us to film during store hours. I have to say, Neiman Marcus and Michael Kors know how to throw a luncheon. Two days before our lunch, an orchid and handwritten note from Michael was delivered to my home, very nice touch! Of course Joan Kors, Michael's mother, was on hand and I believe she is the reason he is so accommodating and nice (I aim to properly train my own son!). I am wearing my favorite Michael Kors dress available at net-a-porter.com.  Or you can check out Michael Kors collection at Neiman Marcus.

We are taking a break from filming Snob TV-- the last 6 weeks of webisodes have been fun and we're now planning our next batch so please stay tuned for more interviews with your favorite designers! In the meantime, I did this fun little clip for Plum TV in NYC last week. The host, Nick Leighton, and I went bag shopping and we compared the difference between shopping for fake bags and authentic bags... watch for yourself and see which looks like more fun!  And please tell me, do you buy fake bags? 

Plum TV is a a television network in eight luxury markets in the United States (for example, Channel 5 in Miami, Channel 16 in Aspen, and Channel 18th in the Hamptons). This handbag piece is also to be broadcast on Fox Business Channel. Check out Plum TV here!

On Tina: YSL Peplum vest and belt.  White shirt by Theory.  Necklace by Fragments (I put the knot there myself).  Marni Platforms in Grey.  Call my YSL SA Giovanni at 972-629-1700 ext 2037 or Email him to order!  A big thank you to Brian Solis of YSL for insisting I buy this vest!  It's my favorite of the season!

We've been longtime fans of Devi Kroell bags and to meet her in person is such a delight! We've hung out with her several times and she is always gracious, chic and oh so gorgeous and exotic (not to be biased but her mother is Asian-- Eurasians are so beautiful!). We went to Devi's showroom and got the lowdown on why she is anti "it" bag and all about individual style. Enjoy! See Devi's Fall collection here! Click here to watch on YouTube (iPhone)

What could be more fun that playing with exotic handbags all morning? We hung out with Santiago Gonzalez, son of Nancy Gonzalez and Creative Director of the company, at Bergdorf Goodman and got the lowdown on the history of NG and how she has grown her company from 16 bags to the empire it is today! Enjoy!

Going backstage and watching the models get primped and ready is more fun than the actual show itself sometimes. Watch us backstage with the most expensive hair stylist on earth, Orlando Pita... a mere $850 a haircut! He works his magic with T3 products (Beauty Snob favorites, too!) and gives us the lowdown on how he went from giving haircuts to anyone who'd let him to grooming the top models and A listers of the moment.

Get Tina's Look - Pink top by Ralph Lauren, pants by Azzedine Alaia, YSL tribute sandals, and clover necklace by Van Cleef.

We absolutely loved filming with Nina! She was so sweet and nice-- though we'd hoped she'd bitch slap us a bit :) We ran into Nina at the DVF show last Sunday and ran up to her squealing to thank her for putting us in her new book "The One Hundred". We were like two little kids, hugging her and gushing our adoration. Thankfully she tolerated us! Later in the week, I attended Nina's book launch party hosted by Marie Claire at Milk Studios and got a peek at her hubby-- quite the dashing and handsome man! If you have not picked up a copy of Nina's new book- you must do so immediately. I've been checking the list off and of course making new lists of must haves. Buy "The One Hundred" Here!

Nina is wearing Balenciaga, I am in RM by Roland Mouret (I have this dress in different colors, it's become my uniform!) and Kelly is in DVF. Bagsnob.com and Nina Garcia would like to thank Bergdorf Goodman for opening the store at 7am in order for us to film.

Oscar de la Renta, no need for further introduction-- the master of elegance graced us with an interview and a day we will never forget! We started backstage at 9am to watch the models get made up and dressed up, had a quick bite and hovered around Oscar along with his many design assistants who flitted about with last minute touches for the master's approval. We ended on the runway with Oscar himself for a few words before following him back to his workroom/studio. It was a magical day-- I was so in awe I couldn't stop grinning like a fool!! We'd like to thank CEO Alex Bolen and Retail Director Steven Mathieu for the access to all things Oscar. Now, sit back and enjoy the webisode. I know you will crave a few things when it ends so to make it easier--Order the Goya bag here.  We will be attending Oscar's Spring 2009 show on Wednesday and of course will give you the full report!

Her friends and family call her Dee-ahn, her fans call her Diane, we just call her fabulous! Watch our interview with the legendary Diane von Furstenberg! She couldn't have been more accommodating and friendly, first she let us pile on her jewelry and then she let us tour her private apartment above the studio. Shop Diane von Furstenberg now! Win a DVF wrap bag!

All in DVF dresses. Tina and Kelly in DVF for H. Stern knot necklaces and bracelets.
We filmed for almost 10 hours yesterday. Wearing Louboutins for that length of time is taxing to the feet to say the least. LOL. I am only going to tell you about one of our guests, her friends call her "Dee-ahn", her staff calls her DVF, her fans simply call her Diane. Yup, the legendary designer and princess, Diane von Furstenberg! She was the most lovely woman. She swept up to me and said "Are you Tina the Bag Girl? I have heard so much about you!" and then showered me with kisses. She then turned to Kelly and did same. She is so regal and has the most amazing energy! Talk about aging gracefully; DVF is beautiful, natural, and ageless! I even got a tour of her apartment above her studio, I want to move in! Can't wait to start another day of filming!

Oh my gosh, I just woke up and it's 6am! Usually we schedule our entries and I never wake up before 8am. Hair and make up and then it's camera time! We have a super packed schedule today, can't wait! xoxo
