Long leather gloves at Bloomingdale's

Although they're a little pricey at $198, these 12-button long leather gloves from Bloomingdale's are really appealing.  Sadly, they're only currently available in brown and red.

However, if you're going to show these long gloves modeled, don't show them scrunched to the max!

Nordstrom Pre-Fall Sale is just around the corner!

One of the first signs of Fall, at least fashion-wise, is Nordstrom's anniversary (pre-fall) sale.  Since I'm not a Nordstrom card holder, I can't check out the preview sale this week, but I'm looking forward to it next week.

However, Nordstrom is already teasing me with ads in my browser for their Miss Wu collection. While the collection features several nice leather pieces, like leggings, skirts and dresses, I was intrigued by the models wearing long leather gloves nicely scrunched to the elbows.

I love the text which accompanies this above photo: Take your jacket off, but leave your protective-yet-pretty accessories on when you get inside. These sleek, leather gloves deserve a lot more play time than just during your commute.

Even though the weather is just now heating up where I live, it's nice to think about cooler Fall days a few months from now!

Bottega Veneta black leather opera gloves

They're way out of my budget, and I'm not sure how practical they are, but I sure like the wide cuffs on these Bottega Veneta black leather opera gloves. They look great scrunched, but I'd be curious to see how they look worn full-length.
