The Karl Lagerfeld tote.
KARL IN YOUR POCKET: Love, love the genius canvas Karl Lagerfeld tote bag from Pattern People for Hint. Stash the Kaiser into your purse and make him carry home your kale from the greenmarket, as you imagine his pursed lips and trembling fan. (For Marc fans, there’s a Jacobs tote, too.) $45 at Hint.com.
REWIND: As Sid 'n Susie, alt-poppy Matthew Sweet and Bangle Susanna Hoffs breathed new, quirky life into '60s classics on their 'Under the Covers Vol. 1' in ’06; we’ve been waiting for them to make good on the promise of a follow-up ever since. The folky duo tackle chestnuts from ‘Maggie May’ to ‘You’re so Vain’ (with guest turns by the likes of Fleetwood Mac’s Lindsay Buckingham) on 'Under the Covers Vol. 2,' out today. About $16; available at Other Music, 15 East 4th Street; 212-477-8150.
GLITZ: Sometimes you want an understated pearl earring or feather-light chain, and sometimes you want big, bold jewelry that makes a statement. From rainbow-gemmed chandelier earrings to chunky cocktail rings, Kendra Scott’s goods definitely belong in the latter category. Starting tomorrow, score savings up to 60% off (lots of merch in the $20-30 range) at her showroom sample sale from July 22-24. 231 West 39th Street; 212-221-7698.
