Well Matched

We might be spending selectively, but we haven’t given up our shopping habit. In fact, we experienced that familiar euphoric feeling when we heard about Matches’ Editions project. The London-based boutique chain (think Colette meets Barneys, with a more neighborhood-y feel) has gotten designers like Alexander McQueen (left), Christian Louboutin, Matthew Williamson, and Stella McCartney on board to design exclusive pieces in limited runs no greater than 100—Balenciaga is contributing a bag of which only five will exist—that will be numbered and sold with a certificate. Prices range from about $200 to $12,000. As a Style.com user, you can get a head start on your shopping list by following this link: www.matcheseditions.com/style, which gives you special access to preview the items before they go live to the world on March 3. Remember to shop responsibly.
