I wouldn’t normally go to a boy for fashion advice…but cutie Jack Mackenroth has such good taste (and always makes me laugh) that I just had to get his two cents on what a girl must have:

“I would say given the current economy , if you are going to buy something new then stick with something you will get some mileage out of like a fabulous bag or pair of shoes. The fall 09 collections featured a lot of metallics and fur and luxury but those collections were started many months ago and many of the trends are unrealistic now. If I were a woman I would buy a big carry all bag in matte gold. Maybe I will anyway.”

Well, there you have it. Watch for Jack strutting around the big apple with his big gold man-bag.
