Kate Spade's Hand in Hand Colorblock Mittens - $95
Since 2005, kate spade new york and Women for Women International have been working together to promote micro-enterprises for women in the still recovering communities throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina. The enterprise is the next step in an ongoing product development partnership over the past four years. Women for Women International will provide the training in knitting for the women, with creative direction from kate spade new york.
Knitting, a traditional skill in the region that has passed through generations of women, is now a source of income for these enterprising women. This partnership has helped Bosnian graduates transform their traditional handcrafts into high-fashion winter accessories. Rabija Mujalo, a participant of the training program and current employee of kate spade new york, says "I earned nearly as much money knitting at home in my spare time as my son who works full time in a factory."
An entirely black outfit BUT with a big tan leather bag.

But when nobody was looking she wore an unaffected coat like this.
And she would walk the little gravel path near the ocean in it, her hands inside the pockets for warmth, thinking her own private thoughts that may not have been much more complicated than what she had on.
In later years she’d walk around New York City in it, still in her private world.
She never owned an evening dress, or wore makeup. Yet she was, by most standards, the most elegant (and mysterious) woman in the world. Not that she cared.
What she had, money could never buy. (And she had money.)
Secret Thoughts Coat (No. 2488). Simple, mid-thigh length cut of rich wool/cashmere. Full, straight sleeves. One real horn button in front. Pull the big, well-shaped hood over your head and slip your hands into the deep pockets when you want to be alone. Jacket is unlined.
Color: Incognito Dark Olive.
Time can but make her beauty over again:
Because of that great nobleness of hers
The fire that stirs about her, when she stirs,
Burns but more clearly. O she had not these ways
When all the wild summer was in her gaze.
W.B. Yeats
