A closer look at Sarah Jessica Parker’s Vogue office in Glee

A closer look at Sarah Jessica Parker’s Vogue office in Glee
The creators of Glee are really pushing the guest stars on the new season of the show. In the three first episodes only we've had a double Kate Hudson cameo (please don't let this be it) and an Sarah Jessica Parker one. Of the latter, we have heard much over the last few months as she plays a Vogue.com editor, something that had to be okay-ed by Anna Wintour, evidently. It was also Anna who chose SJP's clothes for the show – a Faster than Paris tartan dress, which was cool and much after Anna's heart but also something SJP would wear.
The episode is, obviously, not to be missed and even includes a musical number with SJP in it. But I was almost more amazed by her office in the show. Not only it included some amazing furniture but the  set and art direction even included some high fashion props I personally really appreciated. Please note the Hermès tea cup and saucer on the desk close to a purple Prada doctor's bag from the FW12 collection. But my favourite, by a mile, was the Myriam Schaeffer bag lying on the sofa at the back – have they, perhaps, been reading Know Wear? I love it when TV is fashion-forward.

From the moment I first saw Myriam Schaefer's bags at the last PR Consulting press day in London I knew they were going to be a hit. So I was thrilled when I saw Caroline Issa carrying one of my favourite models, the 'flag bag', a few days ago during London Fashion Week.
Caroline doesn't only do a wonderful job as executive fashion director of Tank magazine but her flawless personal style has honed her a name as one of fashion's trend-setters.
But it should come as no surprise that Myriam Schaefer's sleek bags are a hit. The designer has years of experience at her back working with influential names like Jean-Paul Gaultier and Nina Ricci. But it could be said that her most successful work was produced with Nicolas Ghesquière at Balenciaga, where she created the brand's iconic 'City bag', which has been a hit for over 10 years.
Now under her namesake luxury brand Schaefer launches a line of ultra sophisticated bags for FW12, all of which carry a stamp with their series number – a sign of exclusivity borrowed from haute couture.  All the models, inspired in 19th century bags, come with a light saffron lining to make it easier finding everything from your iPhone to your lip gloss inside.
