My Week as Marilyn

Sweaters to shrug off the chill
November is “fair warning” season. A premonition of winter, soon to blow flakes at our doorstep. It is the changing of the leaves that is the tip off with darkness creeping in at 4pm and the plummeting temperatures that is the harsh reality here. We all lived through it before, so... Read More
Catch the fall fashion train before it’s gone
It’s about time I put up this video about Fall trends. Better NOW than never. Even though it’s mid-November (as I write this here in NY, it’s nearing 60 degrees), we only have 40 days till Hanukah begins and 45 days till Christmas. Wow, that is really soon. Although this... Read More

One fabulous leather dress
I normally do not post a “Part 2” about anything (way too boring), but I’ve had many requests for a follow-up on my leather story. I was called onto post pictures of myself wearing my leather dress and how to style it correctly. Before I ever started blogging, I took... Read More
Which Celebrity Wore it best?
Halloween is a holiday that allows us to celebrate our inner sorority girl – minimal clothing, maximum makeup, full-on drama. And the celebrities are no exception. I usually do not write about nor care about celebs day to day musings, but Kate Hudson’s annual Halloween bash and the costumes that... Read More
