Beach ready
The last time I took a proper beach trip was a while ago–possibly two Christmas seasons ago— and my suitcase was filled up with summer snazzies for an extended weekend give or take 2 days. I am heading to the Bahamas where the sand is pink, the sky is blue,... Read More
Cool kicks
Come Spring, one shelf in my shoe closet gets the switcheroo from heavy boots to lightweight loafers, and ballet flats for those days that call for comfort and major running around. But that shelf seemed to be missing one category. I wouldn’t dare wear SNEAKERS, would I? Besides the Isabel... Read More
Absoleggy Fabulous for Spring
Hashtag #Absoleggy. I just made up my own word. Definition: a term used to describe a person with toned abs and long luscious legs. I am about to drop the bomb on you. The proper lady-like à la 1960’s suburban housewife trend is back in fashion, as you know by... Read More
If the shoe fits
Jes Wade top, Dannijo necklace, William Rast jeans, Christian Louboutin shoes, Parker leather jacket, Devi Kroll clutch Last night I co-hosted a fabulous “Meet the Bloggers” event at Ruia, a quaint shoe boutique in Soho with two other bloggers, Lera of FashionAddictDiary.com, and Mariana of MSFabulous.com.

Paris fashion week
The designers, the models, the press, the photographers, and the fabulosity that is Paris Fashion Week has finally calmed down and gone to sleep for a few minutes. I think it was that Kanye party that signified the pièce de résistance or maybe it was Marc Jacobs’ surreal train ride for... Read More
Spring renewal
The promise of warmer weather and longer days has put some spring in my step. With daylight savings comes the extra hour of sun, a chance to renew, regroup, and refresh our wardrobes. It is still only Mid-March on the calendar, so the weather can be fickle like it was... Read More
My haul from Marni for H&M
Yesterday was the Marni for H&M launch and it seemed like forever and a day ago since I originally posted this back in January stating how excited I was to wait on line for 4 hours and shop another designer collaboration with a mass retailer. But this one was different.... Read More
Alexander McQueen
Sarah Burton showed her latest collection for McQueen in Paris and what a powerful enchanting show it was. It looked like an explosion of pink and white cotton candy. Or petals made of organza and feather if you will. Ms. Burton’s theme, “A beautiful future” was translated into a show that... Read More
