Mid-winter pick-me-up
Reality check, it’s Mid-January. Almost tax time, not quite Valentine’s Day, no snow, but you still need to keep warm. Although the weather is as fickle as the stock market these days, it is always better to be prepared. On a dreary grey day like this, all I really want to do... Read More
Get mesmerized
If you have been paying attention to fashion lately, you might have noticed all the trippy psychedelic videos that have been appearing on your screen. No, nobody spiked your Koolaid. Its just a phantasmagoric moment in fashion videography meant to hypnotize us fashion zombies into it wanting (needing) all of the latest... Read More
Looking towards the future
Fashion is one endless cycle. Constantly regurgitating the trends and naming it THE DECADE OF ____ and then debunking it as a Multi-decade Mashup is kind of screwed up. Fashion is in a quandary. Never before have we been able to wear 60’s grunge, 70’s funk, and 80’s ostentation all... Read More
London calling
I have an Anglophilic bug right now, actually more like Royal Fever. I just returned from the UK for the the long holiday between Christmas and New Year’s and am a little obsessed over everything British.

A new start for 2012
Happy New Year! Did you make a resolution yet? I did. I revisited last year’s resolutions, and while I cannot rewrite what was written in the books, I can rethink how to make a new chapter, and make this a great year. My New Year’s resolutions for the forthcoming year... Read More
Happy Holidays from my Inbox to Yours
As I write this, I am burning the midnight oil and packing for my trip to London. Cheerio! I am looking ahead to the week after Christmas, after all the gifts are unwrapped, Christmas trees laying on the curbside, Hanukah candles melted down, and relatives from near and far having... Read More
The Ad Campaigns of Spring 2012
Tis’ the season for holiday giveaways. You thought I would be singing “chestnuts roasting on an open fire” through this computer..but I’m not. Rather, I am looking at all the eye candy that is happening on my television screen whetting the appetite for Spring. Yes, today is the shortest day... Read More
Layering 101
I have yet to show up at an event naked, but it takes some brain work to get from shower to closet to what am I going to wear today to fully dressed to deciding on my location du jour. I started this not so skillfully mined layering story with... Read More
Crushing on Red
Whoever made up the rule that red should worn only during the holiday season hasn’t a clue of what’s happening on the runways and in the hotest boutiques these days. December is in full swing blazing full throttle into 2012, but red is here to stay. Santa or no Santa. Red... Read More
Forty eight hours of art, parties, fashion, and fun.
As a fashion blogger, I spend many hours squirreled away on my laptop writing and editing, and sometimes being a hermit is just no fun. Most of the time, I just want to crawl out of my writing hole and and actually witnesss the incredible clothing, inspiring art, and the... Read More
