Transitions

I spent the rainy March weekend cleaning out my closet. My mantra is it shouldn’t take me longer than 10 minutes to get dressed but I have struggled of late to make this happen. The challenge stems from not being able to find items quickly and efficiently in my closet. Are... Read More

Dispelling the Myth of White Pants

It’s Labor Day! Hooray! Rather than bemoan the end of Summer Fridays and lazy weekend BBQ’s, let’s get excited about apple picking, leaves changing, romantic breezy nights, and the fact that we can keep on wearing our white pants right on in to winter. You may think we have to... Read More

Travel Light

When I travel in the summer months to any warm weather destination, I tend to pack less. Any savvy traveler knows that when heading to any place other than the Hamptons, there are massive sales on beachwear.

What struck me most in the film, was not only the fearlessness that persevered throughout her career as a mother of... Read More

Dispelling the Myth: Wearing White after LD

With the official end of summer just around the corner, it’s like somebody just ripped that bikini right off my body. Do I have to pick up my body off the beach, send the kids back to school, get back to work? Yes. Pack up those summer whites? NO. Today... Read More

Clear On

From the Plexiglas heels on the runways this past season at Christian Louboutin and Rodarte, to the almost sheer handbags at Phillip Lim, it seems that everything from shoes to handbags are in a transparent mood. When else do you get the chance to view the contents of a stranger’s... Read More

Game On

And I mean that in the Olympic sense and the Olympic sport of shopping. BTW, that shopping is not considered a sport is just out-of-bounds. This week on a boiling hot 98 degree humid July day, I styled baked in my favorite sheer white high-low dress with a ripped pair of... Read More
