I was in Naples, Florida again this weekend celebrating the Winter Wine Festival. (That was insane and requires a future blog to explain!) While most of my time there was spent enjoying the festivities, I devoted a significant amount of hours to wrapping up my pending orders from New York. The first that I completed … Read More

Watch It
While I was in New York, the one trend I noticed on everyone was “The Watch”. It is the most dominant trend at the moment – nothing bigger than fun fashion watches… The best watch in the market is from Rumba Time. They look amazing and are affordable. Rumba Time even brings us back to … Read More
Celine
The Pre Fall Collection for Celine this year was interesting. There was a lot going on – camouflage, houndstooth, color block. It was also defined by the mixing of fabric. There were some beautiful pieces that were combined with leather and a particularly gorgeous coat with a mix of fur. One of the most popular … Read More
I Am Wearing Vera Wang!
One of the designer collections that I had the pleasure of viewing last week was Vera Wang. The collection was nice. One of my favorite pieces was a two piece coat that is charcoal wool with black leather sleeves and a detachable vest lined with a goat fur collar. It looked fabulous both together and … Read More

I have spoke about my mother before in my Blog – I know I specifically mentioned her in my Valentino notes. What I did not say is that she is the most elegant, kindest person I know. I admire her the most and strive to be like her. That being said, I wanted to bring … Read More
Colette II
I realize I spoke about one of my favorite stores in the word, Colette, ad nauseam in my previous blog. BUT I could not resist making a final trip back there before my departure this afternoon. There were so many amazing things that I had to pull out the cardinal rule: Never buy anything in … Read More
Valentino
Valentino was one collection that did not disappoint. In my humble opinion the line is once again at it’s height. Valentino holds a very special place in my heart, because it reminds me of my mother. That irresistible Valentino red and the sophisticated designs allow my mother to present herself as the classy, youthful and … Read More
McQueen
Even after his tragic death this year, the Alexander McQueen Collection is still going strong. Thanks to his protege, Sarah Burton, and a solid design team the collection has barely wavered. Spring 2011 is beautiful, unique and remains in sync with what seems to be McQueen’s vision right up until his sad, premature end. The … Read More
