By | December 5th, 2009

david noonan aneta grzeszykowska cindy sherman rachel harrison rashid johnson takashi murakami ‘Beg Borrow Steal’ show was a highlight of my Art Basel trip.

Art Basel Miami the show
By | December 5th, 2009

mathew monahan luis gispert david altmeid sold for 130k “Like anything so far?Too overwhelming to tell” More like underwhelming.Yes Basel is blue chip art and it is a huge show-impressive really.

By | December 5th, 2009

Last night at GenArt’s event I spotted this amazing head bling/hair art and met the artist. Nina Loren is based in Miami but she has a website of hand crafted jewelry. Check it out and order away. With the whole obsession with headbands, feathers, mini hats, this look is one to take off.www.ninaloren.com305-270-7747

GenArt-Stylish shakers
By | December 4th, 2009

Still enjoying the BK (brooklyn) flavor of Genart’s party at Aqua Art. Fashions were in full force. Performances by Overthrow and DJ’s Ray Milian Off The Radar were off the hook. Art was so intoxicating they had a hard time kicking the art lovers out at the end of the night. Leave it to Ian […]

Viceroy Decor Miami

MIA in Miami
By | December 2nd, 2009

The fashion police have arrived and things are not looking good for you Sobe. As a New Yorker and as an old fashioned girl I’m a fish out of water. My hemlines are too long, my necklines too high, and I’m wearing dark jeans but I’m not changing. I don’t believe you need to flaunt […]
