I’m a swimmer but I can’t stand the idea of wearing a speedo-just too butch for me. With spring upon us and my recent ‘water class experience’ with other people’s energetic Grandmas in Hobe Sound I realize it’s time to start getting ready for sunnier weather. I’m always on the look out for cute suits […]
On Sunday in honor of Valentine’s Day and Fashion Week I hosted an intimate gathering and 2nd year of fashion.tea.cupcakes at my 5th Avenue space. I love to give back to my best clients and close friends. My favorite ladies and I sipped on Mariage Frere earl grey tea, Nespresso mochachinos while nibbling on cucumber/goat […]
MISSION: One Perfect Dress Behind the Scenes of Fashion Emergency Package Last week I worked with an out of town executive client who needed just one special thing. The perfect dress as a west coast wedding guest. She didn’t want a LBD as she had several at home for work and she wanted something for […]
LOCAL RARE ARTISAN DESIGNERS ~I heart you! I like to pick up jewelry during my travels for memory sake but also for originality. I’ve featured Geoffrey Good’s ebony earrings in the past because they are so basic yet unique. They’ve done it again with ‘Sophia’ pair of rose gold and diamond studs. They are really […]
If you haven’t noticed I’m a bit of a RED Junkie. On 365 days of style I’m quoted as saying ‘RED is a major character in my life’. It’s my brand accent, my logo, my home accent color, the color of my favorite dresses, my hair is lovingly maintained in the perfect shade of red […]
I was lucky to attend the British Airways Face to Face event at the New York City Sheraton. I met many inspiring global entrepreneurs but I will spotlight one who had an inspiring style story. Jo Beyersdorfer, a marketing and events specialist from LA, told me how she recently realized that her long oversized cardigans […]
Yesterday at Saks Fifth avenue with a fabulous new French client I realized just how badly the fashion industry needs standard clothing sizing. I took notes as to each designer and which size she needed. Here are my notes: Jean Paul Gautier XL Roberto Cavailli 44 Catherine Malandrino M Not your daughters jeans 4 AG […]
Boots are on everyone’s minds in New York City this week as we’ve braved the blizzard of 2010. Last night while out with some friends the fabulous Elizabeth Webb of La Vida Femme showed up with these adorable cowboy tapestry print wellie type boots. I complimented her immediately and she shared that alas these boots […]
I devoured Clinton Kelly’s new book called, ‘Oh no she didn’t’ full of Clinton’s unabashed fashion observations which could have been called, Oh no he didn’t! A quick read which I recommend. Sometimes I laughed so hard I cried. He rips the top 100 faux pas to shreads. Some of my favorite pages are in […]
How was your Halloween? How is it that we now have 3 nights of celebrations? I’m missing the simplicity of trick or treating and egging houses. But I digress. This year I had the wonderful honor of judging the costume contest at Gilt City’s Monster Mash organized and curated by the uber talented Adam Aleksander […]
She helped me create not just outfits but a style statement for how I go out in the world in the morning. She’s given me a new sense of confidence, especially when I go to professional meetings
