Did anyone see the spread in Harper’s Bazaar this month (December 2009) called Diary of a Trophy Wife dictated to Rita Wilson, not read? It pokes fun at the life of a trophy wife. “The first time I had Botox, I had a headache for three days and I couldn’t make it to the Cavalli […]
The wonderful thing about clothing and accessories is that they are voluntary contributions. Unlike hair coloring, style isn’t permanent and always evolving. A few years ago I was Loft living Williamsburg (Brooklyn not Virginia) and trying to fit in style wise. Everyone was way too cool for school that hanging with my cool sexually ambiguous […]
Right under our noses in New York city lies so much talent. My inbox is always overflowing with talented designers reaching out to me. I sometimes do not make the time to go through it all. But luckily I visited Orly Shani’s website Tuc+Wes because it is a gem. The styles are slightly inspired by […]
Can you recognize this actor? Bet you can’t put your finger on it. It’s Jude Law as Minx in the movie RAGE set in the fashion industry. I love that Jude has the kahunas to play a ‘model’ and does such a hilarious Russian accent. His different looks are strong, striking, and playful.The movie was […]
What a wild ride. I’ve got a cameo in this short film shot by my very talented friend Abigail Shagwell Pope who is currently filming her cult film to be The Hunt for the Good Americans. I can’t wait to see it. But meanwhile you can enjoy this short film which shows a slice of […]
So I did black in a Donna Karan secretary sort of a way as a 12 year old but when I discovered that black did nothing for my coloring I banished it from my wardrobe. So when I hear people making such a fuss over black I laugh to myself because it is a myth […]

Hard to be excited about costumes every year because ‘STYLISTS LIVE COSTUMES ALL YEAR’-Scott Shuster I went as a Work in Progress (WIP) which is a big switch from […]
In the world adornment in the form of jewelry is everywhere. It is truly a universal craft. I’m a big fan as most women. I would like to highlight 3 companies that I have recently discovered. *Marc Bernstein I found at the Designer Market on the weekend on Mulberry Street. He makes necklaces and belts […]
So I’m watching a very classic but slow moving French film called ‘Last year at Marienbad‘ and although I have the slight feeling of a bad deja vu from the film I’m loving the costumes. It’s a black and white film so her outfits are either BLACK or WHITE. But one in particular strikes me […]
Ruffles are nothing new to the fashion scene. Men used to wear ruffled shirts at Versailles and I found a wonderful ruffle inspiration on Catherine Spaak in the 1969 movie The Libertine. To me it looks like a Ralph Lauren shirt. So I’m still loving ruffles and I love that all these wonderful companies are […]
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
