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 […]
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 […]
CLOSET PROJECT, Confessions, FASHION AND STYLE INSPIRATIONS, LESS IS MORE, STYLE DIY, TALENTED PEOPLE,
The other night I got inspired to perform what I’m calling the ‘schlocky’ purge. It was a small rampage that resulted in 3 bags going to the Veterans 651-778-8387 that they picked up at my building free of charge+tax deductions slip rendered. It’s a reminent of the game changing experience of Bindu Wiles’s #shedproject and […]
Last night, I was chatting with a lovely friend who was telling me her woes of finding the perfect jeans (a common complaint for sure). She said that she has such trouble finding jeans that look good on her, and when she finally found AG jeans that fit like a glove, she thought them too […]
I was in a closet of a client’s last week and as she showed me designer piece after designer piece she knew they were destined for the donate pile. She really had nothing to wear. We’ve all been there… I was struck by this common cord-she had lost her fashion mojo. She had amazing but […]
1. The color is not flattering on you – somehow accentuating your usually-non-existent wrinkles/under eye circles. 2. The shape of the dress hides your waist or other attractive features that you deserve to flaunt. 3. The hemline hits between the ankle and below the knee, which is what I call the danger zone. 4. You […]
Another installment of the DREAM CLOSET PROJECT/LESS is MORE in collaboration with Guido Tenaglia and Hsiang Lin of EZarchitecture. So knowing that I would be spending a lot of time on a yacht in the Greek Islands I packed ‘light’ for me. I knew the lack of closet and drawer space. Here’s what I’ve brought […]
Made some progress on my closet after hearing from the DREAM CLOSET PROJECT architects Guido Tenaglia and Hsiang Lin that more space was needed. I got rid of a black skirt that I never wear, 2 pairs of shoes-one were a hybrid water shoe that never got worn, and a pink dress which was worn […]
Isn’t being a fashion stylist all about having fabulous stuff? I don’t think so. Personally I am yearning for less stuff and more space. I have found so many times when I freed myself of unused items I gained something big later. That slight shift in the universe makes room for better bright bigger things […]
Please join me on a journey of purging the things that no longer serve you. Listen to our inaugural PODCAST about the start of our project. 2.5 years in my dream apartment and 2 architects point out tactfully that my closet really is lacking in breathing space. They are here to transform my WIC to […]
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
