Cherry trees in blossom, birds happily singing even late at night, tulips blooming around – nature finally opened wide its sleepy eyes unfolding all the spring colors for us.
Inspired by the lustrous petals and aroma of flowering trees, I knew the It Purse of April had to BE Dior!
“And he was seldom out of sight of the new bridges, which had married beautiful womanly Brooklyn to her rich uncle, Manhattan; had put the city’s hand out to the country; and were the end of the past because they spanned not only distance and deep water but dreams and time.”
Winter’s Tale, Mark Helprin
And that’s where my Winter’s Tale brought me: to the foot of Brooklyn Bridge – the colossal construction of steel with monumental columns made of limestone, granite and cement that became an imposing symbol of the power of technology and optimism of the time. Today, embodying the grandiose spirit of New York City, this transcendent architectural marvel still attracts thousands of people every day. Prodigious in the eyes of its first admirers, it transgresses the time and astounds the hearts of crowds today, and no doubt, it will still impress the ones that come after.
We may still have a week or two to wait for the flowers to bloom here in NYC but spring already said a sunny “hello” last Thursday at Lord & Taylor’s flagship store on Fifth Avenue, kicking off the season with #ShoesFirst party together with Nina Garcia the Creative Director at Marie Claire Magazine and Project Runway Judge.
“They’re not just dreams. Not anymore, I dream more than I wake now, and, at times, I have crossed over. Can’t you see? I’ve been there.”
Winter’s Tale by Mark Helprin.
I dreamed about the perfect blizzard to come over New York City, the one that transfigures scenery and redesigns the landscape; the mesmerizing snow storm that slows time down and takes you into the realm of pure winter wonderland, where snow incessantly falls with soft, sparkling, shooting star flakes that resemble comet’s tail when captured in the fall, before they kiss the puffy clouds you walk on.

This month, 13th turned out to be Friday and, although it could have been unlucky for some, Cinderella certainly can’t complain hitting $23 million on its premiere day, becoming Disney’s biggest 2D PG-rated opening of all time.
Fantastic ambiance, talented emerging designers, edgy make-ups, fabulous guests, spinning music, great networking and lots of glamorous fashion were the spotlights of the Emerging Trends Fashion Celebration organized by the SYNERGY Events last weekend at the Vermilion, 480 Lexington Avenue in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, NYC.
If you add the photos with Miss New York 2014 Julia la Roche, Miss Maine 2015 Healther Elwell and Miss New Hampshire 2015 Samantha Poirier – there is no better way to fashionably end New York Fashion Week!

There it is! It had to be this one! Fendi Mini Peekaboo – the winner of the It Bag 2015 Vogue Contest and my pick for It Purse of February.
New York Fashion Week may be coming to an end but that doesn’t mean the craziness of the fashion capital of the world stops. Not even for a second!
So grab your glamorous purse and let’s have a fashionable dinner. Where? Somewhere you can catch a second breath after hopelessly trying to catch a cab in between your next runway show and shopping ’till you drop gorgeous. Some place sophisticated, that will stop your glitzy watch ticking for a moment you step in “back in time” until the moment you step out “back to your schedule”, enchanted.
