Razzle Dazzle Part I
“[…] the sun, which as it sank lower, seemed to spread itself in benediction over the vanishing city where she had drawn her breath. He stretched out his hand desperately as if to snatch only a wisp of air, to save a fragment of the spot that she had made lovely for him.” F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby“

Pastel Petals Part II
Time to open the secret garden’s gate again to walk around the charming ponds and admire the blooming flowers. So come in and follow me!
Pastel Petals Part I
Pastels: soft, delicate, light hues of color, so loved by Eugène Boudin and Claude Monet. Petals: romantic allegory of fragility, softness and bloom of woman’s skin.
Welcome to the secret garden of floral pattern and pastel palette.
Girls Empowerment Runway Show
Girls Empowerment Fashion Runway Show at Yotel Hotel last Saturday was the grand finale event of the Women & Fashion Film Festival week sponsored by TRUE Model Management. What an exciting event! I was invited by Dale Noelle, President and Founder of TRUE Model Management who explained the idea behind the show: motivate, promote and empower women and girls to follow their dreams and be confident not only with their bodies but with who they are. How inspiring!
Aye, Captain! Part II
Aye, Captain! Part I
Sea those stripes? Many designers this year incorporate the striped pattern in their summer collections. Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, Michael Kors, Calvin Klein , Tory Burch, Oscar de la Renta or Valentino, to enumerate a few, are inspired by nautical motifs and feature stripes on the runway this season.
Pistachio
What is your favorite ice cream flavor? Vanilla, strawberry, coconut, mint or maybe something more imaginative like ginger rosewater, white chocolate banana curry or goat cheese cashew caramel? I must confess that I haven’t tried those last three yet (they definitely sound tempting), but so far, my old time favorite flavor is … now you know! Pistachio!
Michael Stars-Style on Wheels in NYC
Michael Stars, a California based brand of contemporary clothing and luxury essentials has found its way to New York City! You could spot their mobile curbside boutique all over Manhattan. I met the Michael Stars crew and Natalie Suarez yesterday in the Meatpacking District. Their truck was curbed in Manhattan on the 14th and 9th Avenue. First such a fashion experience for me! And how great it was and what a wonderful idea!
