Desert Storm
What do Birkenstocks, mirrored sunglasses, and loads of fringe have in common? You guessed it, it’s almost music festival season. If luck would have it that you’re going to the neon carnival that is Coachella, consider yourself a lucky dog. There are going to be daytime pool parties galore sponsored... Read More
Cool Culottes
We are “technically” into spring now and although New York is predicting another darn snowstorm tomorrow!, it’s not stopping me from doing some major spring cleaning. Although I haven’t quite hit that warm-weather stride just yet, as what was 60 degrees on Saturday, is a freezing a high of 30... Read More
Indelible Ink from NYFW
New York Fashion Week has come and gone and the fashion circus is currently cavorting in London. As February drags on and we continue to get more snow days, really??, editors begin to leave for Milan, and then Paris. And I’ll have the FOMO disease like everyone else scrolling through... Read More
The Heart’s Desire
Where would we be without love? Seriously. Hallmark cards don’t really cut it, nor do those conversation hearts containing the message “Be Mine” that taste like chalk. Wy not celebrate for the love of love, Valentine’s Day by telling your loved one, whether that be your boyfriend, girlfriend, brother or sister... Read More
Fur is the Accessory of the Hour
I should’ve been a furrier. So far this winter has logged in 56473848 snow storms and in 2014 I would’ve made some good money. In recent years past, we had mellow and temperate winters, so I might not have struck gold, but I digress. Based on the recent Polar Vortex,... Read More
The Most Fashionable Friday during NYFW
It is currently Sunday evening in the middle of Fashion Week and I have a few broken ribs. It all went down after the Timo Weiland show when I slipped on black ice on the sidewalk. For an athletic girl to fall during the first night of Fashion Week is... Read More
Spring 2014 Ads
There is no better time for the release of the Spring Ad season than bitter cold mid-January. Besides injecting myself with vitamin C in the form of kale, blueberries, and orange juice, the sun won’t loan me UV rays anytime soon in the Northern Hemisphere. So, here’s to looking at... Read More
Winter White
January is the best time to play catch up on all the movies I missed in the past year, because the days are short and the streets are deserted. Instead of culling more stuff from the red-hot mid-Winter sales, or eating my way through the Polar Vortex, I do a... Read More
January 1 2014
I am going to consume under 500 calories a day. No more wine. No new designer shoes in the year 2014. In fact no shoes the entire year. I will climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. I am going to finish two books a week. Sound familiar? I hate New Year’s resolutions. We... Read More
On the Sixth Day of Christmas
In yesterday’s Business section of The New York Times in an article titled First on the list, A Blank, I was struck by the lack of the must-have item to close out 2013. Perhaps it’s a marketing miss or overall consumer apathy. Last year’s trends, those UGG boots I keep telling you not to... Read More
