Cate Blanchett is one hot mama!

Wait, didn’t Cate Blanchett just have her second child?  How did she slim down so fast?  The new mom flaunts her fabulously curvy post-baby body in a chic black Armani Prive dress and Roger Vivier heels at the Helpmann Awards, which honors achievements in Australian theater, in Sydney.  There are so many things I love [...]

Delicious Summer Dresses

I’m obssessed with cupcakes. So much so in fact, that for Halloween one year I dressed-up as one! I wore a white tube dress and covered the bottom with tons of fluorescent pink and green tulle and called myself a cupcake! That was a few years ago, but not much has changed — I still [...]

Interview with San&Soni Designer, Sonali

San&Soni is a playful line designed by the innovative design duo Sonali and Inderjeet Singh. The two  met while attending FIT and found not only a design partnership, but also a romantic one. Sonali and Inderjeet married soon after meeting and together began building their dream of designing their own line. The collection features women’s high end [...]

Alexander Wang Bondage Dress

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this amazing  Alexander Wang One Shoulder Dress!  The minute you put it on, you’ll remember why it’s great to be a girl .  But it runs a bit small so go a size up.  It took me 30 minutes to get in it.  It would not zip up at first so [...]

RM by Roland Mouret

Roland Mouret famously lost the rights to use his own name a few years ago when he parted with his financial backers.  But clever devil he is (who else knows how to wrap a woman as sensuously as he does?), he came out with RM by Roland Mouret.  The line is a mouthwatering glamfest of [...]

Go Commando- It’s better than nude!

I go through phases of underwear obsession and buy dozens of the same style in various colors.  It was Cosabella soire thongs in the late 90s and early 2000′s, but now, I am obsessed with Commando Thong Lowrise invisible underwear.  It is like being nude but better not to mention more hygienic.  Commandos are paper [...]

Verrier Fall Collection

I’m super excited for Verrier‘s fall/winter 2008 collection to come out in August. The line is designed by Ashleigh Verrier, whose entire Parson’s senior thesis collection was bought by Saks and placed alongside Marc Jacobs and Balenciaga in 2004 — what an honor!Verrier’s new collection is called “Fabergé, Bohemian” and does a wonderful job at [...]

Hermes Collier de Chien Belt

One of the treasures I brought back from Paris is my favorite belt of the moment (and possibly of all time)– the Collier de Chien belt from Hermes.  I have been wanting this belt forever but they never carried small sizes in the US (what– do they think we’re all obese?) so I had to [...]

Keith Lissner’s Fall 2008 collection Preview

Soooo I went to this fab event at the Royalton Hotel this week, which just recently re-opened after a massive renovation — the hotel was initially designed by my all-time favorite design guru Phillippe Starck (though his stock went down a tad a few weeks ago when I went to an event held at Moss [...]

New Fashions from See by Chloe

Remember back when Stella McCartney still designed for Chloe? Well I’ve been a fan ever since! I’m super self-conscious about wearing shorts because I’m so pale, but for McCartney’s first summer collection for Chloe she designed the most amazing shorts! I still have 2 pairs — one pair I got was white with a pink [...]
