Dinner at Fred's in Barney's New York!

Tomato, Basil and Cheese to start..

Sparkling gift bags filled with plenty of goodies. Including hair care products, OPI nail lacquers and Marc Jacob's DAISY Eau so Fresh fragrance.

I chose the Spinach adorned Salmon for my entrée.

A Fruit Salad was my choice for dessert. I'll admit to stealing a bite or two of my friend Lindsey's chocolate slice of Heaven! ;)



On the Ninth Floor of Barney's New York, in New York, there's a restaurant called Fred's. I was lucky enough to attend the wonderful dinner party during my stay for Fashion Week. I had the chance to catch up with a few of my blogger friends while dining on delicious dishes. It was great fun from start to finish.

Why is dinner always better in New York?

Trench Coat Weather

{Marc Jacobs Trench Coat + Sweater, H&M scarf + jeans, Moschino wedges, Mar Y Sol clutch}


I love my little Detective Coat. I remember when I purchased it, a few years ago, from Barneys New York. My first real Trench Coat and by one of my favorite designers, too. Marc Jacobs really knows his way around minute, attention-grabbing details. I remember it was offered in both this creamy khaki and a semi-deep navy. After countless hours of deliberating between the two, I finally chose.. I'm glad I did, this subtle hue easily mingles with so much more.

Garden Tea Party

At second glance, New York Fashion Week left me craving something sugary sweet with my bright colors. Betsey Johnson paid homage to the late Alexander McQueen with Alice in Wonderland like signs, while models festooned in Western wear paraded within a Saloon set atmosphere. Rebecca Taylor kept the colors pastel, the fabrics soft and the models channeling school girl garb. Generra mixed basics with tie-dye prints, dark knee socks and chunky ankle boots. The teal accents, spotted suede and funky mix of free-range patterns at Custo Barcelona had my heart skipping a beat or two. DKNY played up blazers as short dresses with laced platform oxfords and thick knits for a finished, fresh and easy-to-pull-together look. Cynthia Steffe utilized knee socks, berets and french je ne sais quoi? confidence to complete an effortless chic vibe that clearly came through on stage. The paint splattered prints, stick-thin pants and metallics at Nima made me want to transport back to 1998, listen to the Smashing Pumpkins, Silver Chair, Nirvana and the Stone Temple Pilots while wearing such contrasting couture.

Diane von Furstenberg toyed with metallics, mastered the long sweater coat and reminded us of her love for pom-pom hats and shiny accessories once again. And, 3 claps for Abbey Lee Kershaw!

Clouds in the Sky

Went to the Arboretum over the weekend to take photos of Flowers before a Holiday party. My Thanksgiving weekend consisted of family gatherings, parties, barbecues and picnics at the Park and yes, eating and eating and eating. I also made Cranberry dressing for the very first time, it seemed to be a hit and now a new tradition. Hope yours was great as well!!





Vintage coat. Barneys New York dress and handbag. Payless tights. Vintage suede Lanvin pumps.




Now onto the big blogger secret I've been hanging onto for some time now, the one I keep teasing and tweeting about...
I'm going to New York next week.

I was cordially invited to a red carpet event. I'm so excited as this will be my very first time to the City. I'll be there for roughly 2 days, and would really love to pack in good eating, sightseeing, picture-taking, shopping and perhaps even some blogger meets ups!? Recommend away!!! I'll be staying Midtown Manhattan. I really want to see as much as possible!!!

Ice Skates and Sweet Dreams

There comes a time every bird has to fly. Although I will miss Miami very much, it doesn't mean I might not come back.. in the meantime... some memories I will hold on fast to.....
Rainy mornings, worth staying in bed for. Long walks on the beach. Seeing the Sunset next to a flock of seagulls. Drinking cold coffee in December. Wearing bikinis under my clothes. Seeing 90210 in my room for the first time. Rescuing Sweety. Bike rides at night. Lincoln Road. Urban Outfitters at Sunset Place. Mango smoothies. Family.

I am so touched by Nicole's illustration of me. Thank you! :)

Cause I'm high enough from all the waiting...

With two new pairs of boots on the way, by mail, I'm high enough from all the waiting... I know, I have a serious shoe problem. But hey, why not indulge every now and again? I'm excited to showcase them on the blog, both so very perfect for Fall. More boots, scarves, sweaters and denim to come as I make the transition from a sauna-like summer to a cool-enough-to-wear-heavy-knits winter.

For those of you who loved these american apparel shorts last time, you can see them again in black, here.

And while you're at it, don't forget to check this very glamorous, very luxurious video (about Westfield Shopping Centre, UK).
