" NEW IN " Rag & Bone + SJP and Hepburn

Rag & Bone Cropped Red Sweater
Fashion Box Coffee Table Book



Isn't this cropped sweater from Rag & Bone a cheery Holiday red? I can't wait to wear it. My new Fashion coffee table book is already decorating my bookshelf. A fun read (and how could it not be?) with Sarah Jessica Parker and Audrey Hepburn both, on the cover. My two muses: both different, both stylish. A balance of my two favorite kinds of Fashion: edgy/unexpected and classic/sophistication.

This is undoubtedly my favorite time of year. Baking desserts, Holiday shopping, inventing Christmas Cocoa concoctions and savoring this wonderful feeling. I've already downloaded about 3 albums worth of Christmas music from iTunes too! ;)


I can't believe it's already Thursday! And that next week is Thanksgiving! Can you?

Kicking back on Sunday with Lanvin and the Oscars

Before, one could only imagine the outcome of creativity if Cleopatra: Queen of the Nile and Pocahontas were BFF's and swapped wardrobes. Well now, you can see it and this is exactly what it would look like: furs, feathers, black fringe, tribal jewelry and pleated metallics. Lanvin took my breath away. Well done, Alber Elbaz!


Paris Fashion Week really won me over this Season.


Famous faces:
Magdalena Frackowiak, Freja Beha Erichsen, Anna Selezneva and Natasha Poly.


Can anyone identify the model on the far left?

♥
Other noteworthy collections:
Christian Dior (Think: Newsies meets high-end, yet old fashioned, Circus glamour.) Isabel Marant (Sandy, from Grease, would so wear this. 50's and 60's chic to the max!) Gareth Pugh (beetle shaped capes and Space traveling-ready boots.) Nina Ricci (brought Old Hollywood Glamour back, in the form of body hugging knee length tea dresses, lace and pops of happy color.) Dries Van Noten (Think: Pretty in Pink, Ferris Bueller, with a tinge of Back to the Future / 80's cool!) And we can't forget about Balmain - Equal parts trendsetting and a flashback to 1970's: Disco glam.



Who saw Alice in Wonderland over the weekend? Thoughts? Likes/dislikes? I usually wait for the crowds to dissipate before attempting to view a feature film... I like it quiet and empty.


Ps. What is/was your favorite dress from The Oscars last night? I absolutely loved Sarah Jessica Parker's hair.


And, a food snap. For those of you who requested more of them.

A typical breakfast of biscuits with strawberry jam, banana and mocha coffee (made by moi!)

Mikimoto Pearls

The Sex and The City series is known for putting Mikimoto pearls on their girls; Carrie Bradshaw (aka Sarah Jessica Parker) in particular. I don't know about you but I am waiting with bated breath for the release of Sex and The City the Movie part deux. I have this weird thing where I have to watch it on DVD though, I don't like the theater environment, too many people and interruptions. So, I hope the movie release date is fast, so that I can get my hands on a copy of that DVD. The sooner the better. Carrie Bradshaw and her best friends have a way of making me smile, cry, laugh, feel elation and become inspired all through their dialogue, city lifestyle and witty comments. I love you and thank you both, Michael Patrick King and Darren Star, for creating these 4 remarkable characters and being able to bring them to life so well! Patricia Field, I want to meet you, talk with you and above all, shop through your closets on set!! This is the show I turn to whenever I am feeling a void....



You can find beautiful Mikimoto pearls and Michel watches at JR Dunn.

What's your Secret Single Behavior?

• I also enjoy saltine crackers with jelly, except I prefer strawberry. I'll have to try it the Carrie way though, with Vogue!
• I always drink a bottle of Voss or Fiji water before bed while reading Nylon magazine.
• Giving myself pedicures and manicures right after a shower.
• I love to have lunch, watching TV uninterrupted, when nobody else is home.
• I give myself facial masks and then sip lemon iced tea while watching Gilmore girls reruns, letting it work on my face.
• I hide fruit in the fridge in a secret spot just for me.
• Making Mocha Cafe with marshmallow creamer every morning to drink before work.
  
• Watching "girly" TV on DVD just before bed while eating a freshly made fruit salad.
