Someone recently told me they liked that all my Chanel bags were different and unique. Meaning, I wasn’t carrying the ubiquitous black quilted 2.55 flap bag. Not that there is anything wrong with the classic Chanel style but sometimes it’s fun to mix things up. My not so secret source for all my vintage Chanel […]
It’s really hard to look and feel chic when the windchill is 0 degrees but the fashion flock are doing a pretty good job this fashion week. Except for those wearing sandals with bare legs on snowy days. They just look stupid. I’ve tried to put together some of the more appropriate yet interesting looks. I […]
It’s been so cold in New York this week that I had to break out my winter coat again. When it finally does warm up, I look forward to being able to just wear a blazer outside. Since I work from home most days, I often wear jeans and will dress them up with a […]
Long time readers will remember my aversion to pink. Well, this awful winter has left even me longing for the cheerful affect of a little color. I actually fell in love with a pink jacket from J.Crew when I saw it at their presentation last year. It turned out to be a very expensive Collection […]

Big thanks to my friend Sarah at Rice and Beans Vintage for alerting me to the fact that Stella McCartney was also feeling green. Her 2011 pre-fall collection is full of emerald green mixed with navy and even gray. Maybe Pantone should call me before they choose their color for 2012! Green is definitely good!
Since we will be attending so many events in Paris, I really did need to lay out all my outfits and plan them in advance. You don’t want to get to your destination and realize you forgot something important like the right pair of shoes or your favorite necklace. Here’s a look at some of […]
When I mentioned that I was booked on an Oceania cruise and trip to Miami, the first question many asked was whether I was going to post my outfits. I often joke that if I ever write my autobiography, it will be subtitled, Confessions of an Overpacker, but laying everything out and planning each day’s outfits […]
