I started working on this post on Thursday and kept getting sidetracked. But I wanted to finally get it up today so you can know about all the exciting time sensitive things happening online and in the real world. There are some great exhibitions on view now and coming up, as well as, new books […]

Happy Valentine’s Day and President’s Day weekend! I know a lot of people will be leaving the city this weekend but there are a lot of things happening for those who have decided to stay or those who will be visiting. I’m not really that into orchids but Jeff Leatham, famed artistic director of the […]

This post was supposed to go up yesterday but my internet had other ideas. Strangely enough, a technician from Spectrum was here on Wednesday and ran a new cable from the roof to my apartment to help my spotty wifi connection. On Thursday, my wifi and television went out completely and when another technician came […]

Fashion as Armor

He Who Seeks Beauty…

01 . 20 . 14

“He who seeks beauty shall find it.” – Bill Cunningham I’ve been trying to figure out how to broach a certain topic on the blog recently and I think the time has finally come.  I was really disappointed in some of you who emailed and left comments harshly criticizing the looks of the women I […]

Where Fashion Begins

09 . 12 . 12

What’s really funny about this photo is that I was so focused on Bill Cunningham that I didn’t notice The Sartorialist until I opened the photo on my computer. I live for the street style photos each fashion week but I’m really disappointed by the shots posted so far.  They all seem to be the […]

Fun at Fashion Week

02 . 16 . 12

Fashion week ended for me today and not a moment too soon.  I don’t think my feet could make it one more day.  It’s always a wonderful ride but also very exhausting.  I don’t know how most editors go on to cover London, Milan, and Paris fashion weeks. I am taking the night off to […]

Armor

“Fashion is the armor to survive the reality of everyday life.” – Bill Cunningham For those of you who live in New York, the documentary Bill Cunningham New York is now available On Demand on Time Warner Cable.  I highly recommend it.  The photo of Bill Cunningham chatting with Stan Herman outside the Ralph Lauren […]

Uptown Chic

03 . 22 . 11

APT with LSD on Vogue.com has featured their first uptown apartment.  I’m sure it only made the cut because it looks like a downtown apartment and is owned by a rock star and his former fashion designer wife. It reminded me a little of Marcelo Lucini’s Buenos Aires flat I posted earlier today. It belongs to […]

Now Playing

03 . 16 . 11

Just a reminder that the fabulous documentary Bill Cunningham New York is now playing at the Film Forum in New York.  For those of you who don’t know, Bill Cunningham is the originator of street style photography.  His On the Street feature in The New York Times has been running for what seems like forever.  […]

The New York Times Style photographer Bill Cunningham is a living legend.  Seeing him on the street or at fashion shows will never cease to excite the fashion flock.  He once took my picture on Fifth Avenue and even though it never made it into the paper, it was still a thrilling moment.   He reminds […]
