It's that time of year...
We're in the middle of the crazy shopping festivities. I have to say that people seem prepared this year and on top of their game. That can all change this week...and I might need to borrow some of that Santa tequila.

Black Friday
Nicolette and I collaborated on the holiday windows this year. They turned out amazing - not surprising because she is a very talented person. I love the rain/snow clouds...

Hoilday spirit
It was last night and it was fabulous. What girl doesn't love drinks, make-up and good friends? I did a little gift shopping and got an amazing nail shellac. Some of the SLJ staff got makeovers and then they were off to the midnight showing of Twilight.
Rachel and I headed to Flatbread, after a quick shoe change - 5 inch heels and Flatbread, I don't think so. A big thank you to the wonderful staff at Mirror Mirror and a BIGGER thank you for the swag bag! WOW!

A Wedding Affair
This is one of the looks that we'll be showing from Corey Lynn Calter.
We'll probably use the Biata dress too - it will look great on Lola.
We also managed to score some holiday samples from French Connection. Mica is going to look killer in this piece.
Cynthea's Spa is doing the makeup and Salon Cruz will be creating the hair. Cynthea said that this Burberry campaign, will be her inspiration. Love it.

French Connection Show 2011
Here is Kat in the Jackson leather biker jacket and the ribbons knit off the shoulder dress.
The necklace is from trinket - designed by Molly M.
Julia is wearing the petra puffa vest and the streaky stripe top, a personal favorite.
Mica is wearing the twinkle knit jumper, which turned out to be the nights most coveted item, and an amazing David Aubrey necklace.
Lola rocked a long knit sweater dress, the purple suede belt, a chunky snood. The puffa coat in her hand is amazing. It has a high collar that snuggles right up to your face. Perfect on a blustery day.
Now on to the evening portion...
Kelly looked fabulous in the ella draped maxi dress.
Kat was killer in the drape delight dream dress.
I loved Julia in the pen dragon beading dress. This dress was the inspiration for the head pieces and the amazing make-up by Kirstin. The beading on this piece is to die for.
The tie on Mica's head piece broke right before she walked - she had to improvise. She's wearing another amazing beaded dress, the winter bex beads sleeveless dress. This dress is so on trend with what the runways were showing for spring 2012. Mica also has on the most supple leather jacket. I love the drawstring waist.
This look was a show stopper - Lola is wearing the starstruck asymmetric dress and the skating Kate faux-fur jacket. Gorgeous.
A big thank you to our lovely models - Julia, Kat, Lola, Kelly and Mica! You rocked the runway!
A big thank you to Brett Lupfer for taking the stellar photographs, thank you to the lovely Miss Kirstin for her talented make-up skills and a big thank you to Lauren from French Connection, for making this event even possible.
p.s. I'm wearing the starstruck scoop dress and Lauren is in the camilla stretch dress.

A closet full of clothes and I have nothing to wear
photo by Tommy Ton |
It's fashion week in NYC and my favorite thing is to check out all the street shots. I love these outfits - simple, casual, and killer shoes. I'm going to clean out my closet tonight and make a list of what I need to add. No more crazy tops!

McQueen at the Met
photo by Garance Dore |
So the wait was over two hours. We became members of the Met to skip the line, only to find out that there was a member line! It was well worth the wait, although I didn't get to see much of the "Room of Curiosities". Click here to read Garance Dore's post about the show. She really captures the spirit of the experience.

Northeast Kingdom
The restaurant is based on foraging local produce and the salad that I had was picked fresh that day (and everyday) from a rooftop garden. They also have a great "everyday" menu - double cheeseburger with duck fat fried tater tots! Long story short - the food was amazing, the atmosphere super friendly and we're definitely going back.

First day of Intermezzo
French Connection was lovely. They really expanded their stripe collection - which we all love. Color trend - mustard, melon, rust, burgundy, navy.
This was part of the holiday collection at Free People. I saw a lot of cropped sweaters, loose knits, and fitted dresses here. We've been layering the boxy sweaters over the fitted dresses and slips all summer. Looks like it will continue into the fall. They also had some great flocked velvet bras and knit wraps/capes.

Fall shows
Something like this would be more appropriate. The shoe choice is the most critical. Pounding the pavement, in the heat, really can make you uncomfortable if you go for a crazy shoe.
I will definitely bring my Pour la Victoire sandals and maybe my new Jimmy Choo's that I got as an early birthday present (thanks Mom!).
