Happy Halloween

Trick or Treaters are off to an icy Monday on the east coast. Speaking of halloween, the house of Dior is trying to replace John Galliano's genius fashion mind. This is only my opinion, but they should continue to search for a replacement. As creative and stage worthy as this runway. The clothes appear to be a hard sell for the Dior fashionista's. I love the brilliant use of colors combined with layered creative tailoring. Should be interesting to see what lands on the selling floor from Christian Dior..

Happy Halloween!

Office Spaces

Hello, the east coast was hit with a snow storm that has towns paralyzed with no power, down trees and closed roads. Happy to still have my power, however a large tree is blocking my driveway and before starting out my day clearing out the mess from the storm, here are a few ideas for your home office space. Included some photos of the storm aftermath. Strange one day pumpkins and beautiful fall weather and the next we have trouble getting out of our homes. Guess we can all relate to the rath of weather. We are very fortunate to others with much worse catastrophes.

Have a safe Sunday!

Winter Fashion

The Row

Morning Saturday Beauties! Cold weather is in the air so I wanted to post on a few fashion looks for fall and winter. Mary Kate and Ashley's fashion house "The Row" showed over the top fur accents on the runway. The color palette , styling and fine workmanship of their clothes is just amazing. Their knew line of handbags sells for as much as a "Hermes" and I hear the quality matches the price tag.

Oh, and how about the high end house of Celine, another fashion house that nailed it for fall and winter. Simple, elegant clothes, fine tailoring and a classic color palette. I just brought my cashmere camel coat to the cleaners and you know what I haven't worn that coat in years. My vision is white shirt, black slacks my cashmere coat and flats. It just may work for this season. So my friends, have a wonderful weekend!
