Model in Milan




Happy Fashion Tuesday,
Last Week, while sitting in Milan Airport, next to me was a pretty young girl that appeared to have a face of a model.  I was waiting to board the plane and was reading Vogue Paris issue.   The pretty girl kept looking over  at the pages of vogue.  Since I was just about finished reading, I glanced over and  asked if she would like the magazine.Excited she told me that many of her friends where in the issue and told me her name was Lindsey from Kansas. While reading through fashion week editorials I came upon Lindsey ON STYLE.COM . Pleasure to Meet You Lindsey!

Marc Jacobs Spring 2013


Hi Sweets, Maybe it's the mood!  But, how bad  would it be to say "you won't find me in Marc Jacob's stripe gear for spring". Can't imagine  how these  stripes will appear  in size 8 or above.   A  fashion statement? I'll take the Khaki part of the collection.  If you have comments, don't hesitate!

Buona Sera my beauties!











Victoria Beckham Spring 2013

Hello and welcome to Monday! So,  Check out Victoria Beckham's Spring Collection.  Love her styling and attention to details.  This is the first  reporting on her line and must say wow, impressive!


After eight years building a small dress collection into an internationally significant brand, Victoria Beckham has a self-confidence that allowed her to move the signature aesthetic sharply on. There were flat shoes (conceived with the help of Manolo Blahnik , no less). There were men’s shoes! Hell, there was even trousers! But most of all, there was a sense of quiet assurance.
“Everything that was important to me when I started out is still important,” she explained. “I always design what I want to wear - but I wanted to design more than just another dress. It was about taking my aesthetic and applying it to separates.”  Citing long periods travelling on work trips to China as an inspiration, the collection introduced new ideas of versatility and ease. Silk, canvas and leather were worked together – “texture was a real focus” – into knee-length dresses, sometimes spliced with mesh panels. Victoria herself was wearing one of these black dresses, cut to mid-thigh, banded with lace and ruffled at the hem.
Lingerie detailing was also a feature: bras with sportswear banding peeped from beneath most dresses or were worn alone under a jacket.
But more significantly, the collection introduced a new kind of tailoring: sharply-cut silk and crepe jackets, worn over slick, slim trousers or long, fluid skirts.
“I am so proud of them!” Victoria said, wiping away more tears. “I am particular about shoulders and fit, which is why I’ve waited to design those. Now I can’t wait to wear them.”
And what did David think? “Just brilliant!” Baby Harper only smiled.

Visit to Chanel NYC




Good day! After the Fashion Show at Lincoln Center, my niece Paige and I wandered in to the Chanel Shop on 57th and 5th for  chat with the store manger. The most sought have Chanel bags are kept hidden in the back room.  He so kindly brought them out and we got a first hand view.   The luxury brand likes to keep a bit of privacy.

Jason Wu Spring 2013




 Designer Jason Wu 
Hello weekend wanderers!    Jason Wu displayed an edgy chic  collection for spring 2013 . A collaboration with the lingerie maker La Perla provided ample cause for all the sheer chiffons. A tanned and taut midriff was on full display between a lace bandeau top and kicky leather skirt. Well tailored and precise sheers got the attention it deserved 
Does the dominatrix shoe fit for Mr Wu? Some of the kink did push Wu dangerously beyond his comfort zone. The tailoring, was his perfect  strength. Once again we are seeing a peek of color in  peachy rose
Have a fashionable weekend!
