The Answer To All My Problems

(Alexander Wang)


I am having a love affair this winter season with ponchos. Trying to figure out how to wear them without looking like an extra in a western movie...proving a bit more difficult then anticipated. This Alexander Wang silk and knit poncho is clearly the answer to my predicament. Elegant and sexy, I am totally in love with the idea of wearing this with a fabulous evening mini dress and to die for barely there silver heels. Basically how the piece was styled for the runway. Now if I can only figure out how to finance.....will remember to buy a lottery ticket today after work :)

Just Blowouts

finished product

Several weeks ago Jac and I traveled to NYC for Coterie and showroom appointments. Of course as per usual we found plenty of time to have fun and pamper ourselves. I had read several pieces of press about this new phenom DryBar and discovered that the one in NYC had opened the day before we arrived! Perfect timing. I immediately got on the phone and made Jac and me appointments before we went out Saturday night for Brandon's Bday. It is hair mecca. For $35 you get a yummy cocktail, wash and condition, and a blowout! Everything is based around cocktail time, including the names of the hair styles to choose from. For example, I chose the Mai Tai (Beach waves) or one could go with the Cosmo (sophisticated curls). Needless to say I would be a member if I had a location within 60 miles of my house. Memberships are of course categorized as "Barfly" and "Regular". I mean really? Could this place be more perfect for me? If you are in LA or NYC anytime soon, one really must experience such bliss!

Hotel Judi's


A couple of weekends ago I decided to take a mini vacay at one of my fav places on earth, Hotel Judi's. My mother-in-law is the most fab host and I always have the most fun with her! Besides the Sweet Magnolia chicken salad and red velvet cheesecake...oh and who could forget the never ending flow of bubbles! The company is even better! Jac and Bianca Bear decided to stop over for the night on their way home from visiting Brandon and the always crazy fun Sarah joined in our fun as well! Tried a great new restaurant and ate way too much food! As usual...hard to leave and counting down the days till I return to this heaven on earth.

Fabulous and Pink

(Kate, Natalie, Meredith, Frankie, Tiffany, Me, Julie)


Several weekends ago all the girls got together to support Jacqueline at the Pink Tie Ball Lounge supporting Susan G. Komen for breast cancer. Jac chaired the lounge and it was absolutely fabulous! I of course was thrilled because I was able to re wear my Lela Rose feather skirt from my wedding! Kate and Julie are both wearing dresses they purchased at the store! And everyone looked amazing and danced the night away!

Sunday at It's Finest

(Edgar, Brandon, Jacqueline)




This past weekend, Jac and I traveled to New York City on our annual September buying trip. Of course as usual we managed to sneak in a little leisure time, or maybe a lot of leisure time. Sunday is always my favorite day while in the city. We headed to the Upper West Side to meet up with our loves Edgar and Brandon. After brunch at Cafe Lalo, we browsed the street flea market and then took a short cut through Central Park to go men's shoe shopping at Barney's. Such a gorgeous day and nothing is better then shopping with these two fabulous men.
