So this weekend I stayed in the city and even though the city was blazing hot, I had a great time. However, so many things were going on in the Hamptons like the 16th annual Art for Life benefit which was held in celebration of the 20th Anniversary of Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation. They had a roaring 20s theme and honored Dave Chappelle and several others.

These three Chanel bags are giving me life! Make fashion, not war. Checkout the trunkshow here.
So I love this DKNY look. It’s the perfect balance of femininity and street. Sneaker heels set off the look and I just love this dress. Plaid reminds me of the 1990s and the lace just makes me feel fabulous. Of course, I’ve got my purple lipstick on. So they say not to smile that much for photos- who ever came up with this rule? Smile, no smile. Anyway, this dress is from the Fall but you can preorder this perfect plaid dress from Nordstrom right here.

Yesterday, I went to the No Basics Brunch hosted by Ty Hunter at Corner Social in Harlem. The music was great and the food made my belly happy. There’s nothing like a good brunch to relax on a summer Saturday.
I wore vintage Sabo Skirt palm tree shorts, a black crop top and neon pumps (similar here). It was a perfect outfit for the near 90 degree weather! Ty Hunter hosted the brunch and I had the opportunity to chat fashion with him. He wore a sequined leopard print top that I just adored! You all know that I love my sequins.
Anyway, I had a great time. Check out the photos below!

So it’s midsummer and there have been some lazy, hazy summer days recently in the city. While you may be taking your Fridays off and enjoying the warm weather, can you stop by my Go Fund Me page?
I’m hosting a fundraiser for art and fashion production supplies. One random donor will receive a special gift of an art print or a $50 gift certificate to Nordstrom!
Happy Fourth of July!

So I just left Florida and it was just so beautiful there. The sunset was something like form the land of milk and honey!
Anyway, I’m back in New York after a very comfortable flight with Delta Airlines. The past few flights I’ve had have been really turbulent so I can definitely appreciate a good pilot. It may just be a message for me to get my own private plane!
I wore this ASOS blue dress that I found from a consignment store downtown. Ask me and I’ll find out the name, don’t quite remember. But I love my blue dress! It has a cutout on the back and it’s great for summer travel.
Sincerely Yours,

So, Dolce & Gabbana dedicated their show to mothers during Milan Fashion Week. They also featured a dress with children’s drawings and the most gorgeous headphones you’ve ever seen. These headphones are fit for a Queen!

This week I stopped by ENK International’s Coterie to take a closer look at some of the Fall 2015 collections. Cobalt blue is definitely going to be a major color for the Fall. I just kept running into it everywhere. I fell in love with this Noir Sachin & Babi combo, it is just gorgeous!
Other amazing pieces included those from Alice and Olivia, To Be Adored and my absolute favorite finds at Coterie from Anna K (jacket and coat with orange collars below).
