Sneaker heels will keep you looking street and lady-like at the same time! They might especially come in handy in this funky NYC weather… cold, rain, hurricane. I can’t wait to grab these!
Love this silver metallic DKNY Spring 2013 heel. So cute.
Yours,

So, my cousin Monique Nelson, Uniworld‘s new CEO, recommended I read By Invitation Only: How We Built Gilt from the Gilt Groupe founders Alexis Maybank and Alexandra Wilkis Wilson for an interesting read on building a company in the fashion business.
Am currently working to use my artwork to start my own fashion brand and just got the book in the mail. I’m excited to start reading!
Yours truly,

Last night I attended the unveiling of the Furla and Saks Fifth Avenue Femme Fairytales Handbag Collection hosted by Kelly Rutherford of Gossip Girls!
The candy bags were very whimsical and fabulous. Rebecca Moses was commissioned to illustrate and create stories of five special women (Femme Fairytales). They represent the story and lives of the women and each one was quite unique- jewels, studs and even blue ostrich feathers! The bags are actually not that expensive, to my surprise. Most seem to selling for at least under $1000.
I chatted with Vera Wang (love her work) and showed off one of my favorite bags with Fabio Fusi, Furla’s Creative Director. The president of Furla, Giovanni Furlanetto, was also in attendance representing the company. It was a lovely evening!
This weekend the hottest designer fashion for kids hit the runway at the VOGUE Bambini Fashion Show also known as the Petite Parade.
Beautiful kids handpicked by the children’s fashion magazine strutted their stuff downtown at Industria Superstudio near the MeatPacking District. The show featured designs for children by Olivia Rose, Caramel Baby & Child and Lilly Pulitzer and more.
They were adorable!
Maison Martin Margiela’s deconstructed and oversized look is hitting H & M stores November 15th. This playful collection will certainly stir up the ‘norm’ at H & M this Fall.
I personally just love the contrast of the below outake from the lookbook: sparkly silver leggings paired with a big white coat.
Hey everyone,
Happy Monday to you, hope you’re having a great day at work!
These new Giuseppe Zanotti blue pumps make me really happy at work as they go great paired with a conservative gray, blue or black dress for the office!
This is a great way to spice up your outfit at work. Pair them with a great shift dress like the grey “CEO” or black “Work with Me ” dresses shown below, for example, from ModCloth.
I had an amazing evening at Crier PR’s beauty event inside the Penthouse of the Royalton Hotel.
I met Manna Kadar, creator of Manna Kadar Cosmetics who made my eyes glow and lips shimmer.
I loved the penthouse balcony and the goody bag filled with so many products. I can’t wait to try them all!
Love the way the New York skyline is the perfect backdrop for my Lipsy London dress and Giuseppe Zanotti blue pumps. And speaking of backdrop, for a panty-free line in a fitted dress, make sure you slip into some thong underwear. One of my favorites is by Hanky Panky, available at Bloomingdale’s.

One of my favorite quotes on fashion, not to mention my favorite accessory. Must have brands:
