A Hint of Spring: petite PARADE/Vogue bambini NY Kids Fashion Week 2013

Spring was in the air (in more ways than one) last weekend in the West Village, where several prominent childrenswear designers showcased their Spring/Summer 2013 collections as part of petite PARADE/Vogue bambini Kids Fashion Week. I was invited to check out the shows held at Industria Studios, thanks to Stride Rite, who was an event […]

The Skinny on Great-Fitting Jeans

Once upon a time, in the 1990s, the GAP had an iconic Denim Wall.  This indigo edifice of floor-to-ceiling denim selections was quite the sight.  The idea was to make it as easy as possible for the customer to self-select a jean type that fits his/her body best thanks to the neatly stacked, aptly labeled […]

Falling in Love (Again) with The Limited

There was a place in time when my closet was definitively comprised of clothes from two specific retailers, one of them being The Limited. I distinctly remember this splendidly magnificent black wool varsity jacket with creamy leather sleeves that had The Limited’s international logo (remember the one with all of the flags??) embroidered on its […]

Food, Fashion, Fun and Everything Fabulous in Delightful Disney

My family’s Disney Dream Vacation started with two and a half days at Walt Disney World, followed by a five night Bahamian Cruise on the Disney Dream.  As you can imagine, there is so much to talk about, but I don’t want to overload you with Pixie Dust. So in true mom a la mode […]

My Sole Mate

This weekend, my husband and I are celebrating our five year wedding anniversary. I think I knew early on that I picked the right mate when one of the first dates we shared was a shopping trip in downtown Manhattan. We popped in and out of little boutiques — with me immediately wearing one of […]

How to Look Celeb-a-Fab in your Passport Photo

Last week I attended a Spring makeup event hosted by Tia Cosmetics, held at Ambience boutique in Edgewater’s City Place shops. Despite many years of working with makeup artists, both personally and professionally, I find that I always walk away from a live makeup event with some sort of new tip. Bettina is the creative […]
