Anyway going back to my outfit. I was to meet Ken today to have lunch together, my class ends at noon so he arranged a lunch date together. I was eager and excited to dress up, so I chose for a soft rom

Shaun Kearney is the creative force behind the Cynthia Steffe label and if you could  see the details on this black jacket you would know what I mean when I say creative force!  This Cynthia Steffe jacket is so beyond modern and contemporary I can’t contain myself.  This jacket is very French street savvy and when I paired it with this classic tan wool sleeve less top by Max Mara  it sure does look like it’s French street savvy.  The funny thing is that both brands aren’t even French but you get

Good GOD almighty will you just look at this outfit?  Top to bottom this entire outfit is chic chic chic  starting with the black & white silk Halston scarf with it’s abstract pattern and timeless quality to the brand new Magaschoni cashmere top still with price tag on it down to the classic standard Jil Sander skirt.  Action packed and ready to do damage control.  To me this is the thrill of shopping thrift because not only is shopping second hand today HIP but it’s down right STYLISH.  We have

2 piece Nanette Lepore suit…..

This outfit has a very interesting story so strap yourself down and listen up…  I was inside a thrift store and spotted this Nanette Lepore jacket and grinned from ear to ear…. I mean who doesn’t love Nanette Lepore after all she’s sells her fabulous creations at Bergdorf Goodman?  So I had the jacket in my shopping cart and as I made my way around the thrift store I ended up at the skirt section and guess what I found?  Yeah the matching Nanette Lepore skirt that had been separated from the jac

This week the GODS must want me to find Cynthia Steffe because here we go again.  This brand new silver top by Cynthia Steffe has the original price tag of $265 still on it, and we LOVE that.  I don’t know who donated this piece but all I can say is thank you and keep it coming.  I took a front and back view of this silver top and I really think the construction of this blouse is exquisite to say the very least.  After I scored the brand new Steffe piece I found this beautiful Oscar de la Renta

How in the world do you make an uber-cool global fashion brand that  has no high priced skinny models or advertising and pay absolutely no attention to trends???  I don’t know what the answer is all I know is agnes b has to be it.  This brand created by Agnes Trouble, a French designer who opened her 1st boutique in the the early 70′s in Paris.  The agnes bbrand is STYLISH: it stands outside of the hype of fashion, focusing more on the feel good factor it promotes.  Agnes Trouble is not a woman

I remember when in the late 70′s and 80′s Bill Blass was the thing and every famous show girl working the runway modeled for him.  Delma, Diane DeWitt & Iman all proudly walked this mans shows.  Bill Blass is recognized for bring fine couture craftsmanship to American sportswear with precise tailoring and impeccable finishing.  Every major NYC socialite loved this man and couldn’t get enough of his designs.  So when, in a thrift store, I saw this green silk Bill Blass scarf I just had to grab it

I am sure you have all seen those adverts saying, "…become a top model…".  Or "You can become a model in only 6 weeks…" etc.trans.gif

I find it sad and pathetic that so many kids and parents fall for those solicitations.  I can only imagine how much money is tossed out the window by so many those hoping to become models via the Modeling Schools offering fame and fortune in the fashion business.

So for those of you reading this and hoping to become models, let me edify you to the r
