Dressed to Thrill; The Duchess of Cambridge

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge with their beautiful children
Prince George and Princess Charlotte.
The Duchess is wearing New Zealand Designer Emilia Wickstead

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have been touring Europe this summer, and this time, they are travelling with their exquisitely dressed children in tow.  Vanessa Friedman of the New York Times dubbed their color matched ensembles, "Pantone Politics".  Whatever you wish to call it, I think they look absolutely splendid!

Wearing Jenny Packham, one of her favorite British Designers

Wearing Erdem, another of her favored British Designer,

and ours...

It is custom, is to dress in a notable designer of the country being visited, or the countries flag colors.  It s both thoughtful and respectful to the hosts.  The Duchess never disappoints! Her penchant for dressing in dresses creates an aura of impeccable calm.

Mary Jane Denzer, the store I co-own with Anastasia Cucinella has been a destination for magnificent dresses for nearly 40 years.  I don't think its a coincidence that both of us wear them practically every day.  We both favor the brainless simplicity of putting on one wonderful  thing in the morning and letting that be our statement. What could be easier?

When we were buying for Fall, we both wanted to expand our offerings to include dresses for all occasions , not just black tie occasions.  We scoured Paris for beautiful lifestyle dresses, suitable for work, luncheons, Birthdays, meetings, cocktail and dinner parties from designers we love; Giambattista Valli, Georges Hobeka, Jenny Packham, Tony Ward, Monique Lhullier, J. Mendel, Rachel Gilbert, Alex Perry and others.

Every day, when the UPS man arrives, it feels like we are opening beautiful presents...It's hard to remember everything we bought, so each one is a joyous surprise.  We love them all and seeing them tried on and purchased by our clients is incredibly gratifying.

We invite you to come visit us at Mary Jane Denzer next to the Ritz Carlton in White Plains. (914-328-0338), to see our new goodies. It would be our joy to assist you for all of your occasions.

Oh, and Duchesses are welcome too...

Forgive me Darlings... by divadebbi 

Like any other community, be it Blogger's, Pinterest, Tweet Deck friends or Polyvore pals, when you participate over time, you connect with like minded souls.

Since discovering Polyvore four months ago, I follow others and have followers.  We have a like minded sensibility about fashion, art, and set placement. Some of there sets are jaw droppingly stylish.  They inspire me and sharpen my eye.

Partially because of my real job as a Personal Shopper, where I  experience first hand, the topsy turvy retail reality of selling fur and velvet in July, I am officially abandoning beach and bikini sets.

It will be interesting to see what the reaction is...

In the meanwhile, Fall is looking absolutely luxe and luscious.  I hate to rush the summer, but part of me is already looking forward to hunkering down with 20 lbs. of fashion magazines.

I may love the long day light summer hours, but when it comes to fashion, is there any season more beautiful then Fall???
