Love, Your Polyvore Friend: Sending Diva to Paris
Love, Your Polyvore Friend by emavera featuring blue jackets
Regular readers know all about my Polyvore addiction...It's not just a place where I get my fashion jollies daily and exercise my creative skills, but a place where real friendships are born, that know no boundaries across states and continents.
My sweet friend Emavera, whose beautifully curated sets I adore, created this set for me, to rally the poly troops to help me win a trip to Paris Fashion Week.
My FB friends and colleagues have been fantastic too! Here is the link to 39Nineteen's contest page to vote for me. You can vote for me everyday until the 14th :).
So appreciated!!!

Beautiful Barbarela: Affordable Statement Necklaces
Matthew Williamson empire waist a line dress / Giuseppe Zanotti open toe booties / Giuseppe Zanotti leather handbag / Necklace / Gucci fragrance /
One of the nicest things about my Polyvore obsession, is all of the fantastic women I have gotten to "know" over the last year. Their talents are abundant and so are their hearts.
It's particularly fun, when as a result of the their work on Polyvore, they have the opportunity to launch new career directions.
Such is the case with my friend Barberela from Bulgaria (click on her name to see her beautiful sets). This past year she launched an on line jewelry website, Barbarela Jewerly. I couldn't be happier for her!
When you create a Polyvore set, you get to choose every element of the design. When I was looking for something to embellish, this already ambitious Matthew Williamson dress, I was excited to find Barbarela Jewelry available to include.
Statement necklaces are definitely having a moment...there is nothing that will zshush a tee shirt or simple sheath faster:
Above are two stunners, the top from Lanvin and the bottom from J.Crew. The only caveat is that they can range from hundreds to thousands...a lot of faux bling for the buck, and a trend du jour to boot.
Compare that to Barbarela's beautiful necklaces above, which range from $30-$50 and everything ships for free.
I also am crazy about her embellished leather braided bracelets that are in the $15-$20 range:
So next time you are looking for a lot of looking for the latest looks in fantastically priced fashion jewelry, please consider visiting Barbarela Jewelry.
I'm all about Girl Power and I love nothing more than to see my friends achieve their dreams...

For Lidia
Lela Rose petite cocktail dress, $740 / Lanvin outerwear / Christian Louboutin sandals / Edie Parker black and gold clutch / Raxevsky leopard bracelet, $19 / Face makeup / Chloé fragrance, $75 /
One of the nicest things about my Polyvore obsession, is that I have gotten to know fantastic women, from all over the world.
I "met" the incredibly talented Lidia Solymosi long before I actually saw her. Lidia is one of the most popular creators on Polyvore. Her eye is impeccable and whether she is creating fashion or art sets, they often, literally, take my breath away. We connected because we liked each other's style and communicated through messages in Poly.
In June, Polyvore sponsored a meet up in NYC. Lidia flew in from Canada and it was amazing to finally get together. Knowing my style to a tee, she bought me the lovely Valentino leopard scarf I'm wearing in the set above.
Lidia recently made this charming set for me, so I created this for her. I think of her often and especially when I wear this pretty scarf.
I'm thankful for Polyvore, because it allows me to be creative, stay ahead of the fashion curve and sharpen my eye to style my clients. It also has been the catalyst for creating new friendships.
My mother recently spent a week with us as she recuperated from cataract surgery. She is convinced that because of technology, people are going to lose the art of communicating. I can see her point...she saw my family tethered to our iphones and ipads, but on the flip side, if it wasn't for technology, I never would have gotten to know Lidia.
The world is a changing...and I am not the least bit nostalgic for my answering machine.

The Joy of Styling
Brunello Cucinelli pintuck top / Chanel blazer / Alice + Olivia brown stretch pants / Lanvin ankle boots / Yves Saint Laurent leather handbag / Brunello Cucinelli necklace, $1,335 / Hermès wide bangle / Gorgeous Cosmetics palette eyeshadow / Ilia thickening mascara, $29 / Tocca fragrance
It's the calm before the storm time for me...I'm enjoying the last of summer, along with my clients this week, but I'm already bracing myself for September's marathon.
Let's face it, women love Fall clothes. They are rich and substantial in color, hue and fabrication. They literally caress the senses; think buttery suede, luscious cashmere, fluid silk velvet, richly textured brocades and crisp cotton.
I'm so fortunate to love my work at Richards of Greenwich, where I have been their Personal Shopper for the last 12 years. I have the most loyal and wonderful clients, who trust me to help them every season to cull our collections and style them individually, to meet the needs of their busy lifestyles.
When I think of women like Olivia Palermo, who are incredibly versed in fashion and completely confident in her choices, I reminded of several of my own clients who have just that sort of knack.
Don't think for a second that Olivia does it alone...there are lots of me's out their helping her do the legwork. Lucky Girls--they have the second best job in the world...

Leather Leggings: This Season's Must Have
Leather Leggings: This Season's Must Have by divadebbi
Polyvore asked us to create sets based on leggings for a recent contest To the dismay of pear shaped women everywhere, leggings are the most ubiquitous trend of the season. (Sorry Girls, you will just have to sit this one one out).
Since Polyvore is essentially my fantasy closet, my sets are always based on my personal style. The designers in this set are available at Richards in Greenwich,(my other fantasy closet), where I am their Personal Shopper. The temptations are endless...
I love these incredible burgundy leather leggings from The Row paired with one of Veronica Beard's, long shaped blazers with detachable cashmere tweed insets and this seasons other must have, the black ankle boot.
My Mediterranean blood runs hot, so I frequently wear sleeveless tanks under blazers and long cardigans, layered with long or chunky necklaces. I have always adored sleek clutches and have collected a stylish assortment over the years. This burgundy and black Michael Kors python clutch would look amazing with black, grey or navy.
Win or lose, a Girl can dream...Can't she???
