The Gift of Social Media Friendshps
Victoria Beckham fitted dress, $3,510 / Giorgio Armani cut-out shoes / Pier 1 Imports magnolia home decor / Valentino's New Flagship Opens Up At Fifth Avenue - Pursuitist
Sometimes, I'm just amazed at how my world has been enriched by the Internet and social media. Yes, at times, I too tsk tsk about how much of our time is spent gazing into our palms when we could and should be more present in the moment.
That being said, I have also made scores of new friends and rekindled old friendships via Polyvore, Twitter, Facebook and more recently Instagram.
My very talented friend Vera created this Polyvore set to celebrate my blogs 7th anniversary and so nicely, to honor my style. I am deeply touched. (You can see more of her fabulous sets here. The lovely "Emavera", as she is known, as over 55,000 followers!).
Maybe the goal should be to balance it all a bit better...remaining "unplugged" in the presence of friends, colleagues and family, yet still recognizing magical connections can and do happen in cyberspace.
I'll work on it...how about you?

George and Amal Tie the Knot!!!
George and Amal Tie the Knot!!! by divadebbi
How fab... It wasn't really that George Clooney was a confirmed bachelor, it's simply that he never met the right woman, until Amal Alamuddin.
They married after just 5 months of dating in Venice this past weekend and no one can deny they looked gloriously relaxed and happy.
I am simply mad for her style. Above, she stunned in wide legged Stella McCartney pants and black banded crop top with a matching wide brimmed black trimmed hat.
Divine!

| How I loved that Amal chose and American designer for the honor of creating her dress. Here at a final fitting with the venerable Oscar de la Renta |
Amal is beautiful, brilliant and to my delight, a glamazon who has great personal style and wears clothes like a floating mannequin. I'm going to enjoying watching her on the Red Carpet for years to come.
Well done George!!!
Oh, and you too Amal. All the best...

DivaDebbi's First Template!
Valentino butterfly print dress, $3,560 / Christian Louboutin black heel shoes / Asprey bright handbag, $2,820 / Hermès hardware jewelry / Korres lip treatment, $14 / Chloé fragrance, $79 /
As a Polyvore member, we are able to create "templates". You can style the template in any way your heart desires and those elements are permanent. The fun aspect is using different fashion looks in the photos, ready-to-wear and accessories, to create completely different looking sets, based on your mood.
When I first made this template 8 months ago, I assumed it was just for my personal use, so that on days that I'm time pressed but have the urge to "Poly", I could still quickly create a set.
What I didn't realize was that DivaDebbi's First Template was also available for any other Polyvore member to style at their whim. Ohhhhhhhh....
I got used to it...eventually and to date, nearly 1000 people have used my template to create "their" own set.
Share and share alike...

Spring Ahead...Finally!
Despite the continued cold temperature, my spirit is still blooming looking at all the fabulous, fresh fashion at Richards in Greenwich. This month, I will celebrate my 14th anniversary as their Personal Shopper, working exclusively by appointment clients who prefer complete one-on-one attention.
To all my lovely, loyal clients and friends who have been with me for nearly 20 years in Greenwich, I think you know, you mean the world to me, and I have enjoyed every moment of assisting you and your families with seasonal wardrobes and milestone occasions.
Here's to many more...and of course, I always enjoy meeting new clients so if you have always thought you would like to work with a Personal Shopper or Stylist, call me! The beauty of having a relationship, is trust. It is my solemn mission to only sell you what fits you and your lifestyle and flatters you perfectly. (203-622-0551
203-622-0551). Why would we do less?Before each season everyone always asks me what are the major trends of the season?
It's always amazing how key colors and ideas find their way into every important collection. Here is how Spring 2014 took shape:

Designers the world over created dresses and ready-to-wear with ethnic prints in rich, saturated hues:

The allure of cool crisp shirting, showed up in many designers collections in dresses, over slim pants and pencil skirts:

 |

Lush blooms were featured prominently adding a dreamy feminine glam to many collections reminiscent of exotic locations:

An Original: London Fashion Week 2014
It doesn't matter a whit if this woman's ensemble, worn during London Fashion Week, was purchased at Top Shop or on Sloane Street.
The fact is, it is utterly original and charming.
Kudos, to women who have their own sense of style...
