The Gift of Social Media Friendshps

For dear @divadebbi

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?

All Victoria, All the Time...

All Victoria, All the Time...

I am crazy about Victoria Beckham's crisp, linear, impeccable clothing, particularly her dresses and handbags.  Truly, I live vicariously not just through styling my clients, but my creating these Polyvore sets.

The set above is based on a "template" I created.  Basically what this means is that the set is permanent. What can change is the photo and fashion.  It was challenging to do, but not impossible as I imagined. Naturally I tweaked it 1000 times and 1000 more, even after this was published.

What that will allow me to is get in a quick fashion fix when I'm pressed for time. Though anyone can access my template, and I theirs, it always feels a bit like cheating, using someone elses framework.

So now I have my own.  Expect to see it often, in one way or another!

Divine!

Divine!

Divine! by divadebbi featuring a lip stick

Does this woman not look divine?  Half the fun of fashion week is seeing the artfully clad fashionista's who manage to combine vintage couture with thrift store finds to dazzling effect.

The other half, is my preference, women who stick to crisp, linear, nearly basic ensembles and accessorize them with great flourish. They stand head and shoulders above the pack, and make it all look effortless.

Divine...

Fall Trend: Black & Blue

Black & Blue

Black & Blue by divadebbi 


Our stellar buying team at Mitchells/Richards hosted a lovely breakfast trend meeting for us today.  They presented us to us their point of view of the strongest Fall trends in ready-to-wear and accessories with head to toe ensembles recreating the looks.

One that I am looking forward to wearing and selling is the "Black & Blue" trend.  It's so subtle and chic.  Look for it in prints and color blocks.  I am so on it (and in fact, was wearing it.)

Other trends that dominate are Plaids, Leather, Fur, Animal Prints, and the continuation of "studs" a la Valentino. Just a touch adds the perfect edge to many of the minimalist silhouettes that are also on trend.

Despite the heat outside, women who love fashion do shop early while the selection and sizes are most plentiful.  I'm already booking August appointments with clients and I know they will be as excited about the season as I am (203-622-0551).

Stay cool.
