Let it be known that I have always wanted to be a COVERGIRL. I used to sit in front of my mirror, practicing for my big moment, so when the brand asked me to be their correspondent at their New York-based party with Style Coalition, I naturally jumped at the chance! Because, let’s face it: [ Read More ]
You KNOW how I feel about all things Donna Karan, particularly the New York City-inspired DKNY, a DNA line for the brand that basically is filled with essentials for the modern wardrobe. Truth be told, I loved the brand so much that I’ve started pitch-hitting writing for them every now and then. That’s right: I [ Read More ]
Gals, if you’ve been reading this site, you know that I have a soft spot in my heart for the designing wunderkind Christian Siriano. As a matter of fact, I will report that he was my first invitation I ever received for Fashion.Style.Beauty. I will be forever excited to see what he does. When I [ Read More ]
I was actually backstage for the Kate Spade New York presentation, so I got a chance to see the hair and makeup looks before they went out.

Leave it to Lancôme to create an amazing beauty look. Here’s how they got it: Makeup Artists: Lancome [ Read More ]
I had a chance to speak with designer Monika Chiang at her inaugural presentation, where I feel madly in love with every pair of shoes the woman designed. As in, the woman has never designed an accessory that hasn’t made me positively apoplectic with joy. This season, inspired by a recurring theme of flight and [ Read More ]
Lingerie presentations are always fun, particularly if they’re thrown as a party instead of just a presentation. When I arrived at the Dream Downtown hotel to see the La Perla presentation, it was just what you expect: all the women there are interested in the fashion and lingerie, all the men are interested in picking [ Read More ]
The beauty look for La Perla Collection was created by one of my favorite beauty lines, Hourglass Cosmetics. If you’re not familiar with the brand, I strongly encourage you to get into it. Based on the concept of makeup that benefits the skin no matter how far along in age you may be, it’s makeup [ Read More ]
I arrived backstage at Kate Spade New York after schlepping through what shall now be known as the Epic Snow Journey Through Fashion Week. I walked over, carrying a huge bag of products (I went to get my packages that arrive each week at my mail delivery service…don’t ask) and was covered in snow. But [ Read More ]
