Lucky Brand Holiday Press Preview


The fall/winter 2010 preview season is upon us, and you know that since weknow is always in the know (yes! pun intended) about the fashion world's latest happenings, you'll always know too! Our first stop: The Lucky Brand Jeans showroom!
Lucky Brand Jeans is a California born, designer denim apparel company known for the superior fit of their jeans and an easy to wear bohemian/vintage style. For the up-coming fall/holiday 2010 season, we were excited to see Lucky add some color and sparkle to their signature boho look! Inspiration this time around comes courtesy of the lumberjack in all of his plaid glory, and fashion's latest fixation - ethnic prints, with the Navajo Indian Tribe as muse. Everything from sweaters, to shoes, to jewelery, to sunglasses will receive a touch of Navajo magic. Even their brand new venture into loungewear did not escape the colorful and playful patterns. (We were particularly tickled by a bright pair of Navajo print undies, and vowed then and there that come fall, we'll be the first in line, purchasing them in bulk!) Apart from the usual denim, Lucky will also roll out jackets made with a heavy but smooth flannel material, guaranteed to keep everyone both snug and fashionable for the season. We saw sweaters and flannel jackets embellished with a bit o' bling from their accessory collection which will certainly add that holiday twinkle we all love. Their leather cuffs with brilliant, textured metal are also a novel and welcoming contrast when it comes to jewelery. Combining the smooth leather with shiny metal will appeal to the boho who wants a little flash, and the poser looking for something a little earthy. We like that - combining opposing elements to beckon the masses without straying from their true aesthetic! Lucky is also providing us with more to look at when it comes to their shoes. There's an adorable pair of warm, fuzzy moccasins which we think can be rocked both indoors and outdoors; leather booties with Navajo detail; and sunny colors that will neither offend nor shock the eyes, but lend a pleasant and complete look to any outfit.

Whether doing you're shopping at a Lucky store near you, or at one of the high-end department stores in which the brand is found, we think that everyone can find some exciting basic pieces to build a fun and fashionable wardrobe for the season.

Hats and Dandies and Veuve!! Oh My!!


On Sunday June 27th, the scorching sun and stifling heat could not stop patrons from attending the Veuve Cliquot's third annual Polo Classic Match, held on Governor's Island in NYC. The charity event once again helped raised money for American Friends of Sentebale, a charitable organization founded by Prince Harry of Wales, and Prince Seeiso of Lesotho, Both of whom are dedicated to helping and supporting the orphans and vulnerable children in the tiny land-locked African country of Lesotho.
Guests were treated to cocktails and a breathtaking panoramic view of the New York City skyline, and let’s not forget the Polo match featuring world class players. Unfortunately Prince Harry fell off his horse during the game, but the day was not lost as the event was for a good cause. Celebrity guest includes musician Rob Thomas, Gale King, Carol Alt, and Mary J. Blige. At an event such as this, hats are a must for true fashionistas. We certainly were able to catch sight of some of the unique and fashionable hats worn by many attendants. Here's a little taste of the event!

Carrera Escape heats up NYC again!



Carrera Sunglasses “Carrera Escape” event came to NYC, hosted this time at the SkyClub in the luxury apartment building 505 W37th Street. The two day event which began around 11 am on both days and ended about 1am, treated patrons to yoga in the morning, back massages and pedicures by Townhouse Spa, t-shirt screen printing done by Alternative Apparel, and make-up makeovers by Covergirl Cosmetics. Exclusive skincare brand Lancaster even had a cabana boy of sorts walking around offering guests a personal squirt and “rub-in” of his sunscreen. I guess the scorching sun wasn't the only thing heating up the event. Owwww!


Guests, which included folks from the fashion and music world, enjoyed the great music and complimentary refreshments well into the night making the Carrera Escape, once again, a fantastic summer party.


FYI, the Carrera brand of sunglasses are highly sought after by elite athletes and celebrities alike for their unique design and sporty appeal. Everyone from Usher to Rhianna to Lady Gaga have all donned Carrera's avant-garde styles in their music videos. And with most of their styles set under $150, everyone can be "Carrera Cool" this summer!
