It’s good to always have a Wishlist. Of course mine includes travel, well-being and mental health. Alas, I am susceptible to emails that include really good marketing gimmicks. Like the email blast from Cuyana that mentions this beautiful Alpaca reversible cape. I imagine myself wearing it, walking around Paris or New York, wearing over aContinue reading “My Current Wishlist”

Layering Up this Fall
The chill factor has officially set in today, it’s windy and cold. I had on a sweater for my morning walk this morning with the idea that I would eventually have to take it off once the walking was underway. No chance of that happening, it stayed cold and windy, even with the speed walking.Continue reading “Layering Up this Fall”
A Case For The Suede Handbag
It’s been a long time since I’ve admired suede handbags. But now, recently as of this morning, I am thinking about an unstructured suede handbag in a color that isn’t black. I mean, I know Mr. Santos and he can fix anything, so if I over wear it, he can make it come back toContinue reading “A Case For The Suede Handbag”
The Fall Coat
The fall coat is a basic essential that can elevate basic casual attire and conceal wardrobe sins. By wardrobe sins I mean concealing old beat up sweat pants, faded shirts past their prime and rolling out of bed to go out on a coffee run. Here we see Naomi Watts taking her dog out forContinue reading “The Fall Coat”
An Exciting Collection
I agonized over which new Basquiat Converse to order, I could eventually have them all, the price point is affordable, but I have a hard enough time wearing the sneakers I already own. However one can’t go wrong with either of the choices, they will all make an all black assemble pop. I ended upContinue reading “An Exciting Collection”
Fall Wardrobe Additions
Well it’s officially the first day of fall. I recently purchased a new fall coat I plan on wearing today, running errands in the city requires a more urban feel than the kaftans I’ve been wearing. I have plenty of outerwear but I like updating my wardrobe, there are always new pieces one can addContinue reading “Fall Wardrobe Additions”
More Scenes From Paris
This is Paris fashion week and I chose photos that are realistic, that are easily adaptable. Clothes that reflect style, good taste and glamour. I’m actually excited for the weekend, actually have an event planned and I’ll be able to test out some of my style options, to see if my vision works and doesn’tContinue reading “More Scenes From Paris”
Scenes From Milan
I prefer to see women wearing everyday clothes, women going about their day, expressing themselves. True style is about being remembered, not standing out in flamboyant fashion. Street style for me is far better than the runway. Street Style is the runway of life. I remember when I was in my early twenties and myContinue reading “Scenes From Milan”
Scenes from Paris
Some of us are dragging our feet during the transition from summer to fall, why? Because we have been cooped up inside the house for almost two years and didn’t get to really wear our summer clothes. Honestly, I have continued to update my wardrobe and have dresses I haven’t been able to wear. IContinue reading “Scenes from Paris”
Shopping The Look
This summer look is simple, yet chic. It proves that less is more. I’ve never been a big fan of summer and although I am not out every-night eating alfresco, I still don’t want summer to end. Perhaps having been in hibernation for close to two years, I’ve warmed up to the hotter weather. IContinue reading “Shopping The Look”
The Gold Statement Necklace
Fall will be here before we know it, the last bits of summer are almost gone. I’m a little sad about that, because I only took a 10 day vacation, and feel like I didn’t do enough to warrant wearing my summer kaftans. But I love fall, I prefer the cold to the heat andContinue reading “The Gold Statement Necklace”
Summer in Paris – Part Quatre
I love it, so many of us aren’t ready to let go of summer. Yet we are ready for fall too. It’s good to know that our fashion counter-parts in Paris are in the same frame of mind. I recently started wearing my dresses with sneakers, and I’m glad I’m not alone. I must haveContinue reading “Summer in Paris – Part Quatre”
Preparing for Fall
I know that I’m not ready to let Summer go, but at the same time I am looking forward to refreshing my Fall/Winter wardrobe. I made a few purchases, that I am very pleased with. I can wear the COS wool dress with leggings, booties or sneakers and a long sleeved T-shirt underneath, I likeContinue reading “Preparing for Fall”
Summer Isn’t Over, Yet…..
I’m just not ready to let go of Summer, yet. I had a nice vacation, falling asleep to the sound of the Pacific Ocean and waking-up organically. I went as far as to buy kaftans at Blue Ginger and now find myself a few days later, wearing kaftans around the house. I also remembered thatContinue reading “Summer Isn’t Over, Yet…..”
Style Profile: Denisse Kuri, Fashion Designer
There was a time when I traveled to Mexico once a year, as a child it was to Muzquiz, Coahuila and Acuna, Coahuila to visit family. As I matured, I visited other parts of Mexico, Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, DF and Guadalajara. I love Mexico and I always brought back Mexican dresses and blouses, that IContinue reading “Style Profile: Denisse Kuri, Fashion Designer”
