Women Are Truly Their Own Worst Critics

Truly fascinating study involving a sketch artist and peoples' perceptions
of their own physical selves. 

I would be all, "you're going to need to back up if you intend to fit all this
hair on one page." I'm fairly certain my stranger friend would agree.


UPDATE
Now the hilarious male rebuttal to this video

Me, Last Night

 Upon finding out Grace's performance was cut to a quick montage 

on The Voice Battlerounds

Passed Hors D'oeuvres and Washboard Abs

With the lovely Darcy at yet another fun magazine party... stocked with shirtless 

male models with painted tees. We clearly hated it.

The Original DV

For all you creative types, this is a must see. We all know of Diana Vreeland, 

but this documentary truly encapsulates her essence and highlights the
indelible mark she made on the fashion world. An extraordinary tale of a true
creative visionary who lived and breathed style, elegance and imagination.

Capetown Happiness

It helps to have a professional photographer on vacation with you to 

capture great moments. A few shots of the group frolicking in and
around Capetown.

Summer Breeze

In trying to will warmer weather, I've purchased these graphic, Conde Nast
themed towels at One Kings Lane. 

Stay Classy, Colorado College

Ah yes. Kids from my alma mater doing the harlem shake on a Frontier flight. 

Thank god youtube-ing did not exist back in the day for our never-ending
idiocy to be documented.

Just back from Africa

What a life changing trip. So much to update the site with... but for now I'll leave you
with a few videos so that you can sense just how close the animals were to us during
the safari portion of our adventures in South Africa. Also, damn you Toto. Can't
seem to get your ditty out of my jet lagged head.

My Commute in a Nutshell

Except that the mariachi band would be playing directly into my ear. They truly have a homing device that seeks individuals with crippling hangovers.

Eclectic Art Deco Design

Working on invitation designs for a fall wedding with a unique theme 

and color palette. Mood Board plus quick layout.

The time is almost here

For the first big trips of 2013.... Caymans and Cuba. Leaving Friday for Caymans, 

although most excited to spend time in Cuba and to see it in all its

1950's time-warp glory before travel and trade barriers fall...before it 

becomes a new Sandals destination resort. And I plan to get down with

some late night cigars and cuban music. vamos a hacer esto!

Here's to a great NYE!

Spending the night with my favorite peeps...  Can't wait to ring
in the new year, yell in the streets, hug my doorman, drink champagne 

while chowing on 2am pizza and instigate a late night

dance party in my apartment. See you all in 2013!

White Christmas

Even though the storm came in late Christmas night, Memphis was hit 

with a sprinkling of snow... a total rarity for these parts. Was wonderful

to watch in the dark while sipping on a nightcap.

Happy Holidays to All

Can't believe that Christmas has come and gone so quickly... and that I'm already 

on the flight back to NYC. Hope everyone everywhere had a merry ole time.

 

Love this shot of the Chrysler Building on a foggy night

Christmas Gift Idea: Monogrammed Envelope Clutch

I am defenseless against a hot pink/hunter green/monogram combo. It 

really resonates with my inner preppy nerd. These clutches make great custom 

xmas gifts (and for only $40 a pop). Click here to see the full etsy 

shop and to choose color palette.

Typographic Treat

Beautiful lettering by Erin Marinovich

Bulb Bouquet

Love this DIY idea for making a holiday wedding bouquet 

out of glass, metallic ornaments.

More Askew Couture

Another outtake from this weekend's photoshoot. 

TCO Holiday Windows

It's hard not to brag about this year's Tiffany Holiday windows... 

I know the members of our creative visual merchandising team and their talent 

and dedication to creating jaw dropping displays is utterly inspiring. 

If you have the chance, make sure to swing by our flagship store on 5th ave

to take in this year's park avenue themed creations.
