Getting on my fashion soap box for a minute, today. The topic? Why I strongly believe the terms “what’s in/what’s out” and fashion “do’s/dont’s” should be banished from all fashion vocabulary and rhetoric. These terms are constantly used in fashion mags, and fashion-devoted websites, and have irked me for years, so I’d just like to express, today,
Motherhood: The Secret to "Having it All"
My heart always does this massive accordion exercise whenever I look – really look – at, or think of my children. It swells so big, I can physically feel it pushing – testing that confinement of flesh-and-bone – in pure love, joy, and gratefulness that simply knows no bounds (comes with the mama territory!), and then it

A week or so ago I let everyone peek into my little trek through New York Fashion Week and what I wore to the sub-zero, nor-easterly concrete jungle that is Lincoln Center. This week, we’re trekking down the runway! Here’s my review of my favorite, the most talked about and most intriguing shows as of

We’ve enjoyed an unusually warm and gorgeous spring spell, but it’s been back to frigid degrees and snow this past week. Then

Winterize Me, Baby
It’s still winter, in case you forgot. My southern girl roots have grown deep in the thought that February brings Valentines day AND light jackets! Such a thesis, coupled with the fact that I am employed by an industry that works 6 months ahead and you’ll find me in a real conundrum every morning at
