I have never had anyone named after me, let alone a bra. So, when Empreinte launched the Ellen bra for winter 2021, I decided to believe that perhaps, I was the inspiration (even though I know this is completely false). So why the tall tale? Because the Empreinte brand emulates exactly who I strive to be; a lover of artistry, a purveyor of quality and a pursuer of intelligence. I’ve been following … Read More

I am quite awe struck by the talent I see, partial to strings and the piano.

Great Britain. It is a name on many minds this week as the Queen made her last journey from Scotland to London, where she lay in state as I write. Whatever your point of view on the concept of royalty, one can’t deny the unique impact of the British Monarchy on not only the British Isles but worldwide. There is just this aura that asks for our attention even though it may … Read More

We are pleased to welcome DKNY Lingerie to our Partner Spotlight. This brand, the progeny of the iconic Donna Karan design ethos, conjures a slew of wardrobe memories for me. (The famed wrap skirt is still in the line). Back in the 1980’s as my career was unfolding, Donna Karan’s fashion star was rising.
