There has been a lot of history in the media about the American Declaration of Independence this week and I am always in awe when I hear how this evolutionary and ultimately revolutionary event occurred. Even though I knew the basics, when I read the autobiography of John Adams by David McCullough several years ago, I was moved to another level of perception. A consortium of individuals, led by a … Read More

Sexy, feminine, & uniquely detailed, is this lingerie or swimwear? Perhaps it’s whatever you want it to be! With the boundaries becoming increasingly blurred between ready-to-wear, swimwear, loungewear & intimates I am using the Letarte Swimwear Trunk Show taking place at my store on Cape Cod this week as an opportunity to talk about a modern day phenomena that I refer to as pliant fashion.

With my feet tucked in the soft sand & summer temps finally settled in, it feels like a little vacation out here tonight. So on that note I am going to take a short break from the last 2 weeks of Q & A to talk about something a bit more risqué; corsets.

I am a bit late this week with my blog but things slow down in Cabo, and I just could not muster up the creative juices after arriving here Saturday. Once I had downed my customary first night Margarita and Green Chile Soup at the marina, I was already elsewhere and not in a computer state of mind. Sunday is my regular writing day, but the beach was beckoning after … Read More
