Kaity by L'Agent by AP on Lingerie Briefs

When you live someplace, no matter how beautiful, life happens and paradise retreats to make room for day to day problems and the frustrations that seem to grow exponentially. Residing here semi-permanently changes perspective. Yes to beaches at our fingertips, margaritas on the sand, horseback riding daily and vistas that go on forever.

So, I am thrilled that Dita has been named as the hostess of this year’s Femmy Awards to be held February 2 at Ciprani’s in NYC.

In-Celebration-Of-The-10th-Anniversary-Of-The-Skull-Scarf,-Alexander-McQueen.

I came across this image of Alexander McQueen’s 10th anniversary celebratory skull scarf some time ago. I think that my daughter, a fine artist, sent it to me because of its creative collaboration with Damian Hirst. I have never been a pink person, or a lover of bugs, or for that matter into skulls. But this rendition of Mcqueen’s skull pattern, formed by 30 separate insect designs culled from … Read More
