Pretty in Pink – TOMMY HILFIGER Amanda Coat

February 5th, 2010 · Fashion

The online site doesn’t do this beautiful wool coat justice, but trust me – it’s fab. And it’s on sale! The gold buttons, tab sleeves and cowlneck collar make a unique and fashionable statement. The pink is brighter in person and makes a gorgeous entrance all season long. (It also comes in camel.)

As I keep saying, there’s plenty of winter left (for those who get winter, like us in the Northeast), so take advantage of those sales!

Stand out in a Sea of Black and Grey – a Winter Coat that Pops

January 28th, 2010 · Fashion, Outfit Ideas

Did you know that Nora Ephron’s mother told her never to buy a red coat? (Nora is the brilliant write of such screen plays as Julie & Julia, Silkwood, When Harry Met Sally, and more – and she states this fact in her book, “I Feel Bad About My Neck.” I love Nora – but her mother’s advice is wrong for today’s woman.

In fact, the next time you’re out on the town or in a restaurant, look around at the sea of gray, black, tan and navy winter coats. Don’t you want to be the one to light up the room when you walk in next time? It’s easy to do with a red – or other eye-popping color – winter coat. Now is a great time to buy them – most are on sale – and if you live in the Northeast like I do, you’ll have plenty of time to break it in this season before the spring fashions can move from runway to real world.

If you don’t have it in your budget to buy a new coat now, or simply can’t find one that you love, grab a large, colorful scarf instead. Make it an unexpected color, grab a great bag, bold earrings and some fabulous boots, and make all eyes brighten up – and on you – during these cold winter months.

My Favorite Golden Globes Gown 2010

January 19th, 2010 · Events, Fashion

It’s a toss up between Sandra Bullock’s Bottega Veneta orchid chiffon evening gown – bravo for wearing my favorite (and unique!) color – and Toni Collette’s shimmy, sparkly, fantastic number by Elie Saab. Not to mention that Sandra donated $1M to Haiti – what a classy woman.

Runner up: Penelope Cruz in Giorgio Armani Prive.

CNN has a fashionably beautiful recap in photos, here.

What was your fave and why?

Got the Gucci

January 8th, 2010 · Fashion, Handbags

Santa delivered! This bag is *huge* and it smells oh-so-good. The ole’ guy did a pretty good job in my book! A bit more subtle than my usual monogrammed Louis Vuittons.
