New Year's Eve outfit #2



So tomorrow night I'm going to be hitting up Susanne Bartsch's New Year's Eve party at the Delano Hotel in South Beach, Miami. I honestly thought I'd be spending NYE quietly with my girlfriend and our dog and brought nothing down here appropriate to wear! (of course I hit the stores today!) Anyways this Lis.B Jumper by designer Betina Holte is what I'd wear if I owned it. It's sleek and sexy but super comfortable which means dancefloor friendly! And I think Katy looks amazing in it! This is from our shoot at EVA NY one of my favorite boutiques in New York. It's curated by genius Stephanie Pappas and is really all about upcoming and edgy designers.

A Personal Message and Inspiration for 2011

Have you ever felt like you belonged on the "island of misfit toys"? Well, I have... I was at dinner last night with two great friends, and they were telling me about the high-school reunion that I recently missed. The truth is, I actually went to one school from 1st-9th, another for 10th and 11th, and we moved to a different city for my Senior year, thus a third school. So, which school class reunion am I supposed to attend? If you have really read this far, I promise there is a point to my story.
For a brief moment at dinner last night, I did feel sorry for myself, feeling like I did not belong to one certain group. Then, I snapped out of it. Don't get me wrong, I am very grateful for all of my friends and experiences I have encountered along the way. But, I am a firm believer of living in the present. I am 43 years old, and last year I would have told you that 2009 was the best year of my life. However, now that we have come to the end of 2010, I would say that this year has been even better.
So to all of you ~ If you are not doing what you love, change your ways.
If there is a hobby you want to try ~ try it!
Dream...
Imagine...
Believe in Yourself
Cherish your family and friends
Live, Laugh, and most certainly Love

Here is to being grateful for our past, and looking ahead to 2011!
I hope you will join me here each and every day on Bright Bold and Beautiful.

New Year's Eve dress #1



In addition to being able to find so many people with great style to photograph in the city the other thing I love in NYC are all the smaller boutiques around town with designers you don't necessarily find elsewhere. I got together with Katy, a blogger who writes about food and fashion on  Sugarlaws and stopped by Honey in the Rough on the Lower East Side for a little photoshoot.  We decided to put together looks that are perfect New Year's Eve or other parties. In these photos Katy is wearing the following:
Dress: "Lurex Paisley Print Dress"
  Designer: Thread Social
  Origin: New York
  Martierial: Lurex and Silk

Necklace: "Queen Fringe Necklace"
  Designer: Iosselliani
  Origin: Rome, Italy
  Material: 18k Gold Plating, Gunmetal Plating, Sterling Silver

Bracelet: "Gold Twist Bracelet"
  Designer: Iosselliani
  Origin: Rome, Italy
  Material: 18k Gold Plating, Sterling Silver, Swarovski Crystals
I love how boutiques curate their collections and we had alot of fun going to a few different stores. Tomorrow I'll show you something completely different from EVA NY.

Bright Ideas: Creative Work Spaces and Organizing Tips

With the coming of a New Year, I am always inspired to clear out the clutter, and organize! Just remember this tip: There is a place for everything. Create your
own work space filled with character and imagination, the sky is the limit...
What are your organizing tips?
Hey ~ I have this same IKEA trestle desk in my art studio!
