Puffed Up Backdrop
Anyone that knows me knows I love a great view in my pictures and videos. I’m in quarantine mode now so, I find myself doing a lot of FaceTime, zoom and selfies with the same boring background.

What’s in your bag?
When I was younger my bag used to be full. It would take me over an hour just to switch purses. As I grew older I found things very unnecessary to carry. Above you’ll see everything in my bag. I can switch bags in minutes. I’ve noticed some of my single and married friends with children or without children have so much in their bag. Here’s the question of the day what’s in your bag and is everything in your bag necessary? P.S. Handbags go on sell next week 2/14/16 “In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different.” – Coco Chanel

PS if you can’t afford that expensive Pantone color book like myself, you can always go to the Benjamin Moore and pay $25 for their color samples book they look just the same. “One is never over-dressed or underdressed with a Little Black Dress.” – Karl Lagerfeld

Favorite Fashion Book
I’ve always been a fashion book connoisseur. I love to flip the pages and just visualize what a designer was thinking when they designed a piece. I also like hearing how a designer became a icon. That’s probably why I always look to Icons of Fashion: The 20th Century by, Gerda Buxbaum. Hearing about the education of a designer and that hard work made them an icon. I never really had a favorite book until Fashion Designers A-Z, the Diane Von Furstenberg edition by, Valerie Steele & Suzy Menkes. I wish I could afford every edition because all covers look so amazing. What’s your favorite fashion book? “I like being…

Can Guest Wear White?
I was watching The Real Housewives of NY and there was some big talk about Ramona & Alex wearing white to the wedding. What do you think can guest wear white to a wedding? I don’t think so maybe old fashion but I think it should just be the bride. Tell me yes or no wearing white to a wedding? What would you do if your guest showed up in white? Side Note: The illustration is one of my plus size designs coming soon.
