A Vespa to Match...

I was walking down W. 10th Street this morning admiring all of the gorgeous townhouses and spotted this lovely abode with light teal shutters and a matching Vespa to boot! I felt a tad like a stalker as I tried to catch some photos, but hopefully you get the effect...

Style Icon: Linda Fargo

The New York Times wrote an article yesterday on the talented window dressing team at Bergdorf Goodman which includes style maven and BG VP Linda Fargo. Easily recognizable by her striking silver bob, she is always impeccably dressed and proves that you can still dress fiercely after 50!

Loving leopard...

Rocking the Aviators and chic neutrals.

Chic, chic, chic!

Twist on the classic pants-suit...love the shorts suit and black/white!

You can check out the New York Times article and more on Bergdorf's windows here. The countdown to Holiday Windows is on!

Just Because: Juliska "Bamboo" Dinnerware

I love the playfulness of the bamboo dinnerware line by Juliska. It is perfect for every day, but would also look great mixed and matched with some of your finer china for a more formal dinner party.

Weekly TENS: 11.5.10

Weekly TENS: A compilation of my favorite posts and finds of the week!

This has been an insane week from work and class to fighting off a cold and hosting a dinner party all while trying to catch up on some much needed sleep. As a result my poor little blog has been majorly neglected!! I promise to be better next week and hope you enjoy a recap of all the posts I sadly missed this week as well...Have a great weekend!

One of my favorite designers Madeline Weinrib was interviewed for Lonny Mag's blog. I absolutely adore her ikat throw pillows, sumptuous silks and of course her beautiful carpets (a personal fave is above, black and white = so chic!).

I will be testing out this hair "how-to" this weekend. A side-chignon will definitely outdo my boring ponytail! Plus how great is her hair color?? I may need to punch mine up a bit!

14 bathrooms that made me swoon...and then realize how blah mine was...a girl can dream!

You can always count on A Lovely Being to post beautiful, off the beaten path images of interesting and historical figures. JFK with "John John" and Caroline in the Oval Office on Halloween was one of her best!

I saw a couple bloggers post on clothing designer Emerson Made this week and can see why - her clothes are feminine, practical and sure to up everyone's "fabulous" factor! Plus, they have great giveaways - don't miss out! (A few of my fave looks are above)

Everything truly is going digital - artist David Hockney is currently showing a series of i-paintings (painted solely on his iPad and iPhone) at The Fondation Pierre Bergé-Yves Saint Laurent in Paris. Maybe my "masterpieces" have a shot of being shown some day too!
