Holiday 2018 – Suggestions
The problem with Holiday collections, ironically, is that by December the best pieces are sold out. Here is what I’ve bought for myself. For now, it’s a part 1.
The Price of Being an Instagramer
I’ve seen many phases of how the digital and internet revolutions have changed the value of images. So I want to speak up. It’s a controversial subject, but I wanted to share my point of view to the new (and young) people coming into the fold.

Post Glamour Winter
How does one reinvent glamour? That’s the question I’ve been grappling with. I am a big fan of glam, you know… Jerry Hall, Marilyn Monroe, Rita Hayworth, love them, been inspired, copied.
