Saturday, February 27th, 2010Hope all our dear readers are doing well this weekend. To our fellow New Yorkers, think we got enough snow? We’re guessing many of you are snuggled up indoors, not wanting to brave the dirty city snow and the crosswalk slush pools. So here is something to keep you occupied, while curled up with cup [...]
Zac Posen On 5th
Thursday, February 25th, 2010Finally, we can all afford some Zac Posen! Last night Zac launched his new lower priced line at Saks Fifth Avenue in NYC.

Fashion Bloggers Take Fashion Week
Thursday, February 18th, 2010In case you haven’t heard, fashion bloggers are the new “it” crowd. Of course with our recent fame comes the inevitable backlash. The now infamous Independent article slamming fashion bloggers as, “little more than mouthpieces for fashion brands” got destroyed in the blogesphere. Not only is this untrue, but we find it particularly annoying how [...]
Olympic Spirit?
Monday, February 15th, 2010In case you have any spare time during fashion week, you may have noticed the Winter Olympics are underway. Whether or not you enjoy watching these events, you no doubt are aware of the patriotism it evokes. This year that is particularly true for our neighbors to the north, who on Sunday finally won their 1st Canadian Gold Medal [...]
