There dropping like flies… Socialites and Opportunist!

We’ve had a busy month at loosing some of the “rich girls” of society who got lucky by marrying the “right guys”. Leona Helmsley and Brooke Astor who both took their dead husband’s money to the next level. My kinda women. Leona obviously a survivor who after that big scandal about how she treated her staff, still continued to rule with her iron fisted face and talent for saving a penny. Unlike Leona. Brooke Astor ruled her organization with a short leash. But. Rivaled her benefactors with great scrutiny and decision making whenever contributing to their cause. Quite the management expert. All in all, Brooke Astor was always dressed to the nines upon appearance and presentation of herself. She really kept Paris and NYC couture designers afloat with all those expensive “Suits and Dresses”. She wore them all so well, back in the day. Leona Helmsley? Well. That’s another story. Though she always played it safe with her wardrobe. By no means was her style that of Brooke Astor. Yet. They both taught their counterparts and colleagues what a girl can do with a few bucks given the right opportunity.

Here’s the “schedule” for New York City’s, Fall 2007 Collections. Of course this is for Spring 2008 and it should prove to be a good one. Since a lot of our American designers are really cutting edge these with days, with their own stores, private collections, ready-to-wear lines, QVC and so on. The collections maybe still significant to sales and this collection should prove to be no different. So. Get in line for your viewing. Or. Do like lots do and sneak your way in. Whatever, however you get to partake. It’s never a bore. And yes! Don’t forget to bring your armor. The girls are getting more and more agreessive as I’ve been told. Thank God moi doesn’t have to deal with that bunch anymore. Have fun everyone and “….have a fashionable good time”.

Diamonds are Fashion’s Best Friend…PARIS knows about “Abazias”..!

What would the Oscars look like without diamonds? Or the Golden Globes? What would Hollywood be like without diamonds? How about Paris Hilton without diamonds? Ever wonder if fashion would be as hot if it weren’t for diamonds? Let’s face it, there is a reason diamonds are said to be a girl’s best friend – they are utterly versatile and go with any outfit.

Diamonds are so versatile that you see them in diamond-studded tiaras on the heads of princesses and debutatants. They can look just as good on a bride or a sweet sixteen. And, if you must go for the hip-hop or punk look, there’s definitely ways to add them to your wardrobe without looking like you’ve committed a fashion faux pas. Even men can wear them without giving up their macho elegance. You can put them in your teeth, on your purses, your shoes, your ears, around your neck, in your hair, and even on sewn into your gowns.

You just can’t do that with just any old fashion accessory. After all, when was the last time someone stuck a pearl in his or her teeth and made hip-hop history? Some things just aren’t stylish! Diamonds don’t have that problem. They go with any fashion scene out there. They pair well with other gems and always pump up any fashion. Wherever you go and whatever you choose to wear, there is a diamond accessory that can make your add the exclamation point to your personal style.
