During my recent trip, Vogue and Coach hosted a holiday party at Coach's Flagship store on Madison Ave. How did I go to this party you may wonder. It was simple really, one of my favorite bloggers, The Manrepeller, was hosting and she invited her readers. I called, RSVPed, and then boom I'm drinking champagne in the company of Vogue big wigs. It was really quite something and all very exciting because I got to meet one of my style icons and super big time style blogger Leandra Medine. She was very sweet, admitted to me her obsession with redheads, and liked my southern accent and black, glittery manicure. To top it all off Coach gave everyone a custom monogrammed  hang tag for free (I chose baby-blue embossed with gold BB)!  Oh, and congrats to the Manrepeller who just announced her engagement! A true love is someone who doesn't care what you wear no matter how repelling (or fabulous) it is. Hear that boys!?!

Shame, Shame

Ever since I saw this preview last week, it has been haunting me. Not spooky, scary haunting me, more like it's always lingering in the back of my mind haunting me. I think the music has a lot to do with it. Even when it is presented as cold and depressing, New York is still so appealing. And not to mention sexy! NC-17 sexy!!!
