Would You Do This For Chanel?
Now isn’t that a loaded question? I’ve often questioned my sanity when it comes to collecting Chanel (especially RTW), but I think what I did today surpassed even my own definition of crazy CRAZY. So back during the spring season of 2013, I was fixated on...
Runway Vs. Reality: 09P Jacket and 08A Skirt
I’m in the dreaded midst of unpacking so today’s entry is very brief–two Sundays’ worth of IG photos from the Runway Vs. Reality series. First, the 08A skirt that I’d featured before here: Then the 09P jacket, featured...
Field Of Dreams
Remember that Kevin Costner movie where the tag line was If you build it, he will come? Now I’m not a baseball fan but the movie has always resonated with me because I am a fan of the theory that if you believe in something so much in your heart, you have to...
The Road To Adoption: Vert Olive
Each time I’m about to update this series, I’m reminded of some family friends who fought the good fight for several years to adopt a little girl from China. Already in their 50s by the time they decided to make this commitment, they sacrificed a lot of...
Runway Vs. Reality: Paris-Dallas Jacket
Having grown up in Dallas it was quite a thrill for me to hear that Karl and his gang would be paying tribute to Big D during its 2014 Pre-Fall collection. While I loved the theatrical quality of the runway, it was actually a bit challenging to pick looks that...

Winter Wonderland
You would think that packing would be a cinch for me by now. I should be able to do it with my eyes closed, right? Well, generally that would be true. But for whatever silly reason, on this trip to NY I sorely underestimated the whims of Mother Nature–how she...
Runway Vs Reality: 13A Jacket
A few months ago on Instagram I started a series called “Runway Vs. Reality.” Each Sunday I would feature a Chanel item (mostly RTW) from my own closet that has been featured on the catwalk or some sort of celebrity runway. It’s challenging to find...
Spring Flash Sale
Before I get back to posting about my trip to NYC, I’ll do a quick fashion interruption here about a major closet cleaning I’m doing chez moi. Packages are arriving from my recent trip and I am a bit desperate for closet space. My road to adoption is also...
New Year, New York
2015 came much too quickly, and before I even survived Christmas (heck, Thanksgiving), the new year arrived and I was on another plane to another city. New year, New York I headed. With my metro card in hand and comfy sneakers on, I hit the ground running for a busy...
