Welcome Autumn

Summer has come and gone and Fashion Week is now a memory.  
As a native New Yorker, Autumn is my favorite season and I welcome it with open arms.  We send away the sticky days of summer, experience sunny days with cool breezes.
Here to help welcome Autumn is one of my favorites, Frank Sinatra.
What is your favorite season?

Fashion Week NYC Begins

So, the buzz is in the air as Fashion Week begins in New York City.  Everyone who is anyone and then some will be sitting either in the audience surrounding the numerous catwalks at the shows or walking them dressed in the height of fashion.
Fashion Week is taken so seriously and should be to some extent, but who can't remember the classic scene from Sex & The City when Carrie Bradshaw walks the catwalk in mile high stilettos only to fall and be referred to as "fashion roadkill" by her buddy Stanford.  Within seconds of Carrie's fall, even before she gets up, Heidi Klum launches into her strut and steps right over Carrie, only to have Carrie rise to the occasion and continue her strut as well minus one shoe, giving hope to us "regular" gals!!
