The Bohemian Shawl

surfknitta

My handknit Bohemian Shawls are currently on-sale in Bronxville, NY, at Toney Toni and the gang. Look for the Surfknitta label.

Still to EARLy for these?

Maybe once EARL blows through, some cooler temps will follow suit. Patience...patience...

Throw-away Chic

The straw Fedora is EVERYWHERE this summer, and on EVERYONE. In the city, you can find a ridiculous selection of the straw hats being sold by street vendors for $10. For 10 bucks, I'll give it a whirl.

For more inspiration, view the On the Street video from Bill Cunningham at the New York Times (it's a permalink, so you'll need to cut-and-paste the old-skool way): http://video.nytimes.com/video/2010/07/23/style/1247468500405/on-the-street-tiptop.html

Whatever floats your boat...

31 Days of Oscar

Tonight marks the start of TCM's 31 Days of Oscar, and they're kicking it off with FUNNY GIRL starring Barbara Streisand. Streisand received her very first Oscar for her role depicting real-life character Fanny Brice. Gossip Girl? Faggheddaboutit...watch FUNNY GIRL for the amazing, eternally-classic songs and 5-star level of entertainment your TV diet is severely lacking!

Peace in 2010

Happy New Year everyone.

Joan of Arctic

Tomorrow's forecast calls for temps in the 30's with "ice pellets" and snow here in the NY area...bring it on! Ankle-deep slush puddles in the city - ha! They're no match for my new Joan of Arctic Sorel's, which were waiting for me under the Christmas Tree a few days back. Dare I say that I'm a little bummed by today's sunny weather and dry sidewalks? Let see what Mother Nature will dish out tomorrow!
