Setting the Mood: Hall Pass

By |September 1st, 2014|Setting the Mood|

fall fashion 2014Many of you have sung summer’s swan song with the commencement of Labor Day, but I would like to take an optimistic moment to point out that the official end of summer isn’t until September 23rd and if this Amazonian jungle like heat is any indication (don’t worry- the worst is coming), we have a few more weeks to revel in the sun.  As the city refills with co-eds and those who spent all summer out east and jet setting around the globe, it starts to feel a little bit like a reunion.  While I’m several years past returning to the classroom for another semester of mundane lectures and assignments I don’t understand, something about the beginning of September and the onset of Fashion Week festivities feels like the first day of school and trying to find a seat in the cafeteria without spilling your chocolate milk.  Fall in New York elicits an excitement that is both magical and anxiety inducing.  So, brace yourselves, ladies.  Class is in session.

Setting the Mood: The End Is Near

By |August 21st, 2012|Setting the Mood|

end of summerIt’s happening.  That subtle cooling of the summer air.  When I went to take Smitty out to stretch his morning legs the other day, there was a distinct difference in the breeze.  Gone was the suffocating stuffiness.  Instead I was greeted with a slightly chilled end of summer climate.  This only means one thing: fall is fast approaching.  So enjoy the last few weeks of strappy sundresses, easy espadrilles, and nearly nonexistent shorts, because very soon, we’ll be bundled up and longing for those steamy summer afternoons.
