New York Fashion Week

New York: Fall Fashion Week!

Last week, New York was getting ready for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week.  I was hanging out in the garment district, watching gorgeous models descend and converge, and guys hauling huge bins of almost-ready-to-wears from point A to point B across 8th Ave when I snapped this cool picture.

The Book Arrived Today!!

I've wanted this book for so long, you'd think that I'd already have it but, today was the day.  It arrived.  I am so excited!!  A large, plain white box came in the mail.

And then there it was: better than described!  A gorgeous hardback with it's original dust-jacket in awesome condition, containing 18 full corset patterns!  I literally wanted to jump up & down with glee!

I can't wait to blow them up to size, mock them up, sew them up and wear them all out.  OH, I am so in love with this book!!

New York, New York

Good friends and I caught the MetroNorth down to Grand Central to visit NYC for the day.

We ate out at Yummy Sushi, hung at Babeland and CharmingWall.  We went to Deco Jewels in Soho and met Ms. Berkson, author of Carry Me! I can't wait to go back!
