Once upon a brunch our blog was born. A free-spirit, a fashionista, a writer and a life ninja sending thoughts and images out into the ether for anyone with an interest. Because life needs capturing, especially when you can't seem to get enough of it.

Fashion Week: Yigal Azrouël’s Cut25

Cut25, Yigal Azrouël’s relatively new, contemporary, more affordable line, presented at Fashion Week for the first time ever at the Highline Stages in the Meatpacking District. Thanks to an old friend of mine who is in charge of Cut25′s PR team, Mary and I had the privilege of attending Cut25′s Fashion Week presentation. And what...
Unintended Consequences

Unintended Consequences

This past Sunday there was a showing of Cut 25′s spring collection. It was like a fashion show but better, because the models kept looping around in a highly coordinated fashion (pun unintended=unintended consequence #1) so you could really catch all the details of the designs and capture some really great photos. (For really great...
Best Sushi in Manhattan - Sushi of Gari

Best Sushi in Manhattan – Sushi of Gari

So I have a few addictions. Christian Louboutin, fresh baked chocolate cookies, and last but definitely not least, Sushi of Gari. An avid sushi lover (I have pictures of me eating sushi circa 1993 at age 4, way before it become a major trend,) I have tried at the very least 100 sushi restaurants in...

Paper Flower Power?

Paper Flower Power?

I’m contemplating paper flower decorations. Since we’re keen on having a late summer/early fall wedding, I know that magnolia’s will not be in bloom. They are beautiful and symbolic of nobility, perseverance and love of nature. Unfortunately, magnolia’s season happens in late spring/early summer. Fortunately, that’s not a complete deal breaker. The alternate solution is...
My Fashion's Night Out 2011

My Fashion’s Night Out 2011

So I was really, really angry with Mayor Bloomberg last year when he decided to collaborate with FNO and schedule Fashion’s Night Out on Rosh Hashana, one of the Jewish High Holidays. You would think that as a fellow Jew, he would be considerate enough to include those who are observant, but he wasn’t… Thankfully,...
Insatiable Life: Tel Aviv, Shopping in Niveh Tzedek

Insatiable Life: Tel Aviv, Shopping in Niveh Tzedek

So one thing that I must admit about Israel is that the shopping is severely lacking. As in, I am a shopaholic and barely feel the need to buy anything while I’m there (key word: barely.) Over the years, I’ve found a few good stores which I return to whenever I need a fix. By...
