Pound Rockout Workout.....A Drum Hit that gets you fit

Barry's Bootcamp Does A Body Good

I have heard that Barry's Bootcamp is one of the BEST workouts around!!!! They shock your body with interval training in a "nightclub like" atmosphere.  Each day of the week focuses on a different part of the body.  So, today, Wednesday is chest and abs,  Great!  Where do I sign up?

Inside of Fashion II

In between my factories I stop at local eateries, and my symphony fabric office to reenergize.  An easy coffee break is Dunkin Donuts on the corner of 36th and 8th ave in Manhattan.  However, Dunkin received a "B" rating..... so I will NOW trek several blocks north to Starbucks.

Dunkin you should be ashamed!  Luckily, I don't eat donughts.

Thanks Bloomberg!

Inside of Fashion

This is what a typical factory in New York's Garment center looks like. Before clothes make it to runways and stores, they start here.

And also here.  That pot in the lower right hand corner is a rice cooker....for lunch time.  Designers and production staff are frequently here to check patterns, samples and.....again for fit, until styles are correct.

                                       

                                         

Whitney Houston was a fashion great.....no one wore a dress like she did

  

                

        Sarah Jessica Parker wore a dress exactly like this in Sex and the City                   

I spent the weekend watching old Whitney music videos, and her fashion sense stood out just as much as her supermodel good looks and incredible voice.

                                                        

We'll Always Love You

                                                     

                       

The Girls of the Garden

               

What do you think of their personal style?  Do you approve of their version of "sporty chic?"

Thanks Bill Cunningham I love you more

That's me in the fur and yellow skinny jeans, in the lower left hand corner.  Bill, do you want to go for drinks or something....cause I can see us together!

Get the VBEAUTE "IT KIT" to have RADIANT SKIN

The "It Kit" is a gorgeous set of  skin products that will help your skin to look its most radiant.  Who doesn't want that??  I used it while skiing in Deer Valley last month and found my skin to be in top form for some Apres ski.

I like the "Buying Time" Everyday creme.  It hydrates really well, without feeling greasy.

Check out the entire line at vbeaute.com/index.php/products.html

No It's Not The Running Of The Bulls.... It's The Barney's Warehouse Sale

While the thought of people frantically running might make you think of Pamplona, and the running of the bulls; Pamplona this was not!  Instead I watched crowds of designer deprived adults push past one another for discounted goods.

Ladies, this is not the trading floor!  Why so aggressive?

As my second grade teacher Ms. Rhone would say "It's bedlam in here!"

This man is more civilized, he wore a suit....to go buy.....more suits.

Is this Club Barneys?

Club Barneys no longer welcomes perverts....look there is a curtain this year.... to block out "the perverts."
