Callanan designer profile in accessories the show

Managed to get a mug shot in Accessories magazine's August issue under designer profiles.http://www.busjour.com/ No, I am not naked in the photograph and I am not wearing blue contact lenses. We had a super ATS and increased sales 50% on last year. Maybe it was the fab new booth, or a recovering economy (last year was doom and gloom) or maybe old blue eyes worked his magic. We previewed spring 2011 and the response was very positive.

CHELSEA CLINTON'S BAD HAT DAY

Chelsea you either have no friends to advise you or they are giving you bad advise. Darling, I know you are anxious and not wanting to be hounded by the press but this hat is an attention getter. It screams "I am a crazy rich person off my meds" or "I am checking into rehab for a little med problem". I hope you did not pay money for this crappy hat as it looks like something a street vendor might sell. This cone shape is just not flattering. if you want to go incognito then better to wear some fab large black glasses a la Jackie and a tantalizing Callanan hat. Anyway doll, break a leg on your big day. You'll be swell but if you need a great Callanan hat for the honeymoon for yourself or Mark stop by RHINEBECK DEPARTMENT STORE on Main Street.

cashmere @ club Monaco


I have never quite "got" what Club Monaco is all about but as it's on my way home from Yogaworks I pop in now and then. Last night I popped in for a little air conditioning and ended up buying 2 delightful cashmere cardigans for 69.00, reduced from 269.00. Now thats my type of bargain. They have lovely sleeve cuff and side button details. I hate when I have to constantly pull the sleeves up but these have a super EURO-CHIC cut.
They also have a delightfully sexy hat for ladies on offer. I gave the lady pictured my professional opinion and she ended up buying it. I think she looks smashing in it.

The devil may wear Prada but Rabba Sara Hurwitz prefers to wear her Scala jockey cap style LW268-ASST, available nationwide in both Orthodox and non orthodox stores. No need to look dowdy when you can look angelic in pearls and a little lip gloss.
Check out her story at www.nymag.com. You go girl!!

BROOKLYN MUSEUM BROWN SPIDER EXHIBIT

Another reason not to go to Brooklyn (just joking).
My friend Rachel was bitten by a brown spider when we were walking the Brooklyn Museum on Sat., 10
Bad reaction on her leg. Was given antibiotics by her doctor the following day but her foot continued to swell and turn purple.

Admitted 7/14 to Beth Israel hospital on 16 th street, between 1 st and 2 nd Ave.
Doctors wanted to monitor infected area, give her a different set of drugs. They feel confident that they can take care of the infection.
And that once the infection and swelling goes down, they will release her.

In the meantime we had 2 bed bug infestations at a Hollister and Abercrombie and Fitch stores in NYC. I wonder if they came in a clothing shipment from China or were home grown terrorists.



Have a good day ! Stay away from spiders !
