There is a power and force that works when you’re on the lookout…

I discovered this afresh yesterday while taking a quick jaunt through a favorite antiques and collectibles mall. I’ve been on the lookout for a gold wall piece. They are typically vintage and add just that perfect touch of glamour to a wall, are rare and hard to find.

Today was a perfect weather day in NYC, so in between meetings I wandered into several favorite stores.  Thought you’d enjoy a few sightings…

Bergdorf Goodman is celebrating their 111th Anniversary, and this one-of-a-kind hand-painted dress is part of an exquisite display that includes live orchids planted in rustic bamboo-like stalks on the ground and up around the crown moldings.  This dress is priced at $55,000 with a waiting list of potential buyers.  Hard to believe, but as someone who loves anything roses, I agree it’s stunning.

This Manolo Blahnik boot is even more beautiful in person, and for a mere $1,750 I chose to enjoy it by sight vs. by foot.

Maybe for those gifted in balancing while walking, or someone needing extra protection from dangerous animals (gives a whole new meaning to shooing away danger.)

The front entrance of St. Patrick’s Cathedral is undergoing renovation and is covered in scaffolding, but I caught this view from the back side on Madison Ave.  Never noticed before how beautiful the back is as well.  An architectural gem in the middle of the city.



The most important thing to remember is that you can wear all the greatest clothes and all the greatest shoes, but you’ve got to have a good spirit on the inside. That’s what’s really going to make you look like you’re ready to rock the world.
