By diane • Nov 6th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Flash

Today I am happily dragging my little tootsies out of bed. It’s a busy day for the Glam girls and me; we will be rocking the makeup tonight and tomorrow for some of the best shows of the weekend. Yesterday I got a sneak peek at the samples that Barneys will be showing [...]



Affordable Winter Coats

Right about now the rest of the country is unveiling and dusting off their cozy sweaters, winter coats, scarves and perhaps even gloves, yet “The Valley of the Sun” has remained the butt of some cruel joke that Mother Nature is getting her kicks out of. It’s 100 degrees, then it’s 68, then it’s [...]



Scottsdale Fashion Week - Spotlight Dillard’s

By diane • Nov 4th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Flash

Another crazy and fun-tastic week of fashion brew-ha, it seems that barely a week goes by lately that isn’t filled with store openings, fashion shows and events. H&M of course is opening it’s first store in town with the pre-opening party happening last night…can I say I felt as if I was in the [...]

In anticipation of finally having our very own H&M in the hood I just had to mention the goings on of late in both Tinseltown and The Big Apple. Last night Hollywood rolled out the red carpet in a star-studded party hosted by Tamara Mellon and Jeffrey Katzenberg, in support of The Motion Picture [...]

Hello Shopping fans, if you are of the persuasion that loves to linger at the mall and shop until you drop then Scottsdale Fashion Week is for you.

Local Fashion Finds

By diane • Oct 28th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Flash

After a recent conversation with a few fellow entrepreneurs I decided to give myself a little challenge – for the next few weeks I will change my boring routines and shop in locally owned businesses as much as possible. Last week when we celebrated the birthdays of two employees I decided to skip the [...]

There is nothing that gets me going more than a little fashion controversy, especially when it’s sparked by someone who should know better!   Please tell me you have seen the latest Ralph Lauren brew-ha, if not let me enlighten… Some genius at Ralph Lauren thought it would be fantastic idea to photoshop  an ad [...]



Scottsdale Fashion Square - Event Wrap Up!

Oh love, where do I begin?  The silly photos of moi with Simon Doonan and my other stylist pals, the Lanvin, Balenciaga or Demuelemeester….Or what about the rack of Zandra Rhodes?  I doubt half of the city has heard of Zandra but you must check her stuff out…she’s not for everyone but she’s that particular [...]



Scottsdale Fashion Square- Barneys and The Mannequin is Our Muse!

By diane • Oct 15th, 2009 • Category: Fashion Flash

Today is the day loves, what exactly does a girl wear to the Barneys ribbon cutting?  Let’s think about this, it is a store opening after all not a night at the Met’s Costume Gala Ball, but I suspect that loads of Scottsdale-ites are itching to don their finest this morning just to celebrate!
Maybe one [...]
