Hockey Mamas for Obama

by on Sep 22, 2008

This caught my digitally abused attention span. It came in a forwarded email delivered to my cyber doorstep, pictures and all… [The] Alaska Women Reject Palin rally was to be held outside on the lawn in front of the Loussac Library in midtown Anchorage . Home made signs were encouraged, and the idea was to [...]

Desiplex: A simple eco home (party like it’s 1899)

by on Sep 12, 2008

I want to talk to you folks about the term “living with less is living with more”. Our good friend Desiree lives in an apartment in Montreal and bikes to work, but not that long ago her summer abode was a simple eco home nestled away from the Lighthouse route on Nova Scotia’s south shore. [...]

Michelle Obama: Pretty In Pink

The jewel tones and soft chiffon layering soften her approach. Politically, this is a chic strategy,

HOT (eco) COATS

by on Aug 28, 2008

                    There is no doubt Sweden is still very cool and… … still very, very cold in the wintertime. I look to Sweden for trend innovations especially in the outerwear sector. My favorite pick is from Camilla Norrback. What a collar!

Fashion + Politics: Hillary Clinton “Sisterhood of the traveling pantsuits”

by on Aug 27, 2008

Watching the 2008 democratic convention in Denver, right before Hillary Clinton’s speech, I was amused to find CNN showing an earlier clip of a wardrobe lighting check with a robust man holding up four of the exact same boxy pleated pants suits in yellow, orange, red and blue. She chose orange. It seemed to contrast [...]

Ecofashion & Gardening: “You look like what you eat”

by on Aug 26, 2008

For the first time in years, this summer, I have been all about our garden but for the last decade, being a fashion/city girl, I never took much interest in gardening. I remember back to my childhood, rolling around in mulch, picking rhubarb and eating carrots straight out of the dirt. Now, having moved back [...]
