I had a very memorable brunch with Samantha Wills at Pastis in NYC a couple of years ago and walked away so impressed by her determination, passion and intelligence. With that amazing mane of hair, Jerry Hall smile – she looks like a Texan supermodel but she is actually an incredibly down to earth Aussie who’s working READ MORE…

All black everything today because I love my new sunglasses. They needed to be the stars. Did an actual dance in the office when these Ray-Ban Blue Mirrored Aviators (they arrive at Sunglass Hut in February) landed on my desk.

Looking at Georgia May Jagger, it’s impossible not to see glimpses of her famous parents. Mick and Jerry’s gene pool swirls around their third child like a halo. There are those lips, that golden mane of hair – she’s the very best blend of her parents’ charisma and good looks. Georgia is incredibly British. During her recent trip to READ MORE…

Swimsuit, sundress and a sundowner – Zimmermann is synonymous with long summer days, bikinis, perfect summer dresses and a cocktail to go with it. I’ve known Nicky and Simone (two of fashion’s true nice girls) since the very earliest days and watched as they’ve taken the label from local domination to global success. Much of the READ MORE…
