Chevron Chic

I love a good chevron print. It's clean, classic, and plays well with others.  Here, my edit of

all things chevron chic!

Create a effortlessly cool tablescape 

by adding chevron to the mix. Perfect 

pieces: Pine Cone Hill Napkins, Gold

Chevron Glasses, and Chevron Dinnerware.

LOVE Nicholas Kirkwood's Zig Zag Pump

I don't think you can ever have too 

much chevron.  It never seems to overpower.

See the Gage Bedding here.  Create your

own design with chevron print fabric and

coordinating patterns in lots of colors

by the yard here.

Tuesday's Child: Trendy Tots

I remember when my life's mission

was to have the best dressed child

in town.  I shopped from coast to

coast in person and by phone. Heaven help me if I had the Internet to fuel my passion!

Here's whats trending for

your little ones.

Monnalisa's retro romantic prints are so

charming.  The above image is part of the "Pink Panther in Paris" collection. You can shop the styles at Alex and Alexa or Neiman Marcus.

I hear little boy fashion is hard to find.....

beyond a slopping tee shirt and baggy pants.

Try the Kitestrings line for classic but cool

choices for boys.

Hartstrings

For the tiniest bathing beauty. Love U Lots Swimsuit, Babiators Sunglasses & Nina Sandal for infants. 

Nordstrom's

Axel and Hudson is a golf inspired line

for little boys.  You'll adore the hat collection.

The Little King Boutique

One of the most fun and colorful collections
is from Dolce and Gabbana. It's also expensive
as you can imagine. Take a look at
Alex and Alexa

Lisa Perry Kids.  Mini me fashion of this

designer mod squad styles. So cute, colorful

and impossibly chic but child-like.

Barneys New York

Kate Mack's Seaside Set is Summerlicious.

It's just one of the designer lines featured 

at Everything But The Princess

For little and Big Boys.
Joseph Abboud will suit them up in style.
Nordstrom

Oscar de la Renta's children's line, like
his women's collection is never really trendy.
Classic clothing in today's colors and prints,
make for elevated style for children.
Oscar de la Renta

Roberto Cavalli for the sophisticated child.
Se he collection at Zappos Couture

And finally......Because a girl can go anywhere
in a tutu.....

Find this bright beauty and many other
styles of tutus and pettiskirts at

This came four months following the disappearance of his oldest son, Vittorio, in a private plane

 In honor of Mr. Missoni, here

are my fave finds featuring

the iconic Missoni Zig Zag.

The unmistaken and iconic

Zig Zag appears from clothing

to bedding, to the walls as a

high fashion status statement.

A Day For Mother's

"Motherhood has the greatest potential influence in human life. “Motherhood is the greatest potential influence either for good or ill in human life. The mother's image is the first that stamps itself on the unwritten page of the young child's mind. It is her caress 

that first awakens a sense of security; her kiss, the first realization of affection; her sympathy and tenderness, the first assurance that there is love in the world.” 

David O. McKay
