Intrigue or obscurity?

By now we have all seen the reverse crystal hoods featured in runway shows by Paris fashion house Maison Martin Margiela, and perhaps, like me, you may have wondered what they signify.  It is clear they are beautiful and interesting.  They certainly catch the eye and capture the imagination.  They also place an emphasis on the clothes and not the models, the body, and not the individual.  So, I ask, is this a western version of a burqa? Maybe.  Maybe I would like to wear one occasionally, however..... because..... Boston is a small town.

Moody Blues


I'm so happy I got my coat from MUUSE in time for this evening's forecast. A silk, one-shoulder dress from Pinkyotto and cobalt colored Brahmin bag complete my misty, monochrome ensemble. It is going to be a rainy night for a dinner party in the Back Bay..... but at least I can bring some sunshine with me in these moody blues.... also Moscato de Asti

I can never get enough Cavalli. This stunning suit in summery silk features this year's signature baroque theme and the 2013 Pantone Color of the Year: rich emerald.... Je veux!!!!
