Dinner Party with the “Original Supermodels”

September 23, 2017 No Comments

With New York Fashion Week in the books and London Fashion Week now in full swing, I decided to throw another one of my {imaginary} dinner parties. This time I’m inviting the original supermodels from my era, the 1990s. My guests include Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, and Tatjana Patitz. The new era of “supermodels” began in the 1990s, with the era-defining British Vogue cover of Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, and Tatjana Patitz. They embodied the term “supermodel”. Today, these five women are regarded as the “Original Supermodels” or as “The Big Five” […]

Have you ever had one of those moments where you’ve said to yourself, “I wish I had known this when I was in my 20s”? Or have you ever regretted not doing something, going somewhere, or buying something that you know you could have used when you were in your 20s? Well, I’ve put together a couple of lists for those millennials who are […]

Wanderlust Wednesday: Bali

September 13, 2017 No Comments

Since “Eat Pray Love” came out in 2010, starring Julia Roberts as author Elizabeth “Liz” Gilbert, I have wanderlusted over the Indonesian island of Bali. The beauty of this island, as Julia Roberts rode around on her bicycle, drew me in from the very beginning. In March of this year, Bali was named the world’s top travel destination by TripAdvisor in it’s Traveler’s choice award. “Bali is a living postcard, an Indonesian paradise that feels like a fantasy. Soak up the sun on a stretch of fine white sand, or commune with the tropical creatures as you dive along coral […]
