The Best Of Beauty 2009

The Best of Beauty for me in 2009 was the very powerful return of Francois Nars. With his return to backstage beauty for Marc Jacobs Fall 2009 Collection for Fashion Week, he has changed and elevated the beauty world. Nars has not done a show for more than ten years. His return is very inspiring and much needed. I have always had a profound respect for this Artist but I now have a much stronger respect! He is such a MAJOR Industry Leader! And he is the only man I think of when I need an orgasm...LOL! These are a few images that show his talent and genius ideas in beauty...XO

Lee Lee's Valise

When I was recently in Brooklyn(my first time ever, and definitely not my last), I ran into a wonderful boutique called Lee Lee's Valise at 368 Court St. The perfect setting in the most perfect neighbourhood. It was like I had found a gold mine. The accessories, the clothing, and the handbags were girly, one of a kind and fabulous! The boutique specializes in sizes 10-28 in every budget range for every lifestyle of every real woman. I had been looking everywhere for that special, one of a kind handbag in NYC. Running out of time and wondering the streets, I bumped into this store. I saw and purchased a beautiful, messenger style, black textured, leather bag with gold hardware and zippers, edgy and cool in a one of a kind way. I was so excited! To my surprise, the bag was made in Canada, specifically in Montreal by a company called Miss Mak. Unique and exceptional leather goods with interesting details that are rare and whimsical. If your ever in the Brooklyn area, I suggest you check out Lee Lee's Valise. It's the kind of boutique that makes you feel good inside and out with that warm Brooklyn feeling...

Bonham In Balthazar

I just got back from NYC late last night with friends. We stayed the entire weekend. What a blast! We shopped till we dropped and ate the best food ever. Yesterday afternoon, we had lunch at the ever so famous Balthazar(80 Spring Street). I ordered the Ham and Gruyere Cheese Sandwich. It was so delicious! Just as we were finishing our lunch, we realized that ten feet away, Helena Bonham Carter and her adorable son were finishing their lunch too and getting up to pay. What a sight! She looked disheveled and beautiful. Her hair twisted, unkept with her painted dark lips. Dressed in her usual all black, corky, and wacky style. I could not help but feel somewhat star struck. The day before, we were talking about how wonderful of an actor she is and how much we love her. So to see her the next day in the same restaurant was so cool! I had taken my camera out to capture the moment but I was quickly shot down by an employee. Totally understandable! It was a great way to end our stay. Never a dull moment in NYC...

Madonna And Penelope

These two seem quite friendly. This is not the first time Madonna and Penelope have been at a party together hanging out. The pair are seen here at Pedro Almodovar's dinner party at Casa Lever in New York.

"The Sock Man" NYC

I found this to be very funny. Marty Rosen owns a shop called "The Sock Man" on St. Marks Place in Manhattan. This place sells every imaginable type of socks, tights, leggings you have ever seen. Everything is crammed in with hundreds of different options. Apparently the owner is a very grumpy man. The service is not so nice labeling him as "The Sock Nazi". Next time I am in NYC, I must check out this place. I am sure it will be entertaining...
