Fashion Icon:Cate Blanchett

Absolutely Breathtaking

Cate Blanchett is the Australian Academy Award winning actress who appeared in numerous Hollywood acclaim movies such as Elizabeth: The Golden age(she was amazing), The Lord of the Rings, The Aviator( she won an Academy Award in 2005) and Indian Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls. Besides being a brilliant actress of my generation, she continues to look stunning on the red carpet. She exudes sophistication and elegance. I would rock every piece in her closet because we both love over-the-top but yet understated garments. When she stepped on the red carpet, it's guaranteed a JDM(Jaw Dropping Moment)!

Best Divas Of The Week

Claudia Schiffer

Eva Herzigova

This week had to been one of the most exciting week for fashion. Everyone from the 65th Venice Film Festival left me gasping for air. I finally narrowed it down to these two stunning dresses. Claudia Schiffer wore her steel gray Alberta Ferretti one-shouldered gown almost looking flawless minus the hideous hair. Eva Herzigova wore her white strapless laced Valentino gown looking flawless from head to toe. Charlize Theron and Victoria Beckham were definitely in the running but I wanted to give other divas a chance!

My Fashion Icon Charlize Theron redeemed herself with this stunning metallic embellished Versace one-shouldered gown...Bravo!

"The Burning Plain" Photocall

Charlize Theron once again looks amazing in this fuchsia pleated Versace sheath dress! I am so happy she lost the hideous mullet hair she wore the night before.

Victoria Beckham Launches Her New Fragrance Signature


Victoria Beckham has never met a camera she did not like. Most people may say she has a toilet seat cover on her back but most people are not fabulous nor over- the -top as Victoria. She looks absolutely magnificent in this white Giambattista Valli sheath dress! I love this woman.

Bikes on the Commuter Rail

As I get ready to leave town on my bike for the holiday weekend, I thought I'd write a bit about our bike/train infrastructure.

If you're lucky your trip on the MBTA Commuter Rail will be glorious, thanks to the ample parking offered by the bike car. It is nice to see that they have both the wheel-mounted racks and also a smaller number of frame-mounted racks.




Note, however, that just because you're riding in the allowable off-peak hours doesn't mean you're ensured the bike car. If you don't get it, be prepared to watch over your bike! These bikes were rolling all over the place.

It was worse than this on my most recent trip, I think we had more than twenty bikes in a car meant to hold zero. Note to MBTA: it's a good idea to send the bike car on the train that goes closest to sundown. That's when the cyclists are likely to be ending their adventures and heading home. I hear the 2PM bike car was completely empty, but bikes were spilling into the aisles of my 7:30PM train.

What's black and white and zips all over?

Red Carpet Transformation:Eve

Red Carpet Glory

Simply Beautiful








Flawless make-up

Red Carpet Hot Mess!

Eve's transformation on the red carpet is definitely one of the greatest moments of fashion; it's almost right up there with the first black Italian Vogue issue. Eve has come a long way from being a former stripper and with rapper DMX crew the "Rough Riders". I am sure everyone of them are in jail by now. Eve was ghetto without the fabulous when she first stepped on the red carpet and then magically transform into this hot fashion diva. She was a staple in In-Style magazine rocking Alexander McQueen and all of the A- list designers. I still despise her hideous tatoos but I am extremely proud of Eve fashion choices and believe or not I loved her sitcom which I still watch the reruns on DVD(yes, I need a life)!
