Have you heard? White is the new black. Ironic that while I’m writing that I’m wearing black, black, and more black. But I think it’s about time that we women banish the archaic style rules of only wearing white between Memorial Day and Labor Day. White for three months out...
So I’m happy to admit that I know very little about the fashion world, but that doesn’t mean I live under a rock, either. The New York Times, Huffington Post, ELLE, MC, and just about every other news source have been reporting the recent scandal of John Galliano’s anti-Semitic remarks....
Remember that super-epic 2002 movie “Catch Me If You Can,” complete with 60’s hairdos, sexy airplane pilots, and a handsome post-Titanic Leo DiCaprio? Well the true story of Frank Abagnale, Jr. was converted into a musical and premiered in Seattle in 2009. A week from today, the show hits Broadway....
