Rags to Riches...

... Perhaps I won't get my hair chopped.

Absolutely gorgeous!!! And OK, maybe not rags to riches, but the bob was looking a bit straggly and undefined. I had to post this since it caught my attention more than most posts I've seen today. Embrace the change! It's good for all of us once in a while.

Bittersweet When it's Out With the Old...

NYC winters bring out some of the best individualistic styles. The frigid air calls for layering and some funky, sweet materpeices. However, the high boots and long peacoats can only do the job for so long.

I will be sad to see this look go once the hot weather hits... however...

After I feel the real spring air, I'll be searching for a lot less legging and a lot more leg. . .

Natale's Hot Spring Images 2009



Black is eternally my color. I love a bright, standout outfit, but it can be said that black can look as springy as anything else, if worn the right way. So... since I will be storing my warmer winter black pieces, I realize my sudden urge to replace them with these rad spring '09 TopShop pieces.
Something to look forward to..? Paycheck, where are you?!

Hope everyone enjoys a Happy St. Patty's Day!

I was covering this event for a long-time friend's website, Fame Game. Although I was supposed to be the photographer for the night, it seems I got in just as many pictures as I took ;) It was the first time Roberta and I met after attending some of her events, so we were excited to finally meet.. And therefore managed to sneak in a few pictures together, compliments of Brian.


If you're in the NYC area, take a look at some of the events hosted by dateinthecity. Roberta is very active with her shows and tries to not only attend, but sponsor as many of these events as possible. It is always for a great cause and if you are looking to do something productively active, it is a unique networking tool!
