Going Feline in 2010

I find felines among the most beautiful creatures on the planet. So this year is special to me cause 2010 is the year of the tiger. More reason for me to indulge in feline fashion! Animal prints are best when not overdone. Opt for one piece of clothing or an accessory but feel free to mix it with other statement pieces. Whether it’s leopard spots or tiger stripes, they are sure to spice up your outfit… meeeeeooowwww!!!

Yes, layer like a pro even in the summer for that chic, groovy look.  I put together a fun beachy outfit that will make many heads turn!

Put on a deep v-neck dress over a vibrant embroidered bikini (show off your gorgeous bikini top!), start layering some yummy accessories – wide belt (wear low on the waist… sexy) , beaded necklace, cowboy hat, aviator sunglasses and a lovely pair of platform wedges!  Top it off with an adorable crochet denim vest (unbuttoned).

As always, have fun layering by mixing & matching.  Now you are ready to hit the streets!

Dara Torres – Age is Just a Number

Posted by Sophie on May 22, 2009

Did you root for her during her swim competition in the 2008 Beijing Olympics?  I certainly did!  Dara Torres is a 42 year old Olympian and a mom.  I honestly had not heard of her before the last Olympics and was shocked to find out that she was competing at age 41 at that time!

She is the epitome of saying – age is just a number.  You really can look & feel healthy and beautiful at any age.  In fact, Dara has a better body than most 20 year old women… look at those abs, arms… what a fab bod!

Age is just a number. I hope women will get that out of this book, that age is a misconception. I am older and stronger, physically and mentally.

I haven’t read her new book yet, Age is Just a Number: Achieve Your Dreams At Any Stage In Your Life and can’t wait to get a hold of it here soon.  In this book, Dara shares her journey on dedication, determination and finding balance in her life while pursuing her dreams.  Dara will motivate you to take care of yourself both mentally and physically and believe in yourself to achieve your dreams at any stage in your life.  I find that very inspiring!

V Magazine Summer Swimsuit Issue

Posted by Sophie on May 5, 2009


Happy “Cinco De Mayo” everyone! I think I’ll have a little celebration with a Corona & lime tonight!  Have a safe & wonderful day!

V magazine showcased a summer swimsuit issue (V59) featuring the biggest models in the biz including 6 supermodels for the cover – Gisele Bundchen, Claudia Schiffer (in YSL cage bootie), Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Eva Herzigova, and Daria Werbowy.  This special issue wass photographed by Mario Testino.

There are some really HOT pics indeed… One of my favorite supermodels Kate Moss is wearing a huge blonde wig(?)…no it’s a Maison Martin Margiela jacket (spring 09)… too hairy for the summer, don’t you think?  LOL!

I like Daria’s cover (Versace swimsuit spring 09) the best.  My least favorite is Naomi’s Playboy style.  Which cover do you prefer?

The magazine should be on newsstands any time now.
