The Glamourous New York City Gals' DO's and DONT'S for Not Getting Away this Summer.
Staycation. (Stay - ka'- shun) generally means a vacation spent close to home. It doesn't mean you stay right in your home, but it means you stay close to home. (in fact, pretty darn close to home).
As my dear friend Donald Trump used to say repeatedly, even running a full-page ad in New York Times one year in the late 80's stating, "New York City is for the people who pay to live here. So, if you can't afford to live here.. LEAVE." (READ ON)

and I was sooo hoping to make his "Best Dressed List" this year...
Well, folks, a long and fully fashionable life came to an end earlier this week, with the passing of Mr. Blackwell. He was 86.
His legacy of who was "Best Dressed" and who was "Worst Dressed" has an iconic ring to those of us who obsess about what the truly fabulous do with their fabulous-ness. Consequently, the serious notion of actually compiling a list of people, based solely around the hollow principle of how they dress, in a cumulative way, or at a given event, was made popular by Mr. Blackwell. What followed? : (READ ON)
