Oscars 2013, Bodice-Seam-Gate & Pit Crew Suggestions

 

Bodice-Seam-Gate

&

Pit Crew Suggestions

 

All the pretty people. All the pretty dresses. In my humble opinion, such perfection is exhausting to witness in such numbers, let alone comment on.

Kudos to the following designers for being the 'chosen ones' selected on Oscar night to have their dresses paraded on the red carpet before 1 billion eager fashion forward thinking viewers. Because let's own it girlfriend, - We (the morons who watched the ridiculously long winded 4 hour live telecast & 1 hour red carpet special) are way more into the dresses than the award speeches.

Jessica Chastain in Giorgio Armani

(I know I'm not going to win an award tonight, but in this dress, I don't even care.)

 

Amy Adams in Oscar de la Renta and Jennifer Lawrence in Dior Haute Couture

    

(Jennifer's Dress is from Dior's 'fall' collection, ha ha)

 

 Amanda Seyfried in Alexander McQueen

(As the gossip trail goes, Amanda's dress trumped Anne's.)

 

Anne Hathaway in Prada and Charlize Theron in Dior Haute Couture

         

(Thinking Anne really regrets her Prada selection - booby seams & she hurt dear Mr. Valentino's sensitive paternal feelings, pride- double ahem.)

 

Zoe Saldana in Alexis Mabille Couture

  (Dear Bradley, have fun going home with your mom tonight. Here's to all the losers, God bless them all - snaps.) 

 

Halle Berry in Versace and Stacy Keibler in Naeem Khan

     

(The heavy hitters.)

 

Nicole Kidman in L'Wren Scott and Sandra Bullock in Elie Saab

    

(These 2 working their 'Practical Magic'.)

 

Salma Hayek in Alexander McQueen
    

(Salma sporting the Westminister doggie face lift - poodle pouf.)

 

Catherine Zeta Jones in Zuhair Murad and Renee Zellweger in Carolina Herrera 

     
(Looks like sweet Renee might have missed her hair & makeup appointment)

In an awards show interview, Jennifer Lawrence referred to her 'beauty team' as 'The Pit Crew' - funny, very funny. So, I asked a few friends for their 'pit crew' suggestions and compiled this black book list for you. 

 

The Day Before:

Define Body & Mind (for a little tone-on-tone action)

Teeth Whitening by Dr. Tjoa - Brush

Facial - Brad, Michael Kemper Salon (hydrate, hydrate, hydrate)

Massage - Sanctuary Spa (sheer bliss)   

Air Brush Glow - Sanctuary Spa (a light morning glow not a blazing sunset)

Alterations - Ultra Design (last minute nip or release)

 

Event Day: 

Hair - Joel, Michael Kemper Salon (Anna Wintour goes to him when she's in town, shhh it's a secret, wink)

Makeup - Laura Mercier Counter, Neiman Marcus

Lashes - Amazing Lash Studio (ask for Tish)

 Mani/Pedi - Roxanne, Michael Kemper Salon

 

The Following Day:

 Goode Company Taqueria (the Migas chemically breaks down the lingering effects of the one-last-2-a.m.-cocktail, ugh)

Coronet Cleaners (chemically breaks down the mystery stain which was probably attributed to the one-last-2-a.m.-cocktail, double ugh.)

Kate And Her Amazing Snowballs

 

Kate And Her Amazing Snowballs

 

 

Last week when I was at the grocery store loading up on Valentine's candy for friends and loved ones, I spotted the Sports Illustrated: Swimsuit Edition 2013 cover featuring Kate Upton and her amazing snowballs. I glanced at the cover quickly, shuddered, blinked hard, and tried to pretend that 'said' glance had never happened. Then I did what any typical warm blooded woman my age would do - I reached for People Magazine.

People Magazine is my comfort zone. In fact, I have the People App downloaded on my phone to keep me updated on my celebrity news (gossip) even when I travel. The headline - How Kate Upton Got In Shape for Her Sports Illustrated Cover caught my attention, only slightly.

OK, whatever. I thought. I'll read yet another tedious article on how-to-get-a-flat-tummy-in-5-days-or-less-using-these-5-easy-at-home-steps.

Surprise . . . !

David Kirsch, Kate's trainer, (who must be a very motivating individual!), describes how he got Kate into snow queen shape.

"Kirsch began working with the supermodel back in August, and for the first 2 weeks, Upton met with him for sessions twice a day. From then on, the model exercised 5 to 6 days per week for 1 1/2 to 2 hours until the photo shoot in December.

Kate did boot camp circuit training mixed in with cardio. Running, rowing, and the eliptical. He adds that there are 6 regions a model needs to focus on for an SI: Swimsuit Edition shoot: Legs, inner thighs, hips, butt, abs and arms. Anything that shows when you're wearing a bathing suit. Which is . . . everything!

It wasn't just the constant sweat sessions that got Upton ready to strip down: she was also extremely careful about what she ate. She followed my ABC's - no alcohol, bread or processed carbs - and no sugar - 24/7 with no cheat days," the trainer reveals."

The truth of the matter is - Kate Upton looks incredible on the cover of SI  because she is one of the most physically motivated beauties in the world, Antarctica included! Kudos to Kate and her unrivaled tenacity to look and feel her best. Although the majority of us (normaltons) can (should) honestly admit to ourselves that our own personal icebergs have begun to melt and turn into mush, we can still feel motivated to try harder with our exercise and diet.

A few years ago, Indulge started selling swimsuits & beach cover ups out of my own personal necessity. Every spring, I would venture to the Galleria in hopes of procuring an appropriate swimsuit & beach cover up for my summer holiday to Harbour Island only to return home with yet another all season raincoat and sans swimsuit, ugh. Yes, I know, beachwear is a bit of a reach for a home decor store to sell, but why not - no other stores seem to be motivated to give swimwear a presence. In fact, Neiman Marcus doesn't even host a beachwear department any more. And one more curse, have you ever tried to order a swimsuit online, really?!? Nothing on earth could be more misrepresented - the model's 'bits' versus my 'bits' again, ugh.

For inspiration (and plagiarism), I turned to the fashion magazines & celebrities . . .

Following - Kate Middleton, Cameron Diaz, Gwyneth Paltrow, Beyonce, Kate Moss, Elle Macpherson, Cindy Crawford, Jessica Biel all featured in Melissa Odabash beachwear, United Kingdom.

 

Perfect timing - our first shipment of Melissa Odabash beachwear arrives Friday! Ahem, for those of you who live in the moment (denial), Spring Break begins in a few weeks, Mid March.

Not to worry, as the Brits would say - Keep Calm and Carry On. We have lots of gorgeous beach cover ups in the shipment!

And for those of you who are planning a ski-vay, don't forget your swimsuit for the apres ski hot tub, wink.

Hope my little green friend is careful in the hot tub, ha ha :-)

Forks Over Knives

 

 

I love New Year's Resolutions. I love the idea of committing to a notion and trying to stick with 'said' notion for a defined period of time.

Just to strengthen the resolve of 'said' notion, I make a point of blabbing my New Year's determination(s) to several friend's and family members for emotional support hence I stray from my self proclaimed notion/determination path.

I find that sharing my New Year's notion amongst close friends is also beneficial in a - "I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours."- grand gesture. I also try to remain open to the idea that someone (dear friend) might have a more relevant (better) resolution, and I could make a last minute adjustment (upgrade) before I commit to my final carved in soft stone resolution. My feeling (rational) is just because you didn't come up with the resolution yourself, doesn't make 'said' resolution upgrade any less personal or perfect. Following is a list of resolutions my friends have made for themselves this year and shared with me. Please feel free to borrow (upgrade) one if you feel so inclined. And remember, the best part of a New Year's Resolution is that you can actually start it whenever you are ready.

Get Into Excellent Shape

Eat Better

Get A Total Physical

No Alcohol. Well, Less Alcohol . . .

Socialize More

Wear More Color

Wear More Dresses

Purge My Closet

Only Wear Workout Clothes On Days That Actually Plan To Workout

 Stop Wearing Hair In Ponytail

Finish Decorating House

Be More Available To Family & Friends

Learn A Language

Take A Computer Class

Get a Job

Plan To Have A Dinner Party Every Month

Learn To Make A Really Great Vinaigrette Dressing

Read A Book A Month

Accept More Social Invitations

 

All in all, no one notion on the above 'said' New Year's Resolution list seems too difficult. And, I actually think you could combine a few resolutions together to make one really great resolution such as - get an overall physical, eat better and get into excellent shape. (Profoundly positive 3 part resolution actually came from my cousin Care, age 41.)

The grocery store tabloids play off our inner fat girl insecurities that we (always) need to lose weight. And, that at all times we should be thinking about losing weight. Which I think is totally ironic because stupid magazines with shaming weight loss message covers are displayed adjacent to candy/gum/sucrose checkout display.

 

     

Consider this - What if 'it' wasn't just about weight? What if overall health was our primary focus and concern?

 

 This glossy photo of Gwyneth touting her diet secrets caught my attention. 

 

People Magazine (page 34)

 

 Makes grocery shopping easy and quick when there are only 3 food groups on your pre-approved 'elimination diet' list, ahem. Stomach gurgle.

 

It's not that I want to lose weight as much as I just want to be as healthy as I can possibly be. With that mantra (healthy as I can possibly be) in mind, my dear cousin Care texted me to say that I have got to watch the movie 'Forks Over Knives'. The movie will completely change the way I think about food.

'Forks Over Knives'

Streamed on Netflix

 

The basic premise of the documentary is if you simply removed dairy, refined sugar and meat from your diet that you could add years to your life.

"Let Food be thy medicine." - Hippocrates

"The doctor of the future will no longer treat the human frame with drugs, but rather will cure and prevent disease with nutrition." - Thomas Edison

"He that takes medicine and neglects diet, wastes the time of his doctor." Chinese Proverb

I watched the movie with my husband, and we are both going to try to eat a more plant based diet. I have told at least 5 friends this week about the movie, and now I am writing to urge you to watch the movie also. The movie is 96 minutes long and is very insightful in regards to our health and the correlation of food / health (diabetes, coronary heart disease and cancer). Even if you are not open to making radical changes to your diet (at this time), at least the movie might make you think twice about which foods you choose to fill your grocery cart with.

FYI, I also take a multi vitamin . . . (purchased at Whole Foods)

All I Want For Christmas Is . . .

 

All I Want For Christmas Is My 2 Front Teeth . . . As If!

 

Every time I hear that silly song on the radio, I have to laugh inside because that kid was never me.  Who in their right mind would wish for teeth when you could wish for 'stuff'. And by 'stuff', I mean things that I would really want and would enjoy using.

Everyday my inbox is full of emails from highfalutin stores around the country touting their wonderous gift ideas for that someone special in your life. Out of curiousity (and a slight competitiveness) I open about 1/3 of the headers. Most of the emails are filled with the most random and obscure objects imaginable.

Personally, I would like to think that the gift I choose for someone is not only special but also useful. And, when it is used (hopefully often), 'said' someone-special-gift recipient will think happy thoughts and joy, joy, joy. Because isn't that the meaning of Christmas - spreading joy to loved ones and not cashing in on internet bargains, ahem.

Blanc d'Ivoire New In The Store, July 2012

 

Blanc d'Ivoire's Not-So-Basic . . . Basics!

 

This particular Blanc d'Ivoire shipment was unpacked in 2 parts because my buddies at Crowded House/Point 2 Point preferred to come 2 different afternoons instead of 1 whole tiresome day. So on Thursday, we (really the muscle guys) unpacked and set up the St. Tropez Collection, and Monday, we (again, the muscle guys) unpacked the not-so-basic. . . basics!

 

 

Jules Cabinet

Great for a play room, think of the 'creep' you could store (hide) or as a dresser (fantasy sock drawer) in a kid's room.

 

A Plethora of Dressers

 

Mona Dresser

We have only 2 available, don't hesitate. Love the lion drawer pulls.

 

Edgar Luggage Holder

A single luggage rack looks great at the end of a twin bed, or you can use 2 at the end of a queen. Every guest room should have a luggage rack; otherwise, your brother-in-law's dirty bedbug infested suitcase ends up on your beautiful Indulge bedding.

 

Gladis Side Table

Taller than most of the side tables we have in stock (Only 1 left!).

 

Paola Dresser

Same style dresser as last shipment but new color. (And yes, we have a pair!)

 

Philomene Dresser

With fancy matching tassle drawer pulls. (We have a pair!)

 

Lara Mirror

Patina coordinates with all the new dressers but, ahem, wouldn't it.

 

Romane Mirror

(Yes, that's me in the mirror, wink.)

 

Gladis Mirror GM

Chateau-ey in size and grandeur.

 

Edith Headboard in Twin, Claire Desk, Marine Side Table & Edgar Luggage Rack

My ideal of a young girl's bedroom.

(All pieces shown in pearle gray)

 

If your mini-princess would prefer a queen bed . . .

Claudia Headboard

 

Yuki Side Tables Grey

 

Paul Commode in Zinc Patina

 

Barbara Console

Ideal in length for a 'Great Room'

 

Gladis Mirror - PM

Love the zinc-like patina on this mirror, and how perfect the style & color looks with the pieces shown directly above. Again, well planned by moi.

 

Honore Side Table (distressed oak)

 

Roxanne Dresser & Arthur Sidetable

   

Unlike the overly grey behemoth chain store down the street from Indulge, every new-in-the-store item is actually in the store and available for purchase. What a novel concept these days, ahem. If I were you, I would go ahead and borrow your husband's Suburban for tomorrow just in case you find something in the new Blanc d'Ivoire Collection that you just can't exist without :-)

 

 See ya soon!

 

 

 

Cote d'Azur

 

Cote d'Azur

It is no secret amongst my family and friends that I love to travel. On my trip to the Cote d'Azur, I came to the startling realization that I am actually living vicariously through myself. It's as if I exist in some type of incredible John Malcovich work/luxury travel portal in which I get to travel to all these fabulous places in the world for work, and it (luxurious travel) is legitimately expected of me. And, I should even be doing it (luxurious traveling) more often than I do!

  After the Paris Show, we (Issac, my fun friend A, and moi) headed South to the infamous Cote d'Azur to check out Blanc d'Ivoire's new 5,000 sq ft flagship store in St. Tropez.

 Issac made the executive decision that we should stay in Eze because it was so centrally located to everything that we wanted to do on our, ahem, 'work' trip - Eze, Cap Ferrat, St.Tropez and Monaco! (I may own Indulge but Issac holds the esteemed title of 'V.P. of Travel'.)

 

The Village of Eze

 

Where We Stayed . . .

Domaine Pins Paul

 

Every afternoon, we drove 15 or so minutes to the beach for an afternoon swim/bob. Our 'local' beach just happened to be in the reluctantly super-trendy Cap Ferrat.

(Cap Ferrat was recently named the second most expensive residential location in the world. Can you guess number 1. . . ? If you're not sure, not to worry - we will get to number 1 later in the blog, patience.)

 

 Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat

Cap Ferrat was once the domain of King Leopold II of Belgium

(In the immortal words of Mel Brooks in his hit comedy History of the World, Part 1 - "It's good to be the king.")

 

 

Our Picturesque Beach Locale . . . 

 

 

 

I love the fact that you can order a bottle of champagne from your  beach chair, no problem, but you are on your own if you mistakenly drown.

Village of La Turbie

A short drive for dinner.

 

A l-o-n-g drive home after a glass or two of wine, very tricky roads. Very tricky, shudder.

 - - - - - -

Day 2

St. Tropez

 

 

Don't let the harbor of anchored super-yachts mislead you, we arrived by, ahem, . . .

. . . ferry.

 

 

 

Our legitimate 'work' purpose for going to St. Tropez - to visit the new 5,000 sq ft Blanc d'Ivoire flagship store.

'Oh, there are 2 BD stores on the island. The new flagship store is just down the street you say.

Could you please repeat the directions, again? Perhaps this time a little bit more slowly and, if possible, could you use a few more of those English words.' 

 

Joyfully Lost

 

Always Moules

 

I have observed over the years that it is very French to find some shade and take a respite after an arduous afternoon meal.

 

 

Even the beloved pets observe this classic of traditions.

     

 

At Last, Blanc d'Ivoire's New Flagship Store!

 

Actually, the new BD flagship store is quite easy to find if you don't ask for directions, ha ha.

 

Waiting for Brigitte Bardot to Pop Her Head Out.

 

 

Eze

(Just another ubiquitous 'work' photo of me taken infront of significant French vendor to substantiate business trip for tax purposes, wink.)

 

Beaulieu Sur Mer

Fun dinner at the African Queen

 

More Bol de Moules . . .

More to See in Picturesque Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat

      

The writer W. Somerset Maugham was quoted as describing CF as 'the escape hatch from Monaco for those burdened with taste.'

Drum roll, it is with great pleasure and satisfaction that I introduce the Blanc d'Ivoire Cote d'Azur Collection inspired by St. Tropez and plagiarised by moi.

June Linen Sale 2012

 

June Linen Sale 2012

If one more person whines to me, "I can't believe I didn't know about the not-so-secret-warehouse sale last month, no one told me . . ."

Well, I'm sorry.

I am universally sorry that you (overly guarded private person) have never signed up to be on our very protected and secure email address list.

And, I am equally sorry if you are on our fab email list but are too busy (snooty) to read an email from us.

Don't walk around with your head buried in the sand, like our little friend the twisted-neck-ostrich. My personal 'sale philosophy' is - If you tell a friend about a great sale 'ahead of time' (not after the fact!), the karma 'sale gods' will reward you with great savings (perhaps on something you actually wanted and might even need), wink.
