All About Anna (and Grace)


I went to see The September Issue tonight and it was nothing short of amazing.  There was definite craning at the screen, on my part, for the entire length of the film.  The Huffington likened  Anna to a pimp which is a synonym perfectly placed where, in the fashion world, she sells anybody or anything to anyone.  And while I've always been a fan of Grace Coddington, (this woman has styled some of my favourite Vogue editorials) this movie definitely sealed the deal.  Picking it up as soon as it hits dvd.

Heaven Sent



Pavé diamond and white gold ring

The other day I noticed this delicate knuckle ring on the hand of a woman who had the most amazing set of jeweled fingers.  She told me it was Garrard, available at Jeffrey and that sadly she had lost about five of the diamonds and had yet to get them replaced.  E-bay searching proved that there are many imitations, but nothing touches this original beauty from the Garrard Wings Collection.  The Knightrider Collection is worth looking at too.
