Cool enough for DKNY

Donna Karen has done it again. She has created clothes for Fall 2009 that are beautiful, grown-up, and simply classic. I loved the color palette this season: greens, reds, grays. Great wool fabrics in tweed, houndstooth, plaids. You'll definitely be nice and warm in these clothes while looking fabulous. She did a sexy pencil skirt that hits below the knee that I have to have. The short leather jacket is a no brainer - everyone must own that! Oh my God, the coat is a dream, but be careful wearing it if you're carrying some extra pounds as it could look shapeless on some. I may suggest belting it if you're a size 10 or more.

Sound check

I am so bored with the music that comes out of the majority of stores and boutiques these days. Everyone is playing Lady Gaga, Rihanna, or Jay-Z. Don't get me wrong those are a few of my favorite artists too, but how about a change of pace? I've decided to put on Fashion TV in my store. For those who don't know, Fashion TV is its own channel with non-stop fashion shows to music, and fashion entertainment. The models usually walk to trance and electronica music, which is what I'll be playing in my store... Something to view (other than clothes) and listen to!
