I tried it. I hate it. The Entrecard paid ad system reeks. I cancelled all paid ads on this blog and on Inspire Emotion, and will no longer accept them. Inspire Political Discourse has not and will not accept paid ads either.
From Georgio Armani's Autumn/Winter 2009-2010 Collection, shown recently in Milano, Italy. Très glam and sexy!
In order to preserve my very last nerve, and to get through the holidays unscathed, I am not going to be updating this blog for at least 2-3 months.
I won't go in to all the gory details, but suffice to say that something had to give, and that would be this blog as it consumes the most time when I do the posts that I believe are really relevant and useful to my readers.
I will continue to update Inspire Emotion (probably irregularly until after the holdidays), and Inspire Political Discourse. Please do visit me on those blogs, and be sure to check back in late February or early March for new posts on Modern Glam!
Meanwhile, thank you for all your support, and do have a wonderful holiday season, and a fabulous beginning to the new year!
xxo,
::I am very selective, some would say extremely picky, and thus, the gift selection that you see in this post is guaranteed to please any woman between the ages of 20 and 60. And if it doesn't.....well, don't blame me, I am choosy, not psychic. ;) Oh, and by the way, click on any image to enlarge.
:: No. 1 is a gorgeous, white hydrangea and magnolia cuff, embroidered with a charming mix of beads and thread, from Etsy seller, WaterRose. At $128, it's a steal, and a work of art, a future heirloom, and it promises to please your lady. Absolutely gorgeous.
:: No. 2 is a luxurious, silk and cashmere Pashmina scarf, in your choice of colors, currently on sale for $51 at Bloomingdale's online. Chic, functional, luxurious.
:: No. 3 is a luxurious, lined leather key pouch with nickel hardware by Marc Jacobs.The interior is fitted with a key ring/fob, and the pouch is also available in brown and black. Bloomingdale's online. Très chic, and functional.
:: No. 4 is a beautiful silk scarf from Belisi. Literally a choice of hundreds of prints and solids, in high-end silk with hand-rolled borders, all at fabulous prices. The scarf on the left is $25, and the scarf on the right is $32 Two of my fave's below.
:: No. 5 is a pair of black calf leather boots by Kenneth Cole. Great shape and heel height to wear with trousers or jeans, and on sale for $99.97 (they were $250!). Gotta luv a man who buys you a great pair of shoes or boots!
:: No. 6 is a lucite necklace or a lucite bangle by Alexis Bittar. The lucite glows with a sort of luminescence, and I love the soft look of the gold. The necklace is $135 and the bangles are $75 each. Available at Nordstrom online.Très trendy.
:: No. 7 is a fine silver and vintage photo hand-crafted bracelet by Etsy seller, Stacie Jewelry. A beautiful and unusual piece, destined to become an heirloom, and very nicely priced at $115.
:: No.8 is a fragrance set, 'Love' by Ralph Lauren. Like a poem in a bottle, roses, magnolia, and amber blend to create a beautiful fragrance that will delight you as much as it will please her. The set is available only at Neiman Marcus, and is priced at exactly $150.
::I love the look of boyfriend jeans for hanging about the house or grocery shopping, or any other very informal thing that we typically do in a day.
These jeans are by CurrentElliott, and they are très comfortable as well as looking rather casual chic [yep, I have a pair]. The layered look of the sweater and shirt is very now, and will also keep you warm when it's cold outside.
One caution. The model in the image actually has on sneakers, and I have one word to say re that --- DON'T. Wearing sneakers with this style of jean will make your legs look heavy, and will make you look shorter, neither of which is desirable, comprenez vous ? ;)

::A European aesthetic, with a uniquely American style, the men of Fall 2008.
Start with a leather jacket and a pair of trousers. Add a t-shirt, a sweater, or a guru collar shirt. Voila! Très manly chic. Armani Collezioni, available at Bergdorf Goodman.
