Media Blitz on the Khans!
Lately, whatever publication I pick up seems to be courting the Khans,
which is wonderful, because fashion bloggers can find more material to cover.
I especially enjoyed the short and sweet article in the 2010 Spring/Summer issue of "Town & Country." (Weddings)
Here's another one I found on the web, "The Huffington Post."(2009)
Click on the tabs and arrows to see which celebrities have worn his designs.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/25/naeem-khan-michelle-obama_n_370721.
There were countless other publications, and when the pages fell open, it
was always about Naeem Khan. I guess I have a novel way of figuring out
what I am going to write about next on this blog.
You can also access his site on the internet.
www.naeemkhan.com
Right now, I am going to read about Naeem in the page that fell open yesterday in the "Travel & Leisure" issue. (March 2010)
I am not kidding!
Okay, ciao!

Got Style?
People with a strong sense of style command a presence all their own.
Yes, we look to Coco Chanel, Her Serene Highness, Princess Grace, Jackie O., and even her sister, Lee Radziwill. These people have an ambience and an allure that captivated an entire planet. (Others: Katharine Hepburn, Babe Paley...Vivien Leigh, etc.)
Today, I peruse magazine ads and photography, and the ones that resonate with me, and the people who represent the companies, resonate deeply with the public for a reason. This connection is not always delineated concretely on our spreadsheets, or even in our daily fashion - related investments. You know, however, that this style endures.
For instance, I gravitate toward a certain ad or company, because they have an unmistakable style or mystique that cannot always be described. Have you ever been able to pass over a Cartier ad without stopping to study it? The tiffany ads also speak poetically and candidly. A more recent representative of style is that of Rachel Zoe. Her style definitely emanates in her creations that she offers to the public.
For that reason, I still can't do without my tangible magazine subscriptions.
There is always something new and constant revisits from all our favorites from the past. People such as Ivanka Trump and Martha Stewart all have a sense of style. They have to portray or carry an image, but their sense of style binds them together with the public that they serve.
Today, if you are pondering about developing a sense of style, or even presenting your own, pay a visit to the following site:
http://www.harpersbazaar.com (Hearst)
Online is a chance for you to present your style and share it with people around you. This is an investment of your time and interests that may not disappoint. Click on the contest guidelines and participate.
If you are a photographer, you may want to read April's issue of "Town & Country," and show your representation of style.
Hearst Corporation is scouting for outstanding photographers for the future.
And yes! The contest is presented in an ad.
Examples of Style: Men & Women

Christmas Magic!
Have you ever found a single enlightened moment within a busy holiday
season? This Christmas time, I wish all readers here time to pause and reflect
on the wonder and majesty of the season. In the stillness, there is still a hidden aspect of wonder inside all of our hearts.
Some find it in the beauty that surrounds. Others crave the relationships and friendships that are found, re-ignited, or friends love to form reunions, but all have to admit there is something in this season that is redolent of a time that is unmistakable as the gift that speaks to each of us.
I have thought of two times: Once when I was an angel in a nativity scene in a compound for nurses, doctors, and their families and the other while I was in a line to kiss the small cheek of the baby Jesus with strangers and fellow schoolmates. Mary was a staff nurse who had moved from Singapore to India for nursing school, and Joseph was one of the native-born doctors. Although I was in a different land and place, I saw the joy Christmas brought to all around me. When the Hindus saw me, they told me the stage was real to them, and they came to see "Maria" and the baby, "Geejus." My job was to point toward the nativity scene the entire time.
The fashion industry illuminates the towns where we live. Citizens browse items merrily and wish greetings on strangers and friends alike. Children are expectant in wondering what the adults will bestow upon them this year. This year, may we teach them how hard our industries strive to make this time special for us and the world around. May consumerism and greed not reign, but child-like hearts that want to experience sheer wonder and joy of the season.
One year, someone gifted me with a cashmere scarf, and everyone was awed by the material, texture, and color. It was something that caught everyone's eye. I felt as if I was a hypnotist, but I knew it was the pure craftmanship. All the factors worked together to come to me almost in a magical way. Have we ever stopped and wondered how hard it took a gift to come to us? The journey it took or the animals that bequeathed to us their majestic bounty to warm and comfort us?
This year, may we consider no single gift in vain, but a single transparent way that makes us appreciate the wonder of all creation around the world.
Fashion is our creation at its best and its glory. May all creators of fashion this year rejoice in their efforts and send an upward prayer of thanks to divine inspiraton, for without it, we would suffer.
Thanks to all of you for the work and miracle that you give us at Christmas time and always.

Victoria's Secrets/Fans
Today is one of the days we find time to gather and give thanks
together.
I find that we can also give thanks for everything that we have,
even if it is the smallest of things.
Sometimes, it is the "little things" that matter, and not a date
or time, but something that is shared in a moment, or a significant
object, song, or other nuance that defines an intense experience.
If you felt this today, give thanks to the creator of all things.
For without this, we cannot be creative artists.
Thanks to all of you for upbuilding all of these things in the aspects
of your work and your life. I know you are out there, and I am glad.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Note: Please view only if you are 18 or over and if you are interested
in fashion on the runway that involves Victoria Secret.
The Chicago store is planning a move to another location, I hear.
Also, USA channels will carry the fashion show this coming Tuesday.
So look for it. This is a link to a preview I saw just today.
