Couture Fashion Week New York: A Preview

-
Since 2003, Couture Fashion Week has presented a series of couture and luxury fashion shows a few times each year in New York City, Palm Beach, and other cities.I happened to learn about it last February, when I got an invitation to attend it all three days.

 I didn't know what to expect, but it turned out be a quite interesting mix of cultures. The thing is that Couture Fashion Week always happens right the next day after the last show of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week and it showcases chosen designers from around the world, who are not as known in USA, as they are in their own countries. This said - I must add - those designers are rather talented. I've watched the last shows and was quite impressed. [See the photos from the last year's Couture Fashion Show New York here.]


This year there were designers from Beirut, Lebanon, Russia, Turkey, Romania, Dubai, India, Brazil, Peru, Morocco, Netherlands, china, Germany and U.K. presented.

Small Town Profile: The Texan Style

  It's been my fifth year in a row spending Christmas in College Station, Texas - a town that I would have never thought I'd end up going to more than I do to any other places in the world. [How many times I wished my parents settled in places like Paris, London, Florence, Split, Berlin, or at least - in San Francisco and/or Washington, DC - the places that I'd be more than happy to visit them at more often!] So, it's a true battle when the holidays or vacation times come - to go visit my parents in Texas or to go to Paris, Amsterdam or Tokyo - or places I've never visited before? - a battle that I often loose in favor of my parents, and, thus - in favor of the little Texan town, College Station...
