How flattering

Such sweet little flats, I am not sure of the circa on these, but I do know that this pattern was first designed in 1966 for Princess Grace of Monaco, and that in 2013, Gucci resurrected it for another round of spring/summer fashion, Any way, these are perfect for Palm Beach, Long Island in the summer, and of course for LA.

Here's a pic of the suit they did for 2013...I adore it!!!

This Blog comes from the heart and mind, (but mostly from the heart), of Amy Sklar, interior designer, mother, daughter, foodie, and lover of fashion.

I must admit, the driving force behind this blog was my need to somehow, some way, create a tribute to my dear mother Carole Lawrence. She was a great beauty, chef, friend and mother. Sadly, I lost her to cancer February 23rd 2013. Since beginning on February 23rd 2014 it has been my goal to wear a piece of her clothing, jewelry, or an accessory that she passed on to me, for a total of 365 days (Not in a row, sorry, I am also a mother of two, a small business owner, wife and friend. I tried to do it in a row, and it almost broke me.) I believe it is a fitting tribute to this incredible woman with the greatest sense of style I've ever known. A digital archive, a love letter, a journal, a remeberance for your children and future generations. I love you mom.
