Hello Kitty Fragrance

Hello Kitty's flirty and sexy fragrance is called Momoberry. “Momo” translated from Japanese, means ‘peach’ or ‘pink’, but that does not mean this is a bubble gum, candy-like scent. Momoberry is infused with island florals such as frangipani blossoms, red hibiscus, star jasmine and gardenia then followed by hints of Tahitian vanilla, sandalwood, coconut, and the thinnest veil of musk, topped off with a splash of sun ripened guava. Perfectly delicious!

Ladurée

The rainbow-coloured macaroons had a starring role in Coppola's Marie Antoinette. The movie had its pastries supplied by this old-fashioned tea salon on the Left Bank. But also Carrie in Sex in the city visited the shop when she was in Paris. These small, round cakes, crisp on the outside, smooth and soft in the middle, are made every morning in Ladurée’s "laboratory". With each new season, Ladurée are creating a new flavour. Flavours that are permanently available are Chocolate - Bitter chocolate - Vanilla - Coffee - Hazelnut praline - Rose petal - Pistachio - Raspberry - Lemon - Blackcurrant violet - Salted butter Caramel - Red fruits - Liquorice.

In Monaco there is even a Ladurée Fairyland shop. Its a sparkling place with a marvelous decor. Its a paradise of pastries! In Paris you can find Ladurée at 6 rue Royale, 8th arrondissement.

Le Chocolat Chaud de Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho has now his own drink: chocolate chaud with orange. It is a special homage paid to him by the Hotel Le Bristol's bar in Paris, which is a setting for some of the passages of his most recent novel The Zahir.

Gaspard Yurkievich

An item of news about fashion designer Gaspard Yurkievich, he has just designed a chocolate cake, for the Cafe de la Paix, with a touch of raspberry and a hint of ginger. Inside the cake is hidden a little porcelain letter (part of his name, and something to take away with you to remind you of the experience) and the whole thing is capped by a chocolate, er, shoe.

Le Café de la Paix - Paris

The Café de la Paix is one of Paris' most famous. Designed by the same Garnier, of the Opéra Garnier the décor recalls a past era. The Opéra area was once the hub of café society in Paris, and while the ``hub'' is no longer, the elegance of that time remains.

Bob Guccione - the Milbank Mansion Exclusive tour

Try, for a moment, to imagine yourself in the shoes of your average gazillionaire. (If it helps to affect the accent of a Russian oligarch or a Texan oil magnate, go right ahead. You can even try for Greenwich-bred hedge fund manager, but the subtleties of that one can be elusive.) You have long since left the millionaires behind, and even the decamillionaires are like quaint, countrified third cousins.
You have serious money to spend. You start with the easy stuff—a jet, perhaps a yacht, a very fast car, a truly fantastic wardrobe. These things are pretty easy to acquire—all you need is an American Express black card and a dream. Now it’s time to get a place in Manhattan. As it turns out, your options are somewhat limited. You need more than a pied-à-terre or a merely lavish spread. You’re in the market for a real showstopper, a perch from which to make your mark on the cultural life of the city. (That’s code for hosting seriously decadent parties.)
There is one home currently on the market that would break the bank and supply all the credit any money horse would need. The Milbank mansion on East 67th Street is one of the largest private residences in the city with a $45-million price tag. The house has a mirrored gym, wine cellar, grand ballroom, stone fireplace, massive bathroom that contains a mosaic tub and a gold-plated toilet and bidet. A sitting room opens onto a Mediterranean-style patio and a glass-roofed studio where Guccione used to paint. The fourth, fifth, and sixth floors all sport multiple bedrooms, fireplaces, and sitting rooms, and at the top of the stairs is a lovely, delicate stained-glass skylight. In case you lose count, that’s twenty-six rooms in all. If it’s a labyrinth, you may not want to ever find your way out.

Irina Kulikova - Model of Fall 2007 - Her Famed Good Look

I am really taken by her elfin look. This fall she'll be starring in two Meisel-lensed campaigns and one by Willy Vanderperre.

Crown Jewel - Bulgaris new Flagship Store

The intersection of Fifth and 57th has become even more spectacular. The outrageous rocks of the renowned Italian jeweler Bulgari have a newly-redesigned architectural masterpiece to call home. Light floods in from the glass façades through the backlit staircase, illuminating juxtapositions of rectangles and curves—it's all as exquisite as the jewelry. Designed by an in-house committee, the 13,000 square foot store boasts a completely renovated exterior that harkens back to the original Bulgari store on the Via Condotti in Rome.

Face of Fashion

Kate Moss continues her never-ending return to the top of the celebrity ladder by also fronting the exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery called, "the Face of Fashion. The last the day to see the extraordinary exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery in London curated by Susan Bright is May 28th. The Face of Fashion focuses on the portraits of five outstanding fashion photographers from Europe and America: Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott, Corinne Day, Steven Klein, Paolo Roversi and Mario Sorrenti. Many of the 120 portraits include those originally produced for fashion houses, while some were commissioned for magazines such as Vanity Fair and Pop. Fashion surrounds us... its place in our society is undeniable. There have been many other exhibitions about the fashion field but this is the first time the focus is on portraiture. In the contemporary fashion world, models, actors, musicians and designers frequently swap places. The exhibition highlights the relationship between fashion and celebrity and illustrates the extraordinary intimacy that often develops between photographer and subject. "This is a look at the way we see things by taking these images out of the context of magazines and putting them in a gallery"

The Independent State of Kate

The launch in May of the Kate Moss collection at London's cool-and-cheap store is yet another of the high-low celebrity tie-ups. But with a difference. Moss herself has a sense of style that cannot be bought with designer dollars. And if she can capture her own heady mix of offhand glamour and rock chick cool — and sell it off the rack — this could be the ultimate celebrity success story for the model and for Topshop. Moss could have the winning formula Fashion icon.The collection consists of looks that are sexy and incredibly edgy, just like Kate. The supermodel has chosen Canadian model, Irina Lazareanu to star alongside her in the line's ad campaign.
