A Great Find...
After a recent wine tasting tour in Santa Barbara, I was left with a bit of a dilemma,
how do I bring the wines I am tasting home to New York? Shipping seems like the obvious answer, but many of the smaller vineyards cannot send alcohol to New York state.
Enter WineSkin, a brilliant combination of bubble wrap and vinyl, designed to protect precious bottles of wine in transit. Genius!

It's Black, It's White...
As Michael Jackson so brilliantly proclaimed in his 1991 hit, black and white was all over the Spring 2013 runways, from Marc Jacobs to Alexander Wang to Lanvin. Some fashionable ladies (+ Kristen Stewart) are already rocking the b/w trend on the red carpet.

Slits-ville...
2012 has been the year of the slit. It all began with Angelina Jolie's right leg at the Academy Awards, and now it needs to end. The stunning Halle Berry arrived at the Berlin premiere for Cloud Atlas in this ill fitting frock with a sad side-slit which does nothing for her trainer-toned gams. When a trend fails on Ms. Berry, it is time for the trend to end.
RIP

The Aftermath...
Sandy swept through the Eastern seaboard this past week, and left left us in a state of shock.
Thankfully casa EJT was unharmed, and welcomed a few downtowners who lost power and water, in for a mid-week slumber party.
Safe and warm at casa EJT
