Actor Jack Nicholson’s daughter Jennifer has done seven collections since 2004 and is proving to be one of the new great faces in fashion. Funky and unique her clothes have a certian girlish edge to them that we love. Lots of bright colors, faux fur, very glitz and glam at times, and some say very ‘L.A.’ but we say just right. WEBSITE

Woody Allen’s latest film Scoop, recieved mixed reviews after its opening early this week. Many said that it was Allen’s worst film to date and a step in the wrong direction after the Academy Award nominated Match Point. Personally I enjoyed Scoop a great deal more than Match Point because it starred the Woodster himself.

Paris: Stay on the left bank in the charming Hotel Verneuil across the street from legendary musician Serge Gainsbourg’s house in one of the best shopping and residential districts in the world. Pictured here is a view from the Verneuil where we once stayed. 

Our favorite film. The classic To Catch A Theif starring film legends Cary Grant and Grace Kelly features some of the best costumes I have seen to date, namely the beach scene and that hat that causes quite a few heads to turn.

Block out the summer sun with these bad boys. Rayban’s Wayfarer sunglasses.

Sant Ambroeus on Madison Avenue has been one of my favorite restaurant’s since I was a little kid. These days the West 4th street location is the place you can catch all the celebs dinning but that is all the more reason to go uptown! And if you catch the place in action you’re likely to see more gorgeous european ladies, fur coats, and Birkin bags per square foot than one can handle. 

1000 Madison Ave., between 77th and 78th streets.
