I went to Housing Works Thrift Store to look for some furniture and spotted this stunning gentleman. His tailored look is chic and full of character. The other day an old woman told me that, “There is nothing better than a well dressed man” and this fellow surely fits the bill.

Old Hollywood
I met this stunning woman at a sample sale party for milliner Ellen Christine. She looks as if she could have stepped right out of one of the Old Hollywood movies I used to watch with my grandmother. She is elegant and charming and I hope to photograph her again. By the way Linda’s beautiful suit was made by Andrea Fisher, whose designs are featured at Lark Boutique in Lacrosse, WI.
Matching On A Rainy Day
I saw this matching couple as they were leaving MoMA on a rainy day and stopped them for a quick photo. Sometimes your best accessory is a partner in crime.
The Art Of Style
The other day Tziporah Salamon and I had a great time dressing up and taking photos for a special photo shoot. One of New York’s best dressed ladies, Tziporah creates visual masterpieces with each outfit she puts together. She told me that the work of Matisse really perfected her eye. Do you guys feel that style is a form of art?
I hope you enjoy the small video and photos I put together and check out Tziporah’s site for more visual inspiration.
You Don’t Have To Be Perfect
I took Ilona to an advanced screening of the Bill Cunningham documentary and on the way there she started to tell me about her eyelashes. She said,” I don’t always get them on straight, but there is beauty in imperfection.” I always have my Flip camera around to capture Ilona’s infinite wisdom and I made a small video of her explaining why you don’t have to be perfect, and how there is more beauty in imperfection. After our ride we got out of the taxi and Ilona gave me a quick dancing lesson in the rain in Times Square. For more videos of this fantastic 90 year old woman check out my new video page.
