Once Upon a Hat

on February 11, 2014

I photographed milliner, Wanda J. Chambers, outside Arts Weschester where her hats are on display alongside the work of 40 other chapeau designers. Wanda is a natural in front of the camera, but she revealed to me that she only started to feel good about taking pictures, when she started gaining confidence in herself a couple of years ago. To see more of Wanda’s wonderful work, check out her website HERE.

Hat by Carlos Hats

This past weekend I attended a wonderful hat exhibit at Arts Weschester in White Plains, NY. There are over 150 hats, designed by 40 contemporary milliners (including our very own Debra Rapoport) on display through the 12th of April. I’ll be posting photos from the opening all week and for some more hat inspiration check out the trailer to my favorite movie below:

Style Consistency

on February 7, 2014

I always love running into this stunning woman when I am photo hunting near Madison Avenue. Every time I’ve stopped her she has been wearing her signature black hat, a wonderful scarf, coat, and pair of earrings. The other day I finally asked her to describe her style to me and she responded, “I always wear black, it’s easy. Then I add some accessories.” She definitely has a look all her own, and an elegant one at that.

This gorgeous couple has extraordinary taste in eyewear. I have had a lot of inquiries about the circle+square glasses below after posting a photo of them on Instagram. I didn’t get a chance to find out where they were from, but I was able to track down a similar pair HERE.
