Andy Warhol to De Kooning; The Art Gods Are Calling

Hello Weekenders!

I have been craving some museum time as of late; the art gods are calling. In San Diego we have had a small collection of paintings from a wide range of artists showing at the San Diego Museum. One of my favorite artists is Willem de Kooning and wow the painting on show did not disappoint, I stood for a good 20min just studying every layer, brushstroke and color. I would have taken photos, but it was a no camera zone (I did manage a sneaky pic of the Andy Warhol Soup Cans).

The Fall Men's Fashion Week: Playful and Frisky Feeling

I'm not sure if I'm feeling playful because it's almost Valentines Day or if it's the Men's Fashion Week Shows like, the Dolce & Gabbana and Costume National, that I've been watching (over and over again)! 

It’s time for the Weekender! Get It Done

Some of you will see in my YouTube vlog that my holiday decorations are still around the Casa W. My excuse; I don’t use Ritalin or Adderall, there is only so much one can do in a day when my number one priority is the family (9 out of 10 mothers will agree). In the spirit of good intention I will attempt to pack the holiday away. I did manage to clean up some of the garage & guest room (dumping grounds) this week, which has cleared the way for a glorious start to my Get It Done endeavor.

Fashion Week YouTube Lookbook

 After a multitude of computer crashes (Thank you #NYFW social media and content) I've finally posted my Fashion Week Lookbook on my YouTube channel Beauty by SW.




Thanks to Valerie Lee Owner of Chateau Bel Age Boutique for the use of her beautiful store, I could live in there. Some of the outfits didn't get full OOTD during the world wide phenomenon know as New York Fashion Week simply because it wasn't quite Fall Fashion weather but still all the outfits I would wear to a dinner, event or luncheon. I have shopped with Le Bel Age for the better part of my life because Valerie's choices in fashion are timeless and chic.I will have to share my jewelry collection with you all sometime, I've amassed a small bioux store at home. Be sure to give the video a thumbs up and share or subscribe for your dose of fashion fun and adventures.
Thank you all for your support
Until Next Time
Happy Hunting

Mara Hoffman Runway Hits New Highs!

Mara Hoffman’s Fall Collection has hit a level of sophistication that had been missing in some of her past shows.  She has definitely hit a stride that I’m sure will translate into sales for this designer house.

French Chic With Anthropologie Pastel Pink

I’ve always loved vintage styles mixed with my twist of French Chic. A simple line and girly overtones are classics no matter what age you are. Just look at Olivia Palermo’s timeless style, she’s definitely on my stylista list. The photos from her low key wedding are stunning
