the best luxury brands to wear to make a statement now

Published by Pamela Thomas-Graham

What are you trying to say with what you’re wearing right now? Is it possible to be both on-trend and on-message? Many of us view fashion as a strong and effective way to send a message to others: about who we are, what we value, and how we’re currently feeling about the world in general. Consciously or not, what we choose to wear every day signals a great deal to others – which is why it pays to put some thought into it. Done well, fashion helps us claim our space in the world; support what we are passionate about; or just inject some wit and color into a dark or dull situation. Our feeling is that you have to get dressed anyway – so why not make your attire work harder for you?

What is a Typical Day on a Luxury Cruise Ship Like?

Published by Pamela Thomas-Graham

If I go on a luxury cruise, will I be bored? Is it going to feel claustrophobic? What do people do all day with all that time? These are logical questions, since almost any ocean cruise is going to involve at least a couple of days at sea (and sometimes many, many more). So what does one do all day when the shoreline is nowhere in sight? Recently, we took a 10-day cruise on the ultra-luxurious Regent Seven Seas Explorer. What follows is a photo journey to share the details of how we managed to pass the time. Spoiler alert: dear reader, you will definitely not be bored should you decide to embark on a luxury cruise on the high seas, at least if you go on this ship.

Black Panther Brings New Luxury Look to the Red Carpet

Published by Pamela Thomas-Graham

The influence of the film Black Panther will be felt around the globe in myriad ways, not the least of which is in the fashion world. We admit it: we’re pretty obsessed with this movie right now. So we went exploring online to see what impact the story of the first black superhero and his family, friends and adversaries is having on the red carpet this season. Admittedly, it’s a bit early, since the movie premiered only three weeks ago. And this is a pre-Oscar round-up. Still, it’s fun to see what the Wakandans are wearing as they promote their film and collect awards for their previous work.
