Boys just want to have fun, and that is exactly what Johnny boy is doing. I recently watched his new documentary show on the Sundance channel, and loved this guys “moxie”. He is very talented on the ice. We all know that, but what a rule breaker. Did he ever skate to “I am what I am”? He is a trail blazer in his industry and a great role model. Keep up the good work. There are no judges in this world, only on ice.

We all need a reminder that spring is on it’s way…
I’m going to rush and buy a beautiful orchid to brighten up my day and decor. This chic plant (think walking into a Calvin Klein world) is difficult to care for but is worth the work. Even try replanting in a minimal square vase with blk or white small rocks. It will make all the difference. Don’t over pay for orchids. You can find them in places like Trader Joe’s and other grocery stores (just replant!), or if in New York go the the flower district for a wonderful selection. Enjoy and spring will be in your home before you know it.

The winner this season for best spring 2010 fashion advertising goes to Louis Vuitton. First of all, who doesn’t love Lara Stone? I featured her in my Who Are You? section a few months ago. The Vuitton enchanted forest is filled with hope and love birds. Who knew that dirt could be this sexy! Stone cold sexy. By the way, lets get real…$3,000 handbags thrown in the dirt!! What women would do that? Anything for fashion!!

All my friends have been asking me for years, where I got my smart little “wallet”. All I carry is this Goyard card case with a few credit cards ,drivers license , and some handy “Silver Fox In The City” business cards. Boys, money goes in the front pocket. We don’t want large wallets that add extra weight to our worked out frames. You can also get this personalized with your initials so you know its yours at all times. I’ve had mine for 4 years now, and it gets worn and better with age. Barney’s and Bergdorfs get ready !! The boys are coming. Great for girls too. They may come in pink!

Not in this case… Just read the book “Just Kids” by Patti Smith. This recollection of her friendship with Robert Mapplethorpe is all about how these two kids in New York with no money working in book stores, stayed true to their passions. The race to become successful was part of how they lived there lives. We all know that they both are a genius in their craft. I was lucky to hear Patti speak and sing at Barnes and Noble to promote the book. She reads like she sings and sings like she reads. What remains in my head is “Robert would be so happy you all came to this”. Read on…..

These wonderful watercolors by artist Mark Chamberlain sets a new twist to the classic Batman and Robin animation. The colors emerge into a witty and also romantic body of works. Who ever thought that Batman and Robin would become more than just friends? It happens! I own two of these watercolors and they are available through Kathleen Cullen Fine Arts. The images are highly collectible and become addicting. I grew up watching every episode of Batman. I just love this new take on the boys!!
