Hello Darlings, As February marks the beginning of worldwide fashion weeks, I made my way to New York for Tommy Hilfiger festivities and prior to that for some much needed down time. On a snowy Monday morning I hoped into a cab to Park Avenue Armory arriving just 5 minutes to 10.

Along with 40 of other international media, we had the opportunity to mingle backstage with some of the fresh faced beauties while Pat McGrath ensured that every girl looked perfect.

Hello Darlings, There are random acts of spontaneity and there are completely random moments in life! One of my most random acts in life happened two weeks ago. Somewhere between a business meeting and holiday shopping, I decided to join a gym and hire a personal trainer! Just like that. One moment I was driving by a gym and 40 minutes later I was set up with a year long membership and 24 personal training sessions.

Never in my life have I joined a gym, in fact I was terrified. Being surrounded by all types of equipment and dozens of men and women with exceptional physiques made me want to run. However I was determined to get into my pre-car accident shape. It has been over 3 years since the accident and I have a green light to get back to all of my activities. Hence I decided to tackle my new year resolution before the year has began!
