Overnight Trip to L.A.

By jamesda1 · October 6, 2010 · 0 Comments

Last weekend I headed to L.A. to shoot a Ustream event with Rue La La and Whitney Port for her collection, Whitney Eve available now on Rue La La.  I was only in town for a day, so I only packing was pretty simple with some of my favorite and most comfortable pieces. For the day I wore a white v-neck tee with a pair of white Stan Smiths, and switched into a white Dolce & Gabbana cashmere sweater with a pair of HUDSON jeans and Nike Dunks.

 

For those that missed it, you can catch the live chat with Whitney Port here:

By jamesda1 · September 16, 2010 · 0 Comments

During New York Fashion Week one of the shows I attended was the Perry Ellie Spring 2011 collection runway show at Lincoln Center, the new home of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week.  The show was amazing and showcased Perry Ellis's sporty heritage comprsing of tailored jackets, sweaters and shorts.  I loved so many of the looks, but my favorite is a black and white v-neck sweater shown below.

For fans who could not attend the Perry Ellis show, a livestream was broadcasted on PerryEllis.com and Facebook.com/PerryEllis.

Time for Discovery - Day 2 in Jamaica

By jamesda1 · August 9, 2010 · 0 Comments

Today was our first full day in Jamaica, and as such wanted to discover more about what the resort had to offer.  Waking up at a respectful 10:00 AM we decided to head to to the main buffet for breakfast.  The food was delicious and I enjoyed a ham and cheese omelet with french toast and fruit.

 

After breakfast, my girlfriend and I headed over to the water sports center where we grabbed some snorkeling gear and hit the water.  I didn't find Nemo, but we did see some friendly fish who followed us everywhere we went!  After we returned our snorkeling equipment, we walked off the resort to some shops that were on the beach.  All the vendors were happy to see us and asked us all to check out their shops, which contained beautiful hand carved wood masks, sculptures and paintings.

 

During lunchtime the resort offered a BBQ on the beach. The food was delicious and I ended up having jerk chicken, rice and beans and some fresh fruit.  After a long day on the beach we decided we needed some self indulgence, so we decided to check out the spa.   The spa was amazing, offering a large hot tub and saunas with hot or cold baths.  We decided that we needed to more self indulgence, so we made a reservation for the following day for massages on the beach.
