Trunk Shows and Book Signings, OH MY!

It is going to be a very busy two weeks at Upstairs on 7th!

Next Tuesday from 12-7 and Wednesday from 11-5 is the Kedem Sasson Trunk Show and we are lucky to also have the gorgeous jewelry of Annemieke Broenink who will be here with us from Amsterdam. ALSO, Andy, our rep from Kedem, represents Niche so you will be able to see and order fall from that line as well. Both Kedem and Niche looked really great for fall and Annemieke is bringing over 150 pieces for you to choose from and take home.

Crea and La Petite Robe will also be here for shows in March. I am just waiting to confirm those dates. For those of you who ordered Kedem for spring, it will be in the store by Tuesday as it just landed in New York today and they will get it out to us first. If you did not get to come to that show I bought a lot of it as it was so fabulous, so there should be plenty for those of you who love that line. The big news from Crea is that they made a less expensive line so it will be fun to have the chance to get that for fall. The first of their spring line should be in the store today. Lunn is in the store as is Peter O Mahler, Ray Harris, Planet, Dress to Kill, Comfy, Transparente, and Sun Kim. I also got in some really really gorgeous Sissy Yates necklaces. There are a few that are made of some rare stones in the most beautiful shades of blue. While I was in New York I also got two new colors of the eco friendly multi strand wood necklaces from Jianhai of London: dark racing green and orange.

Below is the invitation for the Ali Wentworth book signing on March 6th from 6-8 pm. PLEASE forward the invite to your friends as it is going to be a really special night and the book is really laugh out loud funny. If you are planning to come you MUST let me know as I do not want to run out of books or food. I can’t wait to ask Ali how it felt to be in a scene with Meryl Streep.

Speaking of Meryl Streep, the Oscars are this Sunday night! Here is a link to a story our own Mary Tabor wrote about the movies we all must see before Oscar night. Might have to marathon between now and then! Although I warn you, while Mary loved Tree of Life, I have to say it was, and will always be, on my all time list of movies I wish I could have walked out of.

Can’t wait to see all the fashion and of course George! With Billy Crystal hosting this year it should be a great show.

Hope to see you all soon!
