The first ever Diane von Furstenberg accessories shop opened last week at 440 West 14th Street in the gallery space of DVF's headquarters. The shop is in the heart of Manhattan's Meat Packing District, steps away from the High Line. The windows are decorated with DVF's signature fluorescent lips and mannequins wearing iconic wrap dresses. Inside the shop the walls are filled with lipstick lips like wallpaper, pink carpeting and a heart-shaped pouf covered in a black-and white print for anyone who needs to rest their feet.
Tomorrow is the last day of the Diane von Furstenberg sample sale in New York City. But if you can't get over to 260 Fifth Avenue or don't have the time to spend digging through the racks, head on over to www.DVF.com where today is the LAST day to receive up to 70% off the season merchandise. Sure, the prices aren't as low as the NYC sample sale, but, you don't have to deal with waiting in line in the heat or being limited to only 20 minutes in the dressing room. Also, sometimes sample sales can be a bit overwhelming and stressful.

Again, Olivia Palermo never ceases to wow me with her sense of style. Palermo was in Madrid to present the new Pikolinos collection, designed and hand-beaded by female members of the Maasai tribe in Kenya. I love how she wore her pair from the collection with an outfit she could also where with pumps or strappy high sandals.
Once again I am in awe of any celeb that manages to create a great ensemble while battling security lines and shlepping luggage. Today's airport fashionista is the beautiful Kate Beckinsale. I am not lying when I say I never look this put together when traveling. I always think I have put together the perfect comfy yet not sloppy but still effortless look and I still manage to look so blah. Plus, when I get off a plane, forget it, I look tired and bloated but dry at the same time.
