Dinner
Impromptu iphone shots of the Riviera Club Autumn/ Winter 2011 presentation for New York Fashion Week. Too good not to share, the staging, set design and styling could not have been more on point. The presentation was held at the Bowery Hotel in a room that emanated a sharp cedar smell as soon as you went up the stairs, the models staged around an enormous handcrafted wood table full of meats and cheeses and wine that the they were welcomed to consume while the live American folk-rock musical band (Frontier Ruckus) played in the background. Definitely the best way of showcasing their tweed jackets, blazers, and flannels. Rivieraclothing.com

An Encyclopedia of Forgotten-Yet-Delightful, Chic, Useful, Curious, and Otherwise Commendable Things from Times Gone By. I recently got my hands on a copy of the book which came out a few months ago, by Lesley M.M. Blume, and found it incredibly enjoyable. The styling of every detail is impeccably done complementing the theme of the book, bringing back richness, decadence and style. It's a perfect coffee table book.
