Would you’ve believe?

This woman is the artistic director of the couture house of Emanuel Ungaro?

Lindsay-Lohan-Ungaro-5

Several months ago, I was totally horrified when I learned the President Mounir Moufarrige, of the famed couture house Emanuel Ungaro appointed…are you ready…none other than party girl extraordinaire, Lindsay Lohan as artistic director.  Well, as an old school kind of girl, who always had great respect and adoration for the couture houses, I was, as you can imagine incredulous about this.  The latest from this company is that they have parted ways with their president Moufarrige, but, you guessed it, are keeping Lindsay Lohan on as artistic director.  Who cares that her first show was a total disaster, or that her partying ways are becoming more and more infamous…what are we coming to is this the ode to any publicity is better than no publicity???

Cool Old School

If you checked out the latest issue of WWD, they are boasting that Large Metal Sunglasses are back in the trend! Well, that is old news for us, because we’ve been dressing our customers with some of the coolest, old school frames around.  Isn’t it nice to wear the style before it becomes a trend?

211 Mott Street, chez Linda Derector

Please stop by for champagne, J.Chanceux Macarons, and a Nathan Jenden trunk show!
Who is Nathan Jenden you say? In short, he is the best news for eyewear addicts to come down the pike. After searching to come up with a fun, exciting new item to offer for the holidays, I was thrilled to find this collection. I’ve been saving them for a Xmas “rollout,” but whoever I give a peek to, goes wild! $295 for most styles, a lot of bang for the buck! You, too, could don The Ghetto Princess, or Bowdacious, or is Dominatrix more your speed?

Greenwood, Jane 1

Jane G stopped by the store today, we had the so much
fun!  After she made her selection of new eyeglasses,
I brought out the big guns…the Ghetto Princess, totally
encrusted with pink swarovski crystals,  IT IS KILLER.  Clearly there’s no turning back for Jane.
