Meet French Model, Anais Mali

What a dramatically beautiful girl. Meet French model, Anais Mali. My sister went to school together with her in France, and even back then I always thought she has the most wonderful bone-structure, sweet-sounding voice and personality to match! Must remember to ring her up when next in New York. She is such a bundle of energy and very grounded, too. Visit her charitable foundation HERE Get to know her better HERE

The Shoe Sculpture By David Gerstein

Read more about David Gerstein HERE. The piece above is called 'The Lady' - I was besotted with this shoe sculpture at an exhibition in Paris recently and thought it would be a wonderful addition to my ever-expanding art collection. The fact that it's made of metal makes it all the more alluring. Don't you just adore the detailing, colours and all those butterflies!
