Elie Tahari has come a long way since coming to this country with only $100 in his pocket. His first fashion job was out of Newark selling hats and gloves on the street and decades later he’s built a dynasty. It’s an inspiring story; one that continues today with yet another milestone in the designers career. Today, is Elie Tahari’s 40th Anniversary and with that he’s earned the accolade of a holiday. Going forward September 4th is now Elie Tahari Day! It doesn’t get more official then an opening speech by Joan Rivers and a signed proclamation by Mayor Bloomberg.

Check it! UGG Fall Preview
Yesterday I featured my new Jena boots from UGG Australia so I thought it would be fitting to give you a peek at all the amazing styles they have for fall! A few weeks back I stopped by the brand’s preview — and you know else was there? Brad Goreski. And while I love his polished bow-tie look, I’m not gonna lie, this more rugged laid back style was really working for me! (I almost didn’t recognize him).
