I’m so happy I got back from Greece in time to make it to the Hampton for Super Saturday with OCRFA, the largest global charity making advances in ovarian cancer research. It’s by far my most favorite shopping day of the year with all of the proceeds going to Ovarian Cancer Research!

I recently discovered this really cool website, Designers & Books, which features profiles of the world’s most esteemed designers and the books that inspire them, as well as ones they have written. We’re talking all types of designers — fashion (like Donna Karan and Cynthia Rowley), architecture, graphic design, interior design, landscape architecture, product and industrial design, and urban design.
From October 26-28, Designers & Books is hosting their first Designers & Books Fair 2012, at the Fashion Institute of Technology Conference Center in New York Citywhich includes a dynamic series of featured speakers in a variety of design disciplines including Donna Karan, Todd Oldham, Valerie Steele, Debbie Millman we well subjects such as Cover Stories: A Conversation about Book Design, and How to Get Published in the World of Design Books.
In addition there will be an exhibition hall featuring approximately 35 design book publishers and booksellers selling their newest titles at discounted prices and also antiquarian dealers, authors signing books, and book artisans demonstrating calligraphy, book binding, and letterpress printing.
