Hermes for the Office!!



Hey Ladies!!!

When you need to perk up your boring office suit, what better way to do it than with an Hermes Scarf?? Nothing will work better to change your office appearance from Drab to FAB!!

When you think of Hermes, you think of European glamour, Grace Kelly, and timeless sophistication.  Each Hermes scarf is a true work of art.  Hermes Scarf Silk Twill
They are well worth the investment for the artistic value alone! Get one girls! This is the one classic piece that will take you anywhere and always impress.  I love, love, love my scarf and Hermes cuffs.  The thing that always gets people talking is the vibrant colors, interesting subject matter, and masterful prints.  Each scarf has its own story to tell.  For example, my scarf pictured below reflects the rich cultural heritage of the Roma gypsy culture of Europe.  There are story-tellers, musicians, a gypsy caravan, and even the patron saint of the gypsies, St. Sarah of Kali Saint Sarah of Kali.  So many interesting lessons can be learned from the Hermes Scarf :)

Grace Kelly Oscar Dress


Grace Kelly Green


When I was the Southern California Rose of Tralee, my mother and sister made me a silk gown to copy Grace Kelly's.  Using a Bellville Sassoon pattern, the wonderful owner of Sky Couture in Murrieta found us the exact matching fabric!! It was a total dream come true.  I will definitely be wearing my dress for tonight!!

Here is my dress pictured below:
