Women’s Watch Trends for Fall and Holiday 2012


We’re on a mission to find the perfect everday watch, and shopping online is an easier way to narrow the field.  So far, we like the selection on Van Mildert*, an award-winning premium fashion retailer in the U.K. that sells designer clothing, shoes and accessories.  And unlike many e-commerce stores from across the pond, Van Mildert conveniently converts its prices to U.S. dollars so you’ll know exactly how much you’re spending.



From two tone watches to rubber watches with crystal embellishments, Van Mildert has a nicely curated selection.  We know we’re in the minority on this, but we’re not a fan of watches with fake or genuine bling.  Instead, we like timeless time pieces and currently Michael Kors’ eye-catching Women’s Tortoise Jet Set Watch (above photo) is at the top of our holiday wish list. We also love Kors’ classic Mid-Size Chronograph Rose Gold Watch and his modern Women’s Two Tone White & Gold Silicone Watch. 

To match the new Michael Kors watch we have our eyes on, Everything She Wants' also craves the must-have Michael Kors Jet Set Black Tote Bag and a pair of packable Michael Kors Women’s Driver Red Pumps (ironically, these are sporty flats with a branded silver logo and square toe), both available on Van Mildert.




For teens and trendier adults, Van Mildert also has cool plastic and ceramic styles in solid colors with and without bling from Italian designer watch company, ToyWatch. Watches like the Pink Monochrome Chronograph Plasteramic Watch (above photo) make a bold fashion statement.

Conway Discount Clothing Chain Closing in New York City

It's the end of an era. Conway discount stores are closing . As of this weekend, a sign on the sole Herald Square location (34th Street btwn 7th and 8th Ave) says the store will close in "7 Days." Before I relocated to New York City, I was introduced to the discount chain while on a bus trip from Baltimore.  I recall the first time I saw Conway's signature pink bags carried by hurried shoppers in midtown. And Miss Foster, the trip organizer and a bargain hunter from way back, took me to the store for the first time. Conway store in the Fulton Mall./Tracy E. Hopkins When I moved here in 1994, my love affair with Conway continued.  I furnished my first apartment with discount knick-knacks and home goods from the store.  And much to my chagrin, in hindsight, I curated most of my wardrobe for my first full-time job from the long-shuttered 42nd Street and Third Avenue store. One regretful ensemble: Lime green and white checkered pants with a matching lime green

Memorial Day Weekend 2023 Cultural Highlight: DanceAfrica Festival at the Brooklyn Academy of Music and Throughout Brooklyn

In her essay, " African Dance is Medicine for the Mind, Body and Spirit ," dancer, teacher and choreographer Cherie Hill wrote, "The more I perform African dance, the more I discover and enjoy euphoria. When the drums are beating and the body is dancing everything fits in sync and I feel limitless and powerful."   Photo by Nate Palmer                                                                                                                         Hill is honored with a portrait by Cecilia Lamptey-Botchway that's on display   at the  BAM Howard Gilman Opera House  during the annual  DanceAfrica Festival .  The festival celebrates Black joy and resilience and the regal power of African dance.  I mark my calendar each year for the  DanceAfrica Bazaar, where I often run into old friends and see familiar faces. In a Brooklyn that has quickly become gentrified, I love to see us walking tall, beaming with pride and to quote Bey, "shining, shining, shining, y

Soak Up the Last Weeks of Summer Sun At The Rockaway Hotel

Summer is winding down, but there's still time to soak up the sun -- while wearing sunscreen, chic shades and a protective hat or sun visor, of course. If you're in New York City, The Pool at The Rockaway Hotel + Spa  is a cool place to swim, lounge and discreetly people watch while swaying to beat of ambient music.  It's a vibe! Day passes are available for non-hotel guests Monday through Thursday (excluding private events, 10 am -7 pm).  Located in the heart of the Rockaway Beach community in Queens, New York, the Rockaway Hotel is just a few short blocks from the sand and surf. Besides the outdoor pool,  the  newly built 84,000 square foot hotel offers around 60 guest rooms, a restaurant, a rooftop bar, and a large event space. And it's a nice addition to the area.  When my husband and I visited the popular pool, we enjoyed yummy sips and bites poolside. Lounging chairs are first come, first serve so the early bird gets the spot of their choice. After chilling at t
