ON THE OLE ONES AND TWOS: Erik Satie "Velvet Gentlemen", Fleetwood Mac "Tusk", Philip Glass "Einstein on the Beach"

FAVORITE MOMENT IN THE SUN: watching the Brooklyn Cyclones (minor league) baseball game with my dad, eating a fat NY pretzle and roasted peanuts as the sun set over Coney Island. Ah, to be home again. I heart NY.

MUST -HAVE PURCHASE FOR FALL: I'm looking for a shiny, skinny, mini-dress to pair with black cashmere tights.

WHAT TO PACK COME THE COLD: Birkenstocks

STAFF PICK: KJL Kenneth Jay Lane laquered animal rings

ET POURQUOI: I love love love costume jewelry. They remind me of something some super moldy-moneyed eccentric lady might wear to play bridge with the girls, if the girls were say, over 75. I love that bizarre flat tucked away brownstone vibe. Obviously, these babies take their cue from Cartier animal jewelry but their priced in such a way that even us downtown hippie types can afford.

*KJL Kenneth Jay Lane laquered animal rings in bird, cougar and calf models. Priced at $140 each and in mint condition.
