Carry My World Pleated Tote
New favorite
The big sloppy bag look is not my style, so I was hesitant to try this tote but the reviews sold me. It just arrived and I can see this will be my new favorite. Very roomy yet it's well-tailored and I have no problem with the strap length; it enables you to hold it close to the body without that bulky crossbody big bag look. The side pockets are beautifully proportioned for my purposes (iPhone, water bottle, slender folding umbrella) and the interior space is ample. I usually don't choose bags that don't zip across the top (security concerns) but the quality magnet along with the bag's thin silhouette alleviate my concerns. And I was worried the lizard/smooth leather contrast in the trims would be too bold, but not at all. This is a gorgeous tote and well worth the sale price!

Perfect Bag
I have this bag in purple and absolutely love it! I receive complements on it very often. It holds even more than you would think. Unlike the other reviewers, the handle length is perfect for me. It fits nicely over my shoulder and I can also carry it with my arm down without it reaching the floor. Love it!

Perfect for me!
I use this bag as my carry-all. I always have my planner, wallet, sunglasses, and phone it it, but often I'm carrying multiple dance shoes, a change of clothes, a book to read, and an iPad all at once, and it all fits, and I can find it all, and I don't look like a pack mule. I love the front zipper pockets and the outside open pockets -- good water bottle placement, as well as quick access to things short term. The phone pocket inside fits my iPhone 5 in its case very nicely, and is easy to get out whether or not I'm holding the bag. This was exactly what I was looking for, a marriage of function and style. At the sale price it was in my affordable range, so, totally the perfect bag for me!

Love it.
It's stylish and roomy enough to carry my MacBook Air, notebook, pens, a scarf, a cardigan... seriously, everything I need in the office. So glad I picked this up.

Mixed feelings
I have wanted this bag for a long time - purple is my favorite color and I wanted the "grape" bag. I was a bit disappointed when the bag arrived and it was actually two-tone. The main part of the bag was a plum color and the trim/straps are darker - they look almost blue against the plum. I would have liked the bag to be all one color. I do agree with the other reviewers about the length of the strap. They are too short, and personally, I would have liked it to be larger overall to be called a tote. It is a beautiful bag, but more purse-size for me.
June 29, 2013
This bag is slightly smaller than the bag it's replacing, but with the structuring I can still fit everything including iPad or 13" laptop. I like the shorter strap. It lets you carry the bag securely on your shoulder for public transit but still able to reach for Kindle or phone. My only complaint is the visible silver zippers - the bag would look much classier if they were under a placket.
June 29, 2013
Great bag!
I'd been eyeing this bag for a few months, and then saw a promotion and jumped at the chance to buy it. It's a great bag: roomy, structured enough, comfortable to carry, very nice-looking, and with plenty of pockets etc. to help keep you organized. To make it completely PERFECT: how about increasing the strap length by about 1 inch? Also, I'd be thrilled if you added a center zippered pocket to "divide" the bag into two sections. And finally, how about offering it in more colors? Celadon green, teal, red, or (my favorite) olive green? I would definitely buy another.
June 19, 2013
Good quality, great color
I ordered this bag in the purple and I love it! The only complaint I have is that the strap is just a little too short. If the straps were just a little longer, it would be perfect! The quality and color of the leather are great, and it is very roomy!
May 12, 2013
Great bag
I recently purchased this bag and I LOVE IT!! Of course, I knew that I would. I have purchased multiple products from Levenger and not one has been a disappointment. This bag is roomy, organized and comfortable to carry. I have used it non-stop since receiving it and I have no doubt that it will be with me for many years. Thank you for your continued craftsmanship.

Short Strap Lessens the Quality
I purchased this in black. It is a nice looking bag, and the leather is of good quality. However, like another reviewer, I am disappointed because the straps are too short, and I cannot keep it on my shoulder. If I was able to, I would return this bag as it was somewhat of an investment in what I hoped would be my daily "go to" bag. Currently, I only use it on occasion.

Rahm Emanuel 'not in the room,' but 'very well tuned in'
BY FRAN SPIELMAN City Hall firstname.lastname@example.com September 9, 2012 7:14PM
Mayor Rahm Emanuel marches in the Mexican Independence Parade on 26th Street. Sunday, September 9, 2012 | Brian Jackson~Sun-Times
Updated: September 10, 2012 12:23AM
With parents on pins and needles and Chicago teachers poised to strike, Mayor Rahm Emanuel tried to go about his Sunday like any other — a parade, a street fair and then returning home to his kids.
But with a Chicago Teachers Union strike looming, it was a Sunday unlike any other, and Emanuel stayed in contact with his handpicked people inside the contract negotiations.
"He's getting updates as frequently as its allowed," spokeswoman Sarah Hamilton said. "He's very well-tuned into what's going on.
"He's not in the room, but [top aide for education] Beth Swanson is and she's his voice. It's pretty clear that when she's talking, she's talking for him."
During breaks in the talks, Swanson has been on the phone with Emanuel and passing the phone to School Board President David Vitale, Hamilton said.
Hamilton echoed Vitale's Saturday night assessment that talks were "close" to a settlement. She said city officials are hopeful for a resolution — but prepared for whatever happens.
During the day on Sunday, Emanuel attended the Mexican Independence Day parade and a street fair at the Misericordia home on the North Side.
Ald. Pat O'Connor (40th), the mayor's floor leader and the former longtime chairman of the City Councils' Education Committee, said the economic issues are not the hangup.
"They're close on the economic parts — but there are other issues that are holding it up and preventing them from signing off on the economic package," he said without elaborating.
But he did allow that he doesn't think a short strike would be "hugely devastating."
"We've been talking about it for weeks," O'Connor said. "Everybody has been steeling themselves for it. That being the case, you just hope that if they go out they keep bargaining and working to get it done. ...
"If it's a protracted strike, it may be something that has a lingering effect. If it's not, people in Chicago have seen this coming. The idea that it's here — nobody should be surprised. I don't think it's the end of the world or that it will have long lasting repercussions.
At stake for Emanuel is having parents of 350,000 kids scrambling at the last minute to make alternative plans if teachers walk out on Monday morning as threatened.
The city does have 144 "contingency" schools prepared to house kids from 8:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. during school days — but that's far short of the full school day.
Parents could have to take days off of work — or have their kids in the street. A worst-case scenario for Emanuel would be something terrible happening to kids while away from school. The city is already suffering through a spike in homicides this year.
For Emanuel, there's more at stake than just getting a deal done. It also depends how the deal gets done.
In an effort to preserve his signature plan for a longer school day, he has already agreed to hire 477 more teachers, allowing elementary school teachers to avoid working longer hours and only slightly increasing the time high school teachers will spend in classrooms.
But by doing that, he's on the hook for up to $50 million to fund that agreement. The question still remains where is that money going to come up, and the School Board has already agreed to drain its reserves to put into the budget.
If Emanuel agrees to a more expensive deal, he'll have no reserve funds to tap into next school years — and the looming threat of closing up to 100 more schools. That fear is one of the reasons teachers are intent on hammering out a recall policy for laid off teachers as part of the ongoing negotiations.
"If we wanted to commit money we didn't have, we would have solved this," O'Connor said. "But we're trying to be fiscally responsible."
"Public schools have become a real option for a lot of people. You gotta make sure whatever comes out of this, there's the expectation that there will be labor peace for awhile."
Emanuel campaigned on a promise of a longer school day — but also taking a strong stand with unions and not giving away the store. Not long after getting elected mayor, Emanuel helped get passed a school reform bill that made it harder for teachers to strike — a 75 percent 'yes' vote from teachers to authorize a strike— and mandated a longer school day.
Teachers, however, were able to come up with plenty of votes to authorize a strike.
"We had some success in Springfield when Rahm got elected, and they felt slighted by that," O'Connor said. "This is an opportunity to flex a little of their muscle."
O'Connor called strikes cyclical — and noted "new mayors get tested."
"Even if he gets this done relatively soon, even if there's a strike, people will be thrilled."

Emerging capital markets play an increasingly vital role in the global economy by opening up international supply and lower costs of capital, affirms ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) today in two reports.
The Rise of Capital Markets in Emerging and Frontier Economies and Making Capital Markets Work in Emerging and Frontier Economies are both launched during ACCA's Council visit to East Africa.
The first report reviews the academic literature on the development of capital markets, while the other is a collection of first-hand accounts and case studies from senior managers and professionals spearheading market development.
Speaking at a press conference in Uganda, where the reports were launched, Dean Westcott, ACCA's President said: 'Capital markets play an important role in promoting robust economic activity. Emerging capital markets are clearly an increasingly important source of finance to business. Broadening participation in company ownership, especially where the needs of minority shareholders are concerned, requires clear corporate governance, a responsiveness to the many needs of investors, consideration of independent representation on the company board and transparency of decision-making in the interests of all investors and wider stakeholders.'
Dean Westcott added: 'Developing capital markets need increasingly transparent corporate governance and ethical business approaches to encourage investor confidence. And in the future, we are sure that environmental, social and governance reporting are likely to become part of a broadening landscape of corporate disclosure and reporting.'
ACCA says that this complexity in market structures leads to a need for increasingly sophisticated financial management, which means that finance functions have to rise to the challenge and play a more central role in governance, risk and compliance, alongside financial reporting and management accounting.
Dean Westcott continued: 'Such complexity requires an organisation that is externally-focused, with its aims focused on building investor confidence and capable of delivering performance targets which bring shareholder value – and being able to measure and provide assurance on what shareholders value.'
ACCA believes that capacity building around financial systems is essential. This allows capital markets to enable the most promising firms – both large and small – to source funds more cheaply and reliably than would otherwise be possible. But in order to do this, these firms need access to reliable financial information, which in turn depends on the skills and competences of professional accountants.
Dean Westcott said: 'It is pleasing to see fledgling capital markets succeed, but as an accountancy body, it is important for us to understand how the profession can help support these developments further and promote financial knowledge and understanding.
'Investors cannot be expected to assume the risk that comes with investing in what is often a novel and illiquid asset class without the best quality information possible; and they cannot be expected to participate in markets where crucial information remains private. This is why policymakers and the accountancy profession around the world have long championed the value of disclosure and assurance and must continue to do so.'
Mr Westcott concluded: 'Our reports show that the perceived strength of accounting and auditing standards is a leading indicator of the health of capital markets and a strong predictor of their ability to drive economic growth. While the financial crisis of 2008–9 dented confidence in disclosures in developed markets, emerging markets have seen perceptions slowly recover and, perhaps as importantly, converge.
'The less developed frontier markets, on the other hand, are not keeping up, meaning that some of the most promising economies in the world may soon not have the capital markets to match their dynamism. This is a risk that we can't afford to take.'
Additional Background
- Both reports are available from the 'Related Links' section, to the left of this article.
- The case studies included in 'Making Capital Markets Work in Emerging and Frontier Economies' show how the path to capital market development can sometimes be rocky, but confirms that policymakers and the accountancy profession can help build capacity and stability.
- While focused primarily on Africa, the reports also includes stories of how capital markets have been built and sustained in the Caribbean and Cambodia.
Financial Literacy and Capacity Building
- One of the case studies in the 'Making Capital Markets Work' report is of a project by the Ugandan Capital Markets Authority, which has been working with ACCA to develop and deliver a training scheme for journalists reporting on the financial markets.
- The scheme, now replicated in neighbouring Kenya, enables journalists to communicate clearly what can be a highly technical subject, giving retail investors a sounder basis on which to make decisions. Confident retail investors in turn lead to more liquid and efficient capital markets.
- Capacity building around financial system is essential. ACCA estimates that nearly half (48%) of its membership in non-OECD countries work in financial centres; to improve their work prospects in the long run, ACCA works with governments and regulators around the world to promote market growth and develop capacity.
- ACCA has been supporting the work of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) about capacity building in emerging economies, stating that high quality accounting, financial reporting and auditing can play a crucial role in improving economic performance around the world.
- 'The Rise of Capital Markets in Emerging and Frontier Economies' reviews a compelling body of evidence to argue that improved disclosure is one of the few sustainable means of attracting liquidity to capital markets without sacrificing stability and sustainability.
- Both papers conclude that in emerging and frontier economies, there is no room for relaxing disclosure and assurance requirements.

Eight people were arrested and at least four pit bulls were rescued after police witnessed organized dogfighting take place in a Dolton industrial park Wednesday night. | Cook County Sheriff's Police photo

Updated: December 9, 2012 1:27PM
Eight people were charged Saturday after authorities broke up a dogfight Wednesday at an industrial park.
The eight people were charged with a felony count of attending or patronizing a dogfight, according to a release from the Cook County Sheriff's office. They are all expected to appear back in court on Tuesday.
Sheriff's police helped bust the dogfight Wednesday night in the 1500 block of 142nd Street in Dolton.
Authorities were tipped off about the fight when a resident called police about 7 p.m., Dolton spokeswoman TaQuoya Kennedy said.
Two people were immediately arrested and six others were cuffed after they were found hiding in the rafters of the building, sheriff's spokesman Frank Bilecki said.
At least 10 pit bulls were found and received medical treatment at a local humane society after showing signs of abuse and improper care, Kennedy said.
Those arrested and charged were:
◆ Reginald Bailey, 26, of Dolton, who was being held in lieu of $20,000.
◆ Rolando Davidson, 43, of Harvey, who was being held in lieu of $15,000.
◆ Michael Dubose, 56, of Country Club Hills, who was being held in lieu of $15,000.
◆ Anthony Fugate, 27, of Beecher, who was being held in lieu of $10,000.
◆ Donald Hudgins, 45, of Chicago, who was being held in lieu of $25,000.
◆ Willie McCray, 26, of Calumet City, who was denied bond because of a prior arrest warrant for murder.
◆ Shaquille Middleton, 18, of Country Club Hills, who was being held in lieu of $10,000.
◆ Arnulfo Salgado-Sanchez, 35, of Harvey, who was being held in lieu of $15,000.

Makes 8 servings
Including raw artichokes in a salad is an Italian trademark their flavor is fresher and milder than that of cooked artichokes.
Active time: 40 min Start to finish: 1 hr
- 1 lemon, halved
- 4 large artichokes (3/4 lb each)
- 1/2 lb frisée (French curly endive), coarse stems discarded and leaves torn into bite-size pieces
- 3/4 lb radicchio, trimmed, halved lengthwise, and thinly sliced crosswise
- 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 to 3 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
- Special equipment: a Japanese Benriner * or other adjustable-blade slicer
Squeeze juice from 1 lemon half into a large bowl of cold water, then drop same half into water.
Cut off stem of 1 artichoke and discard. Cut off top inch of artichoke with a serrated knife. Bend back outer leaves until they snap off close to base, then discard several more layers of leaves in same manner until you reach pale yellow leaves with pale green tips.
Cut remaining leaves flush with top of artichoke bottom with a sharp knife, then pull out purple leaves and scoop out fuzzy choke with a melon-ball cutter. Rub cut surfaces with remaining lemon half. Trim remaining dark green fibrous parts from base and sides of artichoke with sharp knife, then rub cut surfaces with same lemon half and drop artichoke into the acidulated water. Repeat with remaining artichokes.
Just before serving, slice artichokes paper-thin crosswise with slicer. Immediately toss with frisée and radicchio in a large bowl. Drizzle with oil and toss. Sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper and toss. Drizzle with vinegar (to taste) and toss again.
Cooks' notes: Dressing ingredients can be whisked together (instead of tossed into salad) 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature before using. Greens can be washed and trimmed 1 day ahead and chilled in a sealed plastic bag lined with damp paper towels. Artichokes can be trimmed (but not sliced) 2 hours ahead and kept in acidulated water. *Available at Asian markets, some cookware shops, and Uwajimaya (800-899-1928).

Christians may be tempted to join site like Christian Mingle, believing it to be a great choice for Christians interested in online dating. But is this really true? The answer is, it depends.
Let's first look at big, mainstream dating sites such as Match.com. Such sites do allow you to specify religion and search for other members who place a special emphasis on the importance of religion. The same thing can be done at other big dating sites like eHarmony.
What makes Christian Mingle different from those sites, however, is that allows you to provide more details about your religion. For example, the profile has places where you can specify the church you belong to, in addition to provide other facts about your religion. Moreover, because everyone on the site is Christian, you do not need to apply any filters when you search for other members.
Aside for that, Christian Mingle more or less functions like other dating sites. Is it the best site for you? Only you can answer that question, but because there is no cost to join the site and browse around, I encourage you to do so. To get a free account at Christian Mingle, go to http://onlinedatingtrials.com/.
Take a look at other dating offers at www.OnlineDatingTrials.com.

Gun control issue dominates 2nd District congressional race
BY NATASHA KORECKi Political Reporter firstname.lastname@example.com February 10, 2013 8:20PM
Former Illinois state representative and Democratic U.S. Congressional hopeful Robin Kelly speaks to the International Ministers & Community Alliance Thursday, Feb. 7, 2013, in Chicago after receiving their endorsement.

Updated: March 12, 2013 6:25AM
In the race for Jesse Jackson Jr.'s former congressional seat, candidate Robin Kelly, one of the front-runners in a field of 16 Democrats, has seized on the gun issue, trumpeting her 'F' rating by the NRA and pummeling her top two opponents for their past support for gun rights.
Kelly's laser-focus on guns arguably helped draw the interest of two SuperPACs into the 2nd Congressional District race, which so far collectively poured more than $700,000 into TV ads attacking her two top opponents.
But is Kelly, a former state rep, as pure on the gun issue as she's trumpeting?
Records show that when Kelly was chief of staff to then-Illinois Treasurer Alexi Giannoulias, more than $7 million in pension money was invested with Alliant Tech Systems, the world's largest ammunition manufacturer, which supplies Wal-Mart and Cabela's with ammunition as well as a small investment into Smith & Wesson, a top gun manufacturer.
The investment is a drop in the bucket when considering the billions of dollars in Illinois pension funds, and Kelly's campaign says she was far removed from making such a decision.
Still, one of her opponents, Debbie Halvorson, one of the targets of SuperPAC attack ads, wasn't about to cut her any slack.
"If this is going to be her one and only issue, this is a little less than honest," Halvorson said.
Another opponent, state Sen. Toi Hutchinson, who changed her position on an assault weapons ban — now supporting one — asked why Kelly, who claims to have played a major role in directing policy under Giannoulias, didn't urge against investing in weapons manufacturers when she was in a position to do so.
"Robin Kelly was the senior-most staffer in an office and . . . didn't lift a finger to stop the state from sending millions of dollars to gun and ammunition manufacturers," Hutchinson said. "She has repeatedly claimed to be an advocate for regular families and a fighter on guns . . . but she sent our tax dollars to the very gun manufacturers she says she's been fighting for years."
The Illinois State Board of Investment manages the investment of pension assets for the General Assembly, and the state treasurer is an ex-officio member of the board.
Kelly also has been criticized for accepting the endorsement of former candidate state Sen. Donne Trotter, who dropped out of the race as he awaits trial on a felony gun charge.
Kelly's spokesman calls it ludicrous to pin the blame for the investments on her.
"Robin did not sit on State Investment Board or have any advisory role during her time in the Treasurer's office. She would hope that the State of Illinois, like the City of Chicago, would take a thorough look at their investments," spokesman Jonathan Blair. "But trying to blame Robin Kelly for these investments is as ludicrous as blaming Senator Hutchinson or any other member of the state senate who approved the appointments to the state investment board that helped make those decisions."
It's just the latest dust-up over the gun issue in the race for the Feb. 26 primary in the 2nd district, which encompasses a diverse constituency with diverse perspectives on guns. It includes Chicago's South Side, where pervasive gun violence claims hundreds of lives every year, as well as portions of Will and Kankakee counties. Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel has proposed divesting the city's investments from gun manufacturers and at least one state pension system is considering doing the same.
"I know that district. It's more pro-gun than Robin Kelly thinks it is," Illinois State Rifle Association Executive Director Richard Pearson told the Chicago Sun-Times. "There are some pretty pro-gun people."
Pearson declined to provide more specific information about membership in the district.
A national poll says otherwise.
A Public Policy Polling national survey released last week showed that 39 percent of those questioned say they would be less likely to vote for a candidate who had the NRA's support to 26 percent saying they would be more likely to offer their support; 32 percent said the NRA had no influence.
The poll said 53 percent of voters supported stricter gun laws while 39 percent opposed them.
Hutchinson and Halvorson have both been lambasted for past NRA "A" ratings. At a forum last week, candidates were asked to raise their hands if they opposed Barack Obama's proposal to ban assault weapons.
Halvorson was the sole candidate to raise her hand. Halvorson points to the 500-plus murders last year in Chicago despite an assault weapons ban already in place for two decades. She supports universal background checks, enhancing penalties against straw purchasers as well as a gun registry.
Halvorson, a one-term congresswoman, became a target because polls had consistently shown her leading in the race. However, Halvorson appears to have struggled with raising money, claiming just $25,000 in receipts plus a $25,000 loan to herself. That puts her in a weakened position to battle the onslaught of TV attack ads.
Meanwhile, Hutchinson has changed her position, which, in part, previously won her a 92 percent rating from the NRA. She now supports a ban on assault weapons and high-capacity clips, telling the Sun-Times in an interview last month that the massacre in Newtown, Conn., helped shape her new stance.
Yet, she's the target of a TV ad by the political action committee Progressive Kick, hammering her for her A rating.
We strive to help elect progressive Democrats around the country. Halvorson & Hutchinson are far from it," Joshua Grossman, president of Progressive Kick, said in an email. "I'm especially frustrated with candidates like Hutchinson who says she's converted to being an opponent of the NRA after Newtown. It seems as though Hutchinson ca res more about Newtown than her town. After all, hasn't Chicago had several hundred gun deaths a year over the last several years?"
Hutchinson has said her state Senate district includes a rural swath of Illinois, which includes a pro-gun constituency that she was elected to serve. She also said she broke ties with the NRA when its executive vice president, Wayne LaPierre, suggested after Newtown that more school employees should be armed to protect themselves against intruders, rather than searching for common ground in the national gun debate.
Kelly, meanwhile, continues to pick up momentum in the race, out-raising her opponents with $200,000 in receipts by the end of January. Kelly's campaign released a poll last week showing she gained 11 points in a month, putting her in a statistical tie with Halvorson. Hutchinson reported about $135,000 in receipts, while Ald. Anthony Beale (9th) reported about $50,000. Beale, who says he owns several firearms, including a handgun, still says he supports Obama's gun agenda.
Another candidate, Joyce Washington, says the back and forth between the other candidates is a red herring. She said they miss the point that curbing violence involves putting more police on the streets and called on Rahm Emanuel to do so.
"It's time for an outsider, a reformer, a fresh face, a professional businessperson, not a professional politician," Washington said.

We know they make us taller and appear slimmer, that they sculpt the calf and lift the butt and arch the back like a dog in heat. But that is all so far below the level of consciousness, a million miles from the visceral interaction with a beautifully crafted piece of footwear.
The attraction seems to be on the instinctual level, inexplicable and yet powerful, as the 600 or so women at Forty Carrots' annual Wine, Women & Shoes luncheon at the Ritz could attest. The event was an extravaganza of shoe shopping, wine buying, picture posing and ogling of the "Sole Men," dapper dudes in tight black T-shirts serving drinks and high heels on silver trays. Paradise, in other words.
WWS is one of the best-attended fund-raising events locally, and I think it's the focus on our favorite accessory as well as the cause, a popular school with outreach parenting programs, that generates so much enthusiasm. "If I see a pair of shoes I like, then I have to have them," said Sarah Lamar of Sajedesign South, the design firm behind all the chic WWS promotional work. "I'm not really into jewelry—I'm not even wearing any! But I get excited about the right pair of shoes."
I get that. Few experiences compare to the sense of power and beauty that comes from striding into a room in a killer pair of heels. Sorry, guys, there's almost no way to describe it—this privilege is reserved for the ladies (and the drag queens, of course).
My first favorite pair of shoes was a pair of baby-pink glitter jellies, which, while still in primary school, I felt quite fancy wearing. Tatyana Sharoubim, owner of T. Georgiano's Shoe Salon on First Street, also remembers the first set she (pun intended) went head over heels for: a pair of black leather combat boots. Footwear runs in the Sharoubim family, with Taty's late father and uncle also in the biz, and after a lifetime around sharp shoes, she has her own take on why we love them. "That feeling you get once you put on your heel—you feel like a badass," she says. "It's awesome."
Bonnie Keller, a Saks employee onsite for the event, believes that the love of the shoe is inborn. "I've been at Saks for 15 years, and I'll see girls, even at three years old, who will make a run for the shoe department as soon as they come in. They always go right to the shiniest pair," she says.
WWS co-chair Emily Stroud looked divine, wearing basic black—and shiny—platform Mary Janes, complementing a black sheath with an embellished neckline. She showed me a cute video of her three-and-a half-year-old daughter trying them on, which Emily says she used to do as a child, too.
"There is just a natural draw to great shoes. Maybe because once you know your size the shoe always fits," she says.
I hadn't thought of that, but our feet are always the same size. Even on those days when the dress or pants don't fit right, my favorite shoes feel and look great. According to this logic, all the guests at the luncheon were already feeling pretty fabulous, but the fashion show ratcheted the emotion up to something like ecstatic. We got to see glamorous evening wear from Saks and more amazing stilettos, then one of the male models removed his shirt to reveal an incredibly cut chest. All the footwear, flash and flesh had the crowd of ladies rising from their chairs, screaming and dancing along.
Fitting the name of the event, some of the chicks definitely got into their cups—the after-party on the terrace went on until dusk—but I enjoyed the time Forty Carrots took to introduce us to a few of the women their programs helped. They hit the runway first, with big cue-card-style signs that told a piece of their story. One walked out, head held high, carrying a sign that read "fled from spousal abuse," and flipped it over to reveal the message "because of Forty Carrots, I'm helping my family feel safe." I got a little teary-eyed at that, and I wasn't even drinking.
When executive director Cheryl Andrews took the stage and pronounced us "all Miss America to Forty Carrots today," I actually believed her. The event raised $245,000 for parenting education programs, and everyone looked and felt amazing doing it.
A pair of high heels and supporting a good cause: Guaranteed to make any woman feel like the queen she is.

Trends from the New York Gift Fair: Nautical
By Heather Clawson
Blue Ocean Traders
This storage piece from Blue Ocean Traders would look great in a beach house. Assign each family member and guest their own drawer for stowing their summer accessories.
Dransfield & Ross
Pillows, like these from Dransfield & Ross, are an easy way to personalize a summer rental.
Accessories from HomArt are embellished with elegant marine motifs and make perfect summer hostess gifts.
John Derian
John Derian uses vintage designs for his twist on the trend. This tall vessel was one of the most beautiful accents I found at the fair.
Nauti & Co.
Nauti & Co., a young company out of Hoboken, New Jersey, offers a fresh take on classic and contemporary beach style. Their new duffel bag features rope handles and nautical hardware that is equally chic in the city and at the shore.
Spicher & Co.
The trend hits the walls too. Spicher & Co. is a great source of vintage-inspired paintings of ships and whimsical mermaids.
Thomas Paul
The Thomas Paul booth was bustling and his melamine tall ship plates and seashore motif accessories are ideal for both kids and clumsy beach house guests.
Room Service
Room Service's pillows would look as good on a sofa as they would in a boy's room.
Two's Company
I don't think there is an ocean-themed accessory that Two's Company doesn't make, so it's the perfect source for party favors, hostess gifts, and beach-house essentials.
Ox Bow Décor
All of Ox Bow Décor's pillows are made in Massachusetts, where the company is headquartered, so it's no surprise that their motifs pay tribute to the shore.

I couldn't deside which way the Compass looked best. I think It'll be a fun LomoWall.
I first shot this roll in my Diana in early March, in fact it was the third roll I shot in my Diana. It was also my intention to run it again in a different camera at a later date, so when I was rewinding it I wanted to make sure I didn't wind the leader into the canister. So I may have opened to soon, three times, Opps. The Second run was Downtown Belleville, Cruisin' on the Bayou Car Show and on the Boardwalk at Belleville Lake.
