When Nora Efron passed away from Leukemia in 2012, she was the wet dream of thousands of Nebraska girls who live there but dream of NY. She was not only original, sharp & witty, but she also left us a legacy: the Turtleneck! I certainly love this look and admire everybody who wears it, yet - neither my daughters, their friends, my nieces & their friends, my contemporaries and last but not least, myself are wearing it. It is too risky to put it on and go out of the house not knowing when I will start feeling choked, or God forbid a small heat wave, or the room will be overheated..... Zillion reasons I will not dare wear one....
With Resort hitting the stores & vacations at our door step, here are my choices for all events.
* Endless Summer with garden flowers. The magic of the Garden of Eden.
Graphic & Sporty Stripes - GSS. Sporty yet Edgy, my definite choice.
Check Mate - Bold checks for this season. This is a definite statement.
The Star of track suits - the ultimate pant!
White crispy shirt - to go back to all the above.
Enjoy!

When we took on social media a year and a half ago, I had the same look on my face as I did at the beginning...

Wrapping up another season of shipping and selling, our industry can be challenging in staying in the present moment as we always think ahead.
So now I want to pause and thank you all so much for another strong season together. We learned from each other and supported one another.
We will move forward and adjust, together, to the changes the business and the world bring.
May we all feel safe and happy this holiday season.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Yael.
" I want my songs to be direct and immediate, nothing that should stay forever. I do not want a life insurance on my work" - this was said by Leonard Cohen in 1966. He was then a young Jewish-Canadian poet who has won a $2000 prize for his talents. With this money he kept a house in the Greek Island Hydra and was head over heals in love with Marianne who he has described: "Marianne. Perfect." He could not make a living as a writer in spite of the excellent critics he received, he could not pay his bills, he could not keep the house in Hydra. In his countless interviews, he told interviewers: "My options were either to...
