Paige Gamble, who’s that? I know, I didn’t know who this amazing and brilliant designer was until I came across her work on one of my favorite bag reviewers, The Bag Snob! Ok, so I might have missed out on something huge but I’m catching up and let me tell you, Paige Gamble will soon be a household name; well, if you’re obsessed with nice, quality bags.
Paige Gamble is based out of none-other New York City where she produces products that are handcrafted in the finest materials in the world. These bags are so exquisite, there’s a video on her website to show you exactly how to open these clutches; I know, I started to giggle when I saw it. According to Kelly of Bag Snobs, Paige is opening her very first store in Aspen and I can’t wait to hear of the amazing art she will draw for us.
I have to tell you, I had a hard time choosing just one clutch (I know, it’s hard to believe) so, naturaly I had to pick two bags. The very first bag (Sapphire Python and White Flowers) has to be my favorite. I can see this clutch being paired with simple shoes and a killer cocktail dress or stunning ballroom wedding gown.
My second favorite is the White Matte Python and Green Turquoise Wheels. This one is so easy to be paired with a very simple, yet elegant white mini gown and a pair of Turquoise neck piece would stop traffic. Every girl should be able to stop traffic in time square!
Well, what do you think? How would you wear one of these clutches?
I’ve died and gone in clutch heaven,
Violaine Diogene

By now, I trust that you know my healthy love affair with shoes. Certainly one of my favorite things to write about is shoes. One of my favorite and dearest brides is taking a daring and fun approached to her wedding ensembles by wearing a pair of bold colored shoes (Brian Atwood Orange ribbons) with her bright white Vera Wang dress. And you guessed it; she prompted me to write about shoes.
I love the idea of wearing a pair of diva shoes in place of the traditional white shoes. No, there is absolutely nothing wrong with wearing white shoes if that’s what your darling little hears desire, but just think about the amazing contrast of pairing your amazing designer gown with a stunning pair of diva shoes.
Because of my love of shoes and because these shoes lack nothing at all, I’ve included just a few of my favorite pairs. I simple need to hit to lottery to afford each and every single pair in my collection below. To view each shoe’s designer, simply click on the shoe and a window will open with designer’s name.
What do you think? What color shoes are you wearing for your big day? Seriously, nothing pleases me more than to hear your thoughts on my posts.
In shoe bliss,

Today while trying to get my annual bargain at one of my very favorite stores in the world, (Saks Fifth Avenue) I ran into one of my grooms whom was also out shopping. He was in the men’s department in front of a mirror receiving what appeared to be a valuable lesson in tying a tie. And you guessed it, I had this “aha” moment and here I am writing a series on the different ways for a man to tie his tie but most importantly, I’m really about this for the ladies. If you’re a wife, the future wife or woman in a man’s life, you need to know how to tie his tie. This is one of the nicest and even the sexiest thing a woman can do for her man (in my humble opinion of course).
A few years ago, I learned how to tie a tie at A Macy’s in downtown Boston (I really wanted to impress my husband) and to my surprise, it was much more difficult than I ever imagined but once I learned, it was actually much easier than I had ever imagined. Now, I know this might sound odd, but the type of tie, color of the tie, and type of knot you use on a tie all can convey into a certain meaning. Try to keep up; Take the Windsor knot for example. The Windsor knot is a knot that exudes confidence and power due to its wide, triangular shape. Falsely named after the Duke of Windsor, the Windsor knot (also known as the full Windsor or double Windsor) is usually worn for formal occasions. This type of knot looks best worn with a shirt collar that is considerably cut-away.
I’ve included some very detailed instructions as well a video for you to learn this very important skill at your own pace. Next week, we’ll look into tying a different knot. I hope buy now it’s evident that I want to hear from you. I love to hear your thoughts on my post. I hope I’ve inspired you and challenged your minds in the past few months.
Always hoping to inspire you,
Violaine Diogene
Step 1: Lift up the collar of your shirt, put the tie around your neck so the wide end hangs down on the side of your dominant hand.
Step 2: Cross he wide end over the front of the thin end a few inches below your neck.
Step 3: Slip the wide end up through the back of the V-shape made by the two ends, pulling it out toward your non-dominant hand.
Step 4: Wrap the wide end around the knot and slip it up through the back of the V-shape made by the knot.
Step 5: Tuck the wide end into the front loop of the knot.
Step 6: Tug on the wide and thin ends gently from below the knot until the knot is tight.
Step 7: Hod the thin end with your non-dominant hand and slide the knot up to your neck with your hand.
Step 8: Flip your collar down and get going.

A few years ago, I was privileged enough to plan a wedding in Bora Bora and stayed at perhaps the most amazing hotel on the planet; The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort. My bride Melisa who’s wedding is next October just informed me that she’s going to Bora Bora for her honeymoon and that prompt me to start writing about amazing properties for one; destination weddings and two, your honeymoon. Each week I’m going to research different properties from all over the world and present them to you. Since The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort prompted this conversation, it’s only befitting that I started with them besides, having a personal experience there does not hurt.
Just saying the name Bora Bora stirs the wanderlust in any traveler. The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort affords the most impressive accommodations in the South Pacific combined with a distinctive interpretation of personalized service elevate St. Regis Resort, Bora Bora to a new level of splendor with effortless elegance. From the Oasis Pool, our own natural wonder; to the central pool, with a swim-up bar; to the saltwater private lagoon, luxurious villas, the 13,000 square foot Miri Miri Spa located on its own private island, all edged by powdery sands and a tranquil lagoon. One of my personal favorite features in this resort is the swim-up bar. I know, I’m smiling just thinking about it. But three delectable restaurants await you, ranging from Mediterranean to Pacific Fusion cuisine.
What’s an amazing property without one of my favorite services; St. Regis’s Butler Service! Every hotel should include a butler service and believe me, that is one amazing service. No request to small or large. The very much celebrated St. Regis Butler ensures that everything is possible – from arranging an unforgettable day of yachting and diving, a rose petal turndown to supervising every detail of a lavish “at home” dinner with family and friends, their butlers will take facilitate all on your behalf. In every meaning and in every way, St. Regis Resort, Bora Bora is the ultimate resort experience.
Off course you know I’m going to show you some pictures of the property but certainly visit them online and contact us if you would like us to plan your honeymoon for you. You know how much we value your input. Tell us about your honeymoon plans. Where are you going? How did you decide on that particular location? Send me some pictures and I’ll include them in our new section of “a honeymoon of a lifetime”.
Always with you in mind,

Yes, I pinky promise you these cakes are eatable. No, please do not allow how stunning and amazing they are to fool you into thinking they’re just a seating piece of art. A very close friend of mine in New York sent me a few pictures of a cake she was lucky enough to eat while attending a wedding over the weekend. She said “V, the cake was amazingly beautiful AND they managed to make it so moist and yummy”! I couldn’t stop laughing over the phone. The bride was happy to announce the cake was made by non other Eat Cake Be Merry! So, naturally I had to go and get more information on this baker who designed such amazing cakes. Below is are the few pictures I was able to get for you.
What do you think? Aren’t these the most beautiful cakes ever? I love how simple some of them are and still so amazingly elegant.
With cakes on my mind,

At first I wasn’t sure about writing on this series but after the few emails I’ve received and approximately 6 phone calls from readers of the blog, I’m thrilled that wrote on this. With that said, in the past few days, you have your scents straight, (Perfume Etiquettes; Part One), you have a sence of the different notes in your perfume (Perfume Etiquettes: Perfume Notes), Now the big question is, how do you wear your perfume?
Well, believe it or not, the application of perfume is somewhat of an ancient art. Yes, I said an ancient art… and no, I’m not being dramatic (well, maybe just a little tad bit). The best way to get the most out of your perfume, whether it’s an oil base, a daytime perfume, a liquid spray, a rich perfume, a budget perfume, or an evening perfume, it’s to be applied to your pulse points.
Pulse points? Yes, pulse points. Pulse points are parts of the body that heats up the fastest. The most common pulse points are the throat or on the sides of the throat, behind the ears, inside of the elbows, inside of the wrists, under the arms, and the most unexpected places which are at the belly button and behind you knees. All of these areas are the areas where your pulse is the most close to the skin, the most visible, and the heat from your blood coursing through your body will warm up your skin the most quickly. These are the best places to apply your investment in these fragrances because when your skin is warmed by your blood’s natural flow, the oil or the alcohol in the perfume begins to evaporate into the air around you. When you apply perfume to all of your pulse points, you walk around with a very slight but significant aura surrounding your body which allows other to smell that lovely perfume you’re wearing.
Even though, this may seem a bit much, but I’ve found the best way to apply perfume and really end up using less of the perfume is by getting an entire set which contains the skin lotion and shower gel. When using the shower gel and the skin lotion, you’ve already prepared your body to receive the perfume as both the lotion and shower gel already contained a little bit of the fragrance. I also would recommend applying the perfume to the bare skin and not on your clothing (remember the pulse points). As well, you should spray a dab of the perfume on at least 3-5 of your favorite pulse points. If you choose to apply the perfume on your wrists, I wouldn’t recommend rubbing your wrists together after you’ve applied the perfume as this breaks down the scent. I’ve also found that is you spray lightly on the hair, the scent can last all day which I absolutely love.
Now, one perfume might smell amazing on another and it carries a completely different smell on you. This is because PH levels (amount of acidity in our skin) also varies slightly from person to person. Our individual levels of PH will determine how each ingredient in a fragrance will react. If you experience this, I would recommend going to a custom made perfume shop to test your PH Levels and see what kinds of oils will blend with your PH Levels. This can be on the expensive side, but it’s well worth it. I had this done a few years in Manhattan and I love the results which enabled me to choose several different perfumes base on my PH Levels.
Designing your perfume wardrobe in my opinion is just as essential as designing your clothes wardrobe. Putting this wardrobe together requires at a minimum 4 different perfumes. My personal perfume wardrobe includes 6 different perfumes. I’m a die hard 100% perfume fan but I do have an Eau de Toilette in my perfume wardrobe.
This wardrobe is complimented with a bottle of Chanel No 5 which to me is a must have perfume. Because this is the most expensive bottle I have, I really only wear this perfume on special occasions. Prada Tendre Eau de Parfum with a to die for Atomizer is also for a special evening out with my husband. Now, for those of you who do not know me on a personal level, I love, love and love this Atomizer! And for those of you who knows me on a personal level, stop laughing! Vera Wang, The Fragrance is worn on a rare occasion when I didn’t plan an evening and I just want something fresh but still amazing to wear. J’adore by Dior and Trésor are my signature scents. I refer to them as my signature scents because I’m often told by people that they know if I was in a room because I leave my “signature” scent behind. Last but not least, is my every day perfume which is an Eau de Toilette by Bvlgari called Rose Essentielle.
Now, you know I have to leave you some pictures from my personal wardrobe. Well, what do you think? I know it’s been a long series but it’s my hope that it was informational to you. What do you think of a Perfume Wardrobe? What kinds of perfume are in your wardrobe?
Always thinking of you,

Yesterday, we discussed the several different concentrations of perfumes and how different versions of the fragrances are created (Perfume Etiquettes: Part One). A perfume’s scent depends upon its combination and type of ‘notes’. Each note is categorized into a scent family. Just like the individual notes of a song make up the melody, the notes in a perfume produce the final, blended scent. These notes must blend well together and in return, we have a masterful scent.
Just as there are different types of note family categories, perfume notes are also classified according to their lasting power. In the perfume world, there are three notes of this type. According to Angela Harris, the top note in a perfume is its first impression. The top notes are sometimes called head notes or “notes de tete”. This is the scent that you smell when a perfume is first sprayed or applied. The top note scent is the first scent, but it also lasts the least amount of time. Top notes usually last less than fifteen minutes. Citrus type scents are most commonly used for top notes.
Middle notes are the scents in a perfume after the top note has evaporated. Middle notes are also called heart notes, central notes, and “notes de coeur”. Middle notes in some perfumes may take an hour or longer to develop, but usually start to emanate in just a few minutes. Most middle notes last an hour or longer. Middle notes are usually floral scents.
Base notes, or “notes de fond”, are the last notes in a perfume to become apparent. Middle notes and base notes comprise the ‘essence’ of the perfume. After the top notes have disappeared and the middle notes have started to fade, the base notes become more prominent. Base notes last longer than other perfume notes, usually several hours. Base notes tend to be more rich than other perfume notes. Base notes tend to be from woodsy or earthy fragrance families.
When shopping for new perfume, keep these notes in mind. Don’t buy a perfume right away. Apply the scent to your skin. Wait for the top note to evaporate. Leave the store. Experience the middle note in about an hour. If you like the middle note, wait for the base note. This is the most important note to evaluate. If you like the base note as well, you’ve found a winner
My sweet darlings, I promise you, a brilliant perfume is a bit like an abstract painting; It takes time to understand it and appreciate the true beauty of the fragrance. But with the right information, you will appreciate having such having it in your collection. Tomorrow, we’ll discuss the proper way to wear your perfume and storing your perfume and that will be the end of the series. Below are some of my favorite perfumes containing some amazing notes.
So, you know you have to let me know your thoughts on this post. I know it’s a long series but I’m hoping that I’ve shed some light and given you some knowledge on perfumes.
Hoping to inspire you,
Violaine Diogene

One of my favorite things or should I say accessory is a nice bottle of perfume. I love the way perfume adds to my femininity and simply how it makes me feel. So, with all the different versions of fragrances, I thought it would be a great idea to educate those whom perhaps are not as familiar with how the different versions of the fragrances are created.
After I wrote the original post and read it, the post was overwhelmingly long and with that, I’m thinking it would be better to break it down into series and I’ll post everyday to accommodate the lengthy series. In the first series, we’ll discuss the different kinds of perfumes and how they’re formulated, shelf life, how to apply the perfumes which will maximize use of the perfume and we’ll also feature the different designers whom impacted this 10 Billion Dollar Industry.
What are fragrances made from?
Most fagrances are complex combinations of natural materials, such as plant and flower extracts, and these oils and extracts determine how intense the scent is and how the perfume will last when sprayed on the skin. In order to stretch the scent, alcohol is an essential ingredient in the fragrance as it is used as a liquid base for perfume and the ratio of alcohol to scented perfume concentrates determines what the final concoction is labeled.
From highest concentration to least, the different forms of perfume are:
• Perfume, also called extract or extrait perfume, can include 15-40% perfume concentrates. This is the purest form of scented product and is the most expensive as a result.
• Eau de parfum contains about 7-15% perfume concentrates. This is the most popular and common form of perfume. It provides a long-lasting fragrance and generally doesn’t cost as much as extract perfume.
• Eau de toilette has around 1-6% perfume concentrates. This makes for a light scent that doesn’t linger as long as the more intense versions. It was originally intended to be a refreshing body splash to help people wake up in the morning.
• Eau de cologne is sometimes used interchangeably with the term eau de toilette. However, the concoction began as the name of a light, fresh fragrance mixed with citrus oils and was made popular by Napoleon. Some perfumers today have a version of this called eau fraiche.
Famous Early Perfumes:
Ernest Beaux, born in December 8, 1881, in Moscow Russia, had the honor of creating what became perhaps the most famous perfume in the world; Chanel No. 5 for Coco Chanel in 1921. According to Osmoz, Chanel No. 5 is a mythical perfume and the undisputed leader of creative fragrances, Chanel N°5 is the number one seller in the world. Mademoiselle Chanel, whose haute couture business was very fashionable in the 20’s asked Ernest Beaux, a Russian perfume creator to develop a “woman’s perfume that smells like a woman.”. He showed her two series of creations numbered 1 through 5 and 20 through 24. She chose the ”fifth sample”. For the first time Ernest Beaux had incorporated synthetic substances, aldehydes, in his formula – Blended with may roses and jasmine from Grasse, they formed a mysterious and indefinable scent. A work of genius! No-one had ever dared to deviate from single flower scented perfumes before. A superstitious woman, Chanel introduced her new collection on the fifth of May, the fifth month of the year, with the fifth sample as selected, and she named it N°5.
I must onfess to you, Chanel No. 5’s superb quality and undeniable sexy scent truly intrigues me. This sexy fragrance is for the true classy lady who’s not afraid to follow her own scent. The lady who wears Chanel No. 5 has a fragrance wardrobes of at least six different perfumes, rather than a single signature perfume, adoring one exquisite perfume for evenings and special occasions. And this, my dear is certainly an evening and special occasions perfume.
Below are some of my absolute favorite Chanel perfumes. Tomorrow, we’ll discuss how to wear your perfume and we’ll also feature another designer who’s engraved their names in the industry. Well, what are your thoughts on this post? How much do you know about perfumes? Let me know your thoughts on the post.
Inspired by you,
Violaine Diogene
The now and forever fragrance. The ultimate in femininity. The most powerful, concentrated and long-lasting form of fragrance; the fullest expression of the perfumer’s art. The classic bottle signifies personal luxury and is an attractive addition to any dressing table.
Sexy, fresh oriental fragrance recalls the irrepressible spirit of the young Coco Chanel. An elegant, luxurious scent in a classic signature bottle, perfect for the dressing table or for travelling.
Clean and sheer, warm and sexy. Difficult to define; impossible to resist. An elegant, luxurious spray closest in strength and character to the parfum form. The sleek, portable signature bottle is perfect for the dressing table or for travelling.
A decidedly young scent . . . for those who dare to dream. The most powerful, concentrated and long-lasting form of fragrance; a constellation of orbiting scents. Floral notes merge with sensual, sweet and spicy elements for a hint of sexiness and delicious naughtiness.

Well, finally the moment has arrived and you think your man of how many year is about to pop the question. Your best friend has giving you a hint by asking “Nikki, what size are your rings?” When you heard those six words in your lovely ears, your heart just about jumped out of your chest. I know, I’ve been there.
Since we’re in December and this is the month when most men propose to that special lady in their lives, I thought this is a great opportunity to write about one of my absolute favorite things on the planet; Diamonds. Whatever the occasion, birthday, anniversary, Christmas, my husband knows that he can never fail if he has 1-a nice Tiffany’s box or diamonds. I’m a very simple girl.
Gentlemen, I know a lot of you love online shopping, as do I; and although doing your ring shopping online may save you time…it can also get difficult. You might need her to get to try the ring on. See how it sparkles and feel the weight. What looks good in a magazine may not be what she imagined when she is wearing it. I promise you that I don’t think there’s ever such a things as “to big” when it comes to diamonds, but in all fairness, I have to tell you that if you have a 4-carat ring in mind, it may be too much for her petite hand. What kind of cut does she like? She may prefer an Emerald cut, but loves the luster of the Radiant cut or Cushion cut. This is one purchase you want to take your time with.
Finding the perfect ring may not be as easy as it looks. I promise you if you know and remember the big 4 C’s in the diamond bible, selecting a diamond will be much easier. What are the 4 C’s you ask? Cut, Color, Clarity and Carat Weight off course! Although knowing the art & science to your diamonds is important, you still should leave it up to the pros to help & guide you through the process.
The 4 C’s.
Carat Weight
Diamond size is determined by its carat weight. One carat is divided into 100 points. A 50 point diamond is 1/2 carat or .50 carats. Carat was derived from (believe it or not) the use of the carob plant seed. See our charts in the drop down info menu’s above to get an idea of the physical size of a diamond.
Cut
This term is used to describe the quality of the cut (not the shape) of the diamond.
A well cut diamond is better suited to handle light internally creating more scintillation and sparkle (fire). Proportions and symmetry as well as polish are taken into consideration.
Very Good-Exceptional brilliance with few and only minor outer marks.
Good-Good brilliance. Some outer marks.
Medium-Slightly less brilliance. Some larger outer marks.
Poor-Less brilliance. Large or many outer marks
Color
A diamonds color is at its best by not showing any color at all. Diamonds are mined in a range of color, white to faint yellow or brown, to the very rare fancies such as pink, blue and green
D or EF are Colorless
G or HI are Near Colorless
J or KLM are Faint Yellow
N OPQR are Very light Yellow
SZ Light are Yellow
Clarity
A Diamond’s clarity is determined when viewed by a trained eye under 10 power magnification. Most diamonds contain internally tiny natural birth marks known as inclusions. Fewer and smaller inclusions result in increased passage of light. This is the essence of a diamond’s brilliance and fire.
IF Free of inclusions under 10 power magnification
VVS Very few, very small inclusions under 10x magnification, difficult to find
VS Some small inclusions recognizable by an expert under 10x magnification
SI Several small inclusions, recognized under 10x magnification
I1 or PI Inclusion recognizable under 10x magnification. Not diminishing the brilliance
I2 or P2 Larger and or many inclusions, slightly diminishing the brilliance recognizable with naked eye
I3 or P3 Large and or many inclusions diminishing the brilliance
Below is just a guide to give you ideas of the different cuts and because these are diamonds, I have to tell you that I absolutely, positively love each and every single cut. But my very favorite had to be this stunning little number which is featured first. As always, I would love to know your thoughts on the rings below. Have you and your man started to look for rings? Gentlmen, have you started to look for a ring? If so, what are your thoughts on these rings? What kind of ring are you looking for? Best of all, how will you propose? I would love to know your plans for a future post on the best proposals and you’ll be entered to win a grand prize. More details to come….
With my grooms in mind,
Violaine Diogene
For the courageous trendsetter always looking for something unexpected, this platinum and diamond engagement ring, pictured with a round brilliant-cut center stone, features diamond studded thrice-split cathedral shoulders. Rare pink diamonds are set in rose gold in the central channel.
Display some shine with this unexpected engagement ring, featuring three bright diamonds encircled by Tacori’s signature milligrain. The ring’s unique criss-crossing shoulders are accentuated with alluring diamond pave.
Brighten an emerald-cut diamond with two emerald-cut side stones and a milligrain-accentuated shining, streamlined band of channel-set princess-cut diamonds. The sides of the band are finished with signature crescent silhouette diamond details.
Stylish and classic at the same time, snappy trillion-cut diamonds make this diamond engagement ring soar. A crown of round diamonds bloom a beautiful oval center stone for sophistication and glamour.
High-polished and straightforward, this diamond engagement ring is for the woman who knows what she wants: streamlined, with tapered baguettes and diamond design details, for a ring that is divine from every angle.
Elegance and opulence come together with this engagement ring for an oval-shaped diamond. The band tapers with fans of baguettes, sharp hand-engraved signature Tacori flourishes and lacey crescent silhouette details along the sides of the band.
I love this luminous setting, with two trapezoid-shaped side stones and sleek channel-set princess cut diamonds illuminating a princess cut center stone. Tapered platinum and crescent silhouette details give this ring a splendid finish.
A beautiful juxtaposition of modern, yet traditional; classic, yet unconventional. A stunning emerald-cut center stone with two intensifying emerald-cut size stones on a shimmering, pave-set platinum band, is made even more refined with alluring secret diamond details on the sides.
