Different Directions' "The Winds in The WIllows"

Always last to leave the backstage dressing room is 11 year old, John Albert, who plays the well deserved lead of The Toad. As conscientious backstage organizing his many costumes as he is bringing life and imagination to his many characters on stage, John is definitely someone to keep an eye out for in any production.

When all elements fall perfectly into place, there is Chanel.

Not anywhere near the fashion world or Paris these days, but Chanel is still a sort of grown up Walt Disney for me...Karl Lagerfeld and his ready to wear designers held court with an absolutely exquisite show at the Grand Palais yesterday. Dotting the "i" was a live orchestra that transported this season's vision where only Chanel can travel to successfully. It's great to see the couture elements in ready to wear and to still see familiar faces on the runway mixed in with the "20" somethings.
