Say something to the person/s who tagged you.
Laura ~ you are so fabulously creative and intelligent – I have really enjoyed getting to know you through your blog!
If you could have a vacation home totally paid for, fully furnished anywhere in the world, where would you want it to be?On Aspen Mountain.

The beach on Fire Island.
Name 5 things you can’t live without. Cappuccino. Couture. Literature. Love. Lettuce.
What would you like to have in your hands right now?
Freshly picked raspberries, with or without champagne.
What is your favorite ice cream flavor?Jamoca almond fudge.
What would you like to get rid of?
My “eleven” – you know, those 2 pesky little lines between the brows that could probably be eradicated, at least temporarily, by a bit of Reloxin, the new wonder drug!
If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go?
Topshop in NYC.
What did you want to become as a child?
A gymnast or a writer.

What designer piece of clothing would you most like to own (new or vintage)?
I would adore a poufy Giambattista Valli dress, a Balmain blazer, or a vintage Lanvin dress – I actually own this one pictured at left from Ete 2007... I bought it at the Barneys Warehouse Sale a few years back and have no clue how to style it - it's gorgeous but backless and tres short!
CC is tagging ALL of her Fellow Fashionistas to rework, reword, revamp, and answer these fabulous queries – enjoy, darlings! Can’t wait to see your answers!
