To celebrate women’s history month Diane Von Furstenberg  created the “Proud to be a Woman” items.10% of the sales will be donated to Vital Voices.

Lois and I have a sincere admiration for Diane Von Furstenberg.Not just the Label but, the Woman herself.An example of class,intelligence, independance devoid of the elitism that can plague fashionistas”:

Diane Von Furstenberg in February’s Town & Country: “The reason for my career was to be financially independent  precisely because I married a prince. Egon was very eligible, good-looking; he’s a prince; he’s an Agnelli. But marriage was not a goal for me at all. When I got pregnant I was absolutely shocked. The last thing I wanted was for people to look at me like, ‘She got him!’ So then, more than ever, it was important for me to have a career. I knew what kind of woman I wanted to be a woman who did not depend on her husband.” [Inside DVF]

Lois and I can  just go on and on over Diane Von Furstenberg one classiest, pro women in fashion today .Her Collaboration with Warner Brothers "Wonder Woman" Launches this month!

There’s a bunch of new stuff up at ShopBop, including some dresses by one of my all time faves, Diane Von Furstenberg. I’m nearing the end of my tolerance for this summer’s all-the-rage trend of short and basic jersey dresses, but at least this one takes a more daring approach in terms of color and pattern:

^^It’s signature DVF, but something about the print is brighter and bolder than is typical for her.

Love ya,

Lois (still feeling like crap and wishing I lived in Canada so I could purchase Tylenol with Codeine over the counter!)
