The Long Lost Glove

Saturday, December 1st, 2007

No. it’s not a typo. I am referring to OneColdHand.com, the Pittsburgh site dedicated to rejoining you and that one glove you “have no idea where it is”. Who knows, maybe you will find your match.

Jennifer Gooch, a graduate student in the Carnegie Mellon University School of Art started this site after finding a lonely glove, taking it and leaving a note for the owner, just in case the owner returned looking for it.  She now pins them to the wall with the vital stats, when, where, by who. So if you are in Pittsburg and lost a glove recently, pay Jennifer’s site a visit. New York might be next.

Now we wait for the map to the land where socks go and it will be happiness all around.

You can read the complete article in the Pocono Record. Many thanks to the Pocono Record and Associated Press for the image.

The British are coming! The British are coming!

Saturday, November 17th, 2007

New York has been invaded by British shoppers. With the dollar as low as it ischristmas03.jpg
against the Euro and primarily the Pound, shopping New York City is better than Disneyland (if you like that kind of thing). Capitalizing on this ,Virgin is offering 3 days shopping flights to Boston and New York.

Not long ago these puddle hoppers were out of fashion. New Yorkers that were interviewed said that they would be shopping on line.

I love the insanity of New York during the Holidays, but I prefer to be a voyeur than a participant. It is truly exhilarating. Gorgeous shop windows and lights everywhere and let’s not forget the Christmas Tree at the Rock. The streets are packed with people, big shopping bags and crowded public transportation. So much so that the MTA tried a package size restriction on what you can take in the subway during the Holiday Shopping Season last year. Shopping on line sounds great to me too.

For the visiting folk, it’s all part of the deal. It is one of the reasons why they come here anyway. As for me, I’ll shop online this year.

How to Wear that Vintage Find

How do you wear vintage hats? Is this Eisenberg pin from the 1950’s? How old is this ________?

This and many other answers can be found in the pages of Vintage Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Elegance and many other upscale couture fashion magazines now available at http:// verabattemarco.com

Fantastic finds for the fashionista, costume designer, aspiring designer and regular humans alike. Nice collection of very rare and scarce vintage magazines and fashion catalogs, including the much sought after Elegance French publication listing Haute Couture Collections twice a year.

Hi! My name is Vera

Saturday, June 23rd, 2007

Hello, my name is Vera Battemarco, so nice to meet you. I am a jewelry fanatic. I also happen to be designer and manufacturer…

No, this is not the 12 steps for Jewelry Anonymous, it’s just my first entry on this blog. In the upcoming posts, I will share with you my decades of experience in this field. No, I’m not that old. Just started early, very early, actually. When I was about 5 years old I started to make jewelry as my mother would take me along to art classes.

Enough about me (for now). I will be back posting soon. If you like this blog, show your love and backlink, will ya?
