Whitney Port at The Cosmopolitan Grand Opening and New Year's Eve Celebration with Jay-Z and Coldplay at Marquee Nightclub in The Cosmopolitan hotel.

It is no secret that one of the most important accessories that one must have during the winter months is a good scarf. I practically own a drawer full of them but of course I have my favourites. Highly prized is my Écharpe Plan de Maison, a souvenir from 101 Avenue des Champs-Élysées. Much to my consternation, it developed a nasty run that I could not ignore. And so, with a fine needle in hand, I painstakingly tried to mend it as best as I could, calling on the sacred Tinalak weavers of my country to help me in this task.

I decided to take Jeff on an adventure the very first day of 2011. In the 10 years that I have lived in DC, I have never been inside the Washington Monument. Seeing all those obelisks in Egypt made me appreciate more the tallest stone structure and tallest obelisk IN THE WORLD. So despite the overcast day, we headed out to the National Mall.

Standing at 555 feet 5⅛ inches the monument was built to honor the first U.S. President, General George Washington. In 1888, it was the tallest structure in the world, only to be replaced a year later by France's Tour de Eiffel.


The views were breathtaking even though you peer through small windows.
Can you imagine this on a bright, sunny day?

I did not know this, but the top is capped by an aluminum tip that served as lightning rod. It was the largest single piece of aluminum cast at the time. I was truly in awe whilst inside the Washington Mounument. Since it was a day of firsts, (1st of the year, 1st time inside the WM) I decided to carry my very first Louis Vuitton, the Monogram Reporter. LVoe it!!! Happy New Year!!!

New colourways are being released today, Jan. 1st for the Monogram Vernis Collection. They are Blanc Corail, Bleu Infinite and Terre d'Ombre. Infusing life to the collection by reinventing not only the Alma but the Wilshire, Brea, Melrose Avenue, Pochette SoBe, Zippy, Sarah, Cles and Porte Simple. I have yet to see them in real life to see how saturated the colours are. The Blanc Corail seems interesting but the two others are not outstanding. Afterall, doesn't Vernis suit the brighter colours?

Also being released today are the Monogram Vernis Leopard Collection. It's a combination of the Vernis leather with the Sprouse Leopard Print, a staple of the House of Vuitton. It will come in Rouge Fauviste, Bleu Infinite and Blanc Corail. The collection comprises mainly of small leather goods such as the Heart Coin purse (excellent sweetheart gift for V-day), Insolite and Sarah Wallet and Zippy Wallet and Compact. Accesories to compliment the line will also be released in bandeaus and the ever present cahsmere and silk stole as well as a heart key fob. (pics are NOT to scale) Visit www.louisvuitton.com.
