The Story of the Supremes
Victoria and Albert Museum (May 13-October 19)
Stop in the name of fashion!!! If you are lucky enough to be heading to
London in the coming months, you MUST see the 50 gowns worn by our
favorite 'girls." The Supremes had a huge influence on style and have
provided a great reference point for many great entertainers who
followed where they still reign supreme! www.vam.co.uk

your wild side with a Dolce&Gabbana animal print or a signature floral
print from Diane von Furstenberg, you can personalize your Google
homepage to reflect your taste and style. How very fashionable.

FASHION TIP:
We are all famous for raiding our boyfriends and husband's closet. This season there is another reason: The Boyfriend Jacket. All the designers are talking about how the onset of "strong" women like Pres Candidate, Hillary Clinton are influencing them for the fall. Belted or not, oversized jackets are the IT item!
