Fashion is the Passion and Travel is the Need

  The holiday season allows me time to catch on my Fashion television Podcast because  there is a lot of waiting going on especially now with the airlines.  

 Well, Chado Ralph Rucci  is the truth. His clothes are beauty in the rawest form giving women  in my opinion especially  professional women that edge. The clothes utter nothing but grace, poise, elegance, funky, independent, and my favorite comfort. Like many women who are in professional settings now that sometimes the clothes we wear to these meetings, after five events, and to the other various office events are not that comfortable. I personally believe that we as women do not have to sacrifice comfort for beauty all the time.  

While Chado is dominating  the runways and high fashion were do we women look for these nice crisp looks without going into bankruptcy.  Especially for the fellow up and coming young women professional I recommend H&M, The Limited (every once in a while they have nice stuff) , New York & Co. , and Express to start. If you now any leave it and share it with the other readers. 

Well let's not forget the tradition of  travel Sundays. The two places I am suggesting is Los Angeles and Toronto. These places are  great for my west coast, mid-west, and east coast friends because either one of these great places is a hop skip away.  

Well LA-LA land as I love to call the lovely city of Los Angeles is that of cultural mecca for those of us who end up miss-planted Midwesterners and east coasters who seem to complain of the lack of culture in other western cities.  If you go onto travelzoo.com and southwest.com you will be able to find dirt cheap deals to LA.  For lovers of the arts I  recommend  the Getty Center, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Pantages Theater, and much more.  Why not do a show package enjoy the city and the theater.   

The shopping in that city is to die for and the restaurants is an epicurean wet dream. So to all the west coast people what are you waiting for? 

Now to the heart of the country  and those who are so busy just being busy.  My east coast and Midwestern people take a weekend and visit our friends to the north. Canada a beautiful country with lots to offer.  The city of Toronto which one of the cultural centers of the world offers not only a world renowned film festival, but world class theaters, restaurants, nightlife, and more . 

Since the lovely southwest.com has hooked up with westjet now its easier than ever to find good deals to go to Canada. The arts scene in Toronto is just amazing to say the least with shows such  You're a good man Charlie Brown, Hairspray, Jerry Springer The Opera,   and much more.  The  nightlife in Toronto is great with an array of choices just not nightclubs, but  actual jazz clubs, pubs, bars, and whatever to tickle your fancy.   

The neighborhoods each having their little special feel to them. The shopping in that city is great with quaint little boutiques, malls, open markets, and more.    

So, what are you waiting for getting to saving and packing go explore the great neighbor to the north. BUT remember don't forget your passport which is required to go into Canada. 

Until next time...... Au Revoir :)
