Monica Pedersen: Make it Beautiful
March 7, 2013 by Monica Pedersen
Monica-Pedersen
The golf party was the last shoot I did for Monica Pedersen Make It Beautiful, and one I had been thinking about doing for a long time. I have been married 15 years and one of the best pieces of advice I received before I got married was from my father. He said, “Kid, find a hobby together so that 30 years from now you don’t wake up on a Saturda...

Pavoni

Lorena Azizeh

Lorena Azizeh
There once was a little girl named Lorena. For her, looking down was the key to success. At five years old, she rummaged around the floors of Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus while her mother browsed through the beautiful racks of clothes. Fallen beads from dresses filled her palms and gave her a small glimpse of the future. “The first pie...

I’m going to just come out and say it: my closet is a disaster. Mounds of clothes sloppily folded in nonsensical piles of chaos; belts, books and boxes lost in some far-off foreign corner, buried deep for future wardrobe archaeologists to unearth. But if Melanie Fascitelli asked for some private time in there, I wouldn’t turn her down – and it h...
