ORIGINAL CYN
It's not often that we fall in love with a website,
but when Cynthia McGrath sent us www.originalcynjewelry.com, which features
her adorable and well priced jewelry pieces, we knew we had to share
it with you. And as you can see, one of America's most famous mother-daughter
duo likes Original Cyn too.

AMAZONIA AT STANFORD UNIVERSITY
From May 25 to August 21, 2005, the Cantor Arts
Center at Stanford University presents an exhibition of brilliantly
colored feathers and costumes that celebrates ceremonies and
rites of passage unique to these people. "Vanishing Worlds:
Art and Ritual in Amazonia" showcases rare works that are
the surviving expressions of these cultures that call upon a
range of physical and magical forces. The exhibition includes
an array of more than 150 pieces: ritual objects, including full
body costumes, masks, feather headdresses, and body ornaments,
as well as domestic and utilitarian pieces such as basketry,
weapons, pottery, and textiles.

DIOR HOMME SHANGHAI
By Timothy Hagy, Paris Editor
Dior Homme continues its global expansion with the opening
of a new boutique in Shanghai. Like previous stores in
New York, Tokyo, Milan and Paris, the architecture, designed
by Hedi Slimane, perpetuates the
spirit of the Dior Homme atelier located at 40 rue François
Ier in Paris. Occupying a surface of 150 meters located
at Plaza 66, 1266 Nanjing Road West, Shanghai, the space
is defined by reflection and break in movement. Crush-effect
polished mirror steel walls produce the space's perspective
and induce flow. Fitting Rooms, designed by artists Sean
Dack and Liam Gillick, create an experience of visual
intimacy. Seating takes the form of sonic chairs designed
by Hedi Slimane.

NOSTALGIA
Sometimes American fashionistas can get
nostalgic for the "good old days" when
we dreamt of cowboy and cowgirl outfits and our very own palomino ponies.

OUR FAVORITE MOISTURIZER
Yu-Be (pronounced "YOO-BEE"),
the #1 selling medicated, vitamin-enriched skin care cream in
Japan is a Glycerin-based moisturizer enriched with Vitamin
E, Vitamin B2 and Camphor. Its unique high Glycerin content
and absorbability, achieved through a special manufacturing
process in Japan, makes Yu-Be effective on severe dry skin and
sets it apart from other creams. World-class mountain climber
and explorer Sumiyo Tsuzuki uses Yu-Be to protect her skin on
expeditions all over the world. Ms. Tsuzuki was the first Japanese
woman to reach the summit of Mt. Everest from the more difficult
North side (the China/Tibet side). Need we say more?
