FPD recently attended a breakfast for bloggers at Saks Fifth Avenue to celebrate the launch of their new blog, Saks POV. So far, blog covers a little bit of everything, from things to do in the Saks neighborhood in NYC, to places and pieces beloved by their women’s fashion director, Colleen Sherin, branded under the ‘fashion pairings’ category.

The event itself was truly a celebration of the holiday spirit, with bloggers getting to preview Saks’ top gift picks for the holidays. Shimmering cocktail dresses by Valentino, Marchesa and Dolce & Gabbana were showcased, perfect for the season’s parties. A team from Nars was happy to demonstrate the latest tips and tricks for getting dolled up, and some attendees even got a professional do-over of their morning make-up.

Rebecca Minkoff and Portolano had the ideal accessories for that techie on your list: stylish gadget cases and adjustable-finger gloves to keep hands warm while typing. The ladies from GlamourPuss were also in attendance, giving the run down on their über-lux, yet über-affordable fur collars, hats, and mittens. Saks also had their own display of cashmere sweaters, a great staple for the coming months, and for pairing with the showcased cashmere and silk Brunello Cucinelli pieces.

Saks POV is now up and running, so fellow style-obsessed mavens can take a glance to see more holiday gift guide ideas, or get a distinctly different view of the fashion world according to Saks.

The amazing lite-brite-esque lights used in the window display at Tory Burch’s stores

Last week I attended the resort preview for Tory Burch in her Meatpacking District store that also included a styling component. Check out the look I styled using clothing and accessories from the Tory Burch Resort Launch, now posted to the Tory Burch Facebook page, where fans can vote for their favorite look. The blogger with the most votes will get a $350 Tory Burch gift card. So I hope you like my look, and get your vote on! All you’ve got to do is click on the Tory Burch Tab and become a fan of their page to vote!

Here’s my styled look – note: we weren’t really outside, on the side of a mountain
