The Fashion 2.0 Social Media Awards

by Julia DiNardo

Kicking off Fashion Week this season was the third annual Fashion 2.0 Social Media Awards, and it was OUT of this world! With Robert Verdi as the host and Norma Kamali as the keynote speaker, it was truly a night to remember! Kamali waxed poetic about her deep-seeded love of technology, and how now is such an exciting time to be living, working, and being apart of the incredible changes in our world and culture thanks to technology.  I loved her constant sense of curiosity, desire to learn, and how modest she is about what a tremendous trailblazer she’s been in her career.
The 2012 Fashion 2.0 Awards Winners from the night included:

Best Twitter: @DKNY

Best Facebook: Bergdorf Goodman

Best Blog by a Fashion Brand: DKNY PR Girl

Best Website: Marc Jacobs

Best Mobile App: Tiffany & Co. Engagement Ring Finder

Best Online Video: Prada Spring/Summer 2011 Video Campaign

Next Big Thing in Tech: Instagram

Top Innovator: Kate Spade

Fashion 2.0 Visionary Award: Alexis Maybank and Alexandra Wilkis Wilson, Co-Founders, Gilt Groupe

I hope  you enjoy some of the pics from the night, below (and one of me presenting “Best Facebook”)

The Wilhelmina 40+ Model Search Proves That Age is Just a Number

by Julia DiNardo

Ten finalists strutted down the runway at Macy’s Herald Square at the Wilhelmina 40+ Model Search for a chance to win a contract with Wilhelmina Model Agency, a trip to New York City, a makeover with Randall Christensen (Dancing with the Stars costume designer), a $1,000 Macy’s gift card, $1,000 worth of cosmetics from Estée Lauder, and a $1,000 wardrobe from Miraclesuit.  This particular model search, hosted by the charmingly-hilarious celeb stylist and TV personality Robert Verdi, focused on finding the next top model over the age of 40. Women ranging from 40 to 54 years old took the runway by storm in beautiful swimwear by Miraclesuit and designs by Christensen. The models projected confidence, class, and style, which could inspire any individual at any age to take the challenge and pursue a dream. This truly proves that age is just a number and fashion is beautiful on everyone

[Winner, Jaqueline Depaul]

I agreed with Verdi when he openly described winner, Jaqueline Depaul, 41, from California, as a Countess [from the Real Housewives of New York] look-alike. Depaul looked like a modeling natural and had a fabulous amount of fun and flirty sophistication to her. Diana Capozzi, 40, from Massachusetts was first runner-up and Kimberly Clark, 40, from Illinois, was second-runner up.

Robert Verdi’s Mother’s Day Gift Guide

by Julia DiNardo

In case you are in desperate need of a Mother’s Day gift, Robert Verdi has got every kind of Mom covered! Great options abounded, all of which scream “What a thoughtful child you are!”

Below are some of my favorite items from Robert’s selections:

Keurig Platinum Brewing System,$179.95

Because nothing says you care more than providing caffeine. Moms can always use a little extra caffeine (just ask mine!)


Jonathan Adler Charade Flower Frame 3 x 3, $58

Why? Because Moms love picture frames – it’s a known fact. And sweet Mr. Adler will print your pic, put in there and ship it for you!

Infiniti Pro by Conair™ 2 in. Spin Air Brush $68.99

Regardless of being a Mom or not, we all could use some boost and shine to our tresses.

Edible Arrangments, prices vary

Let’s just be honest – they are delicious, and sooo cute! Send one to Mom at work, or to home, for her to have all to herself.

Brenda Novak Scarf, $120

She’s a mom, she’s an author (of over 40 books!) , New York Times bestseller,  has a new one out (Inside) and has created a scarf, with a passage from her latest novel, with funds going toward diabetes research.

*Full disclosure: event attendees were given complimentary products
