tastes of summer - heirloom tomatoes and mozzarella salad

We recently visited the Union Square farmer's market, which features the freshest fruits and veggies from local farmers and producers. Holding onto the last moments of summer with some succulent heirloom tomatoes we snapped up is this delightful salad with fresh mozzarella and some of our locally grown heirloom tomatoes.

It's a super simple recipe so we'll let these gorgeous colors and images do the talking, but as for ingredients:

You'll Need
-Tomatoes (taste is best at room temp)
-Arugula or a variety of salad greens
-Mozzarella (the freshest you can get!)
-Olive Oil & Balsamic vinegar
-Fresh cracked pepper and salt

-crusty bread to fill it out and for mopping up all the tasty juices left over!

Enjoy!!

Polyvore mini editor - design your fall boudoir look using BTS!
Be bold, be creative!

If you've heard of Polyvore or are wondering what it is all about here's your chance to try it out! This new mini-editor feature allows you to create looks without the commitment of signing up for an account and allows them to be featured right here on our site/blog!!

We'd love to see how you would wear BTS (or for the fellas/ladies who want to design an outfit for their partner!) Maybe you want to go bold and style a cami with jeans and motorcycle jacket, maybe you'd pair heels with just a babydoll... whatever your style is take a moment to express it! Don't see an item in the pieces we pre-selected- you can search Polyvore's huge database and pull items from sites all over the world. So if you want to add diamonds, pearls, a strappy pair of sandals, even a yacht to your collage you can find it with a quick and easy search.

Drag and drop items into the design area, resize and "crop" to create the look that you wish!

We're excited to see what you all will come up with! Here's an example of a fall look we made using items in the mini-editor below!

behind the scenes - Aug 2010 NY market week

New York market week is when buyers from around the country and the world come to NY to buy from a plethora of designers featuring their wholesale collections. We launched at Curve NY back in Aug 2009 and this was the one year anniversary of our official wholesale debut. We decided to do something different this year so we booked a luxurious room at hotel AKA and hosted a private buying and press suite to coincide with the shows. The relaxed and private atmosphere allowed us to show our collection one on one to buyers without the hustle and noise of the trade show venues, and we had a resoundingly positive response from the buyers that were able to make it out! Here's a sneak peek at the hotel's gorgeous accomodations and the fall winter collections and designer capsule collection "Layla L'obatti for Between the Sheets" on display.






a glimpse of Between the Sheets Collection's Spring Summer 11 lookbook



I wish our kitchen was this modern and spacious!




Luxe jewelry we used in our SS11 campaign shoot and our buyer/press gift boxes lined up on the counter.




A look at Tzen's luxe jewelry line on display. Gorgeous hand wire wrapped and semi-precious stone jewelry made in Chicago! We love local designers!



Breakfast treats, and salt water taffy from the jersey shore to set the mood for SS11 buying!





High tea sandwiches (recipe post to follow) cucumber/cream cheese & mint, goat cheese/watercress and pecan, brie/arugula and cranberry!



We sprinkled the table with collectible shells, and the images of BTS collection from Basics, to Fall Winter 2010, to Spring Summer 11 cycled on the flatscreen in the background. A playlist of soft music that inspired us echoes softly through the spacious room.



Fall winter collection is coming soon! Stay tuned for new store announcements and also some key gift guides we may be featured in for holiday!! xo

watermelon & beet summer salad
Nothing says summer like a sweet and tangy salad. Here we took the season's ripest watermelon and paired it with sweet cooked/chopped beets for a colorful plate that is as much a feast for the eyes as for your palette.

You'll need:
-1 cup watermelon
-1/2 cup arugula
-1 beet sliced or diced
-baquette or some other crusty bread
-sea salt and pepper for seasoning
-olive oil
-lime or lemon juice



Slice/Dice and plate your watermelon and beet, season with sea salt and fresh cracked pepper. You'd be surprised at how amazing the sweetness of watermelon is when brought out by the tanginess of salt and spice of pepper! Garnish with slices of fresh bread (baguette here)


Add arugla or a green of your choice, we also chopped green onions but you can leave those out if you like.


We squeezed lime juice for a tangy summer taste, but you could easily substitute lemon.




Finally drizzle with some EVOO for that final touch of buttery sweetness


Bon Appetit!

when a model weds...
YES, as you may have thought when a model weds it is an event worthy of lavish location, sumptuous wardrobe, and some seriously gorgeous photography and video work... now when model royalty like Coco Rocha weds, pull out all the stops and make a feature length short with panoramic scenery and speckle it with the most amazing couture gowns and poof a marriage unlike no other.

Why all the hubbub over a model you ask? Check it out.. she might look eerily familiar, because this chameleon model known for her signature jaunty poses has been gracing fashion covers ALL OVER the world for a couple of seasons! She was also just featured on Project Runway episode where the winning designer's jumpsuite graced her agile form on a Times Square billboard... so look up, it will be raining coco for seasons to come.
