STARS OVER PALM BEACH...

It's not just Palm Beach Fashion Week... It's also the Miami Film Festival, and there've been some constellations floating north to take in the island's nightlife. 2006 Superbowl Champ Indianapolis Colt QB Peyton Manning has been seen enjoying the vibe at Cucina the last few nights, and our favorite quirkgenue Drew Barrymore checked out the mirror ball and disco apocalpyse as well.

It's not that Palm Beach is necessarily better -- that depends on what YOU like -- but it certainly has its own flavor, and it's yummy enough to attract the glitterati! For us, though, we're all about the penne a la vodka... and seeing our friends on the veranda.

Meanwhile it was also about the lovely cocktail party out by the Ritz Carlton's pool. Lots of Lilly Resort and Spring floating around the gathered masses of people from here, there and everywhere taking in a style so singular it really can only happen here.

FASHION ROCKS PALM BEACH!!!!

We have our own sense of style... our own way of dress... our own way of being...

Palm Beach is its own destination -- and the truly stylish recognize that there's a whole sartorial whirl beyond what the fashion magazines dictate. It's not anti-fashion -- our girls wear Gucci and Hermes, Prada and Chanel just as well as anyone -- but it's more about dressing for one's own pleasure. Ease of elegance, simplicity of design, an ice cream colored palette that is breathtaking in its intensity or smile-inducing in its pastel prettiness.

And tonight Palm Beach Fashion Week kicks off at Mar-A-Lago with gorgeous Ivanka Trump's jewels. Eres' bathing suits, the high fashionry of Vlassis Holevas. But any chance to go the Post Estate and look just so is better than Rudyard Kipling to us!!!

There are events scheduled all over Palm Beach County: Jupiter, Delray Beach, Palm Beach Gardens. Tomorrow night is an especially intimate gathering as the sun sets at the newly renovated, positively chic Ritz Carlton's pool -- featuring the ultimate Palm Beach go everywherewear by Lilly Pulitzer.

Whether you're working jewel encrusted sandals or the classic whipstitched Navahos, where else but Palm Beach would flip-flops be as chic for evening? Nowhere, which is what set our Fashion Week festivities apart.
