Better Mornings Interview

by: Karen


                                                 www.cayetanolegacy.com
Hi everyone!

I had such a fun time this morning shooting a segment for The Cayetano Legacy Collection with host, Tracye Hutchins for Better Mornings Atlanta.  I have to admit i was a bit nervous - especially since Gail and Christine couldn't make it down for this interview, but Tracye made me feel so comfortable.  I was able to talk about our line, how we started it and how we're taking initiatives to start training programs in the Philippines to help provide jobs and boost the overall economy.  Definitely check it out when it airs on Wednesday, August 17th at 5:25am, 6:25 am, 12:20 pm and possible 4-5pm on CBS Atlanta. 

As Kelly Cutrone talks about, its always important to have a strong "tribe" or support group. Aside from my sisters, I really have to thank Kelli from Kelli Flournoy PR for being there this morning for helping set up and support.  And i have to thank Alba Nela for her styling advice.  She also insists that i stop talking with my hands and to incorporate color into my wardrobe.  Color, i can do, not talking with my hands....that i can't promise.  We'll have to see when the segment airs ;)

Here are behind the scenes pictures from this morning. Thanks for reading!








(PS - i'm wearing a green dress from Zara, the Virginia natural necklace from http://www.cayetanolegacy.com/, Charles and Keith belt, and Adrienne Vittandini pumps)

Miami Vice

One more day! We're packing our bags for our trip to Miami for Swim Fashion Week...and honestly, we can't pack enough kaftans.

 Here's why:
1) they look amazing with every single piece in our summer line (www.cayetanolegacy.com)
2) they make elegant cover-ups at the beach or poolside
3) the beautiful colors and goddess -  like silhouettes are perfect for dinner dates at night
4) they're just so damn comfortable

So, here's our "go to piece" for our Miami getaway.


Maximina Turquoise Bib Necklace
Cayetano Legacy Collection
Retail: $139

And here is our ode to kaftans - its probably more of an ode to William Williamson - but we just adore his feminine designs - all of which would look fab with our necklace above:
