If you've been reading for a while, you might know that I'm hoping my next boots are by Voltaire Design. But with a $1500 price tag, that's most likely not going to happen for a very, very, very long time. There are several other boots that I've noticed in the SmartPak catalog and kind of liked, for instance the DeNiro Leuca Field Boots that have the same wrap-around zipper as the Voltaire Electre boots I've been drooling over. Since my boots are currently in the shop and hey, Christmas is around the corner, I decided to do a little research on DeNiro boots. I. Am. In. Love. This is the DeNiro Leuca Field boot that Smartpak carries Another Leuca but in dress boot style. I am loving all of their different and crazy styles, especially because they're all so beautiful! And keep in mind that they're all off the rack, not custom, thus they don't come with the custom price tag. As a slightly related question - Do you think field boots are hunter/jumper ring only? Would it look out of place to wear field boots in the dressage ring or dress boots in the hunter ring? I've always had dress boots because I hated the way that the fake laces on field boots looked, but now that the laces have been updated with the stretchy ones, I kind of like them, so I'm thinking of the Leuca boots and SmartPak only carries the field boot style. Thoughts?

The Grand Tour has long been a symbol of wealth and freedom. In the late 16th century, it became quite fashionable for young aristocrats to visit Italy and France, as the finishing touch on their classical education. Travel was arduous and costly during this time and possible only for a privileged class and thus the Grand Tour lasted until the 19th century, when railways across Europe allowed for easier travel. While these travels were very popular with the English, they were also undertaken by other Northern Europeans as well as Americans. The Grand Tour was developed out of the idea of travelling for the sake of curiosity and cultural development. These travels not only provided a cultural education but it also allowed wealthier Grand Tourists an opportunity to purchase items unavailable at home, and it thus increased the travellers social standing and prestige. Travellers would return with crates of books, paintings, sculpture, and other cultural goods, which would be displayed in libraries, gardens, and purpose built galleries in their homes. A large number of artists Such as Giovanni Battista Piranesi and Giovanni Antonio Canal (Canalletto) benefited from the patronage of the Grand Tour, as travelers purchased souvenirs.
This weekend it poured rain, all day, everyday. So we stayed inside, watched a lot of football, baked an apple cake, and a plum torte, and made my most favorite Chicken and Dumplings. This dish is so cozy, and flavorful, and filling, it’s the perfect rainy day comfort food. But also, it doesn’t need

The news broke last June that artist Jeff Koons and Dom Pérignon collaborated on a limited number (650 worldwide) of manually assembled and hand polished champagne holders inspired by Koons' Balloon Venus. The two-foot tall polyurethane resin version (shown above) of the artist's bulbous take on the 25,000 year old fertility symbol, Venus of Willendorf, was designed to cradle a bottle of Dom Pérignon Rosé Vintage 2003 and is offered in a limited edition of 650 worldwide costing $20,000 a piece. above: Jeff Koons and Dom Pérignon's Richard Geoffroy with Koons' Balloon Venus for Dom Pérignon design and the hot pink full-sized sculpture that inspired it. If you can't afford the $20,000 Balloon Venus bottle holder (and if you can, I'd like to be your friend) than perhaps the limited edition gift box is a better choice. The Limited Edition gift box was designed by Jeff Koons himself for both Dom Pérignon Vintage 2004 and Dom Perignon Rose Vintage 2003. The exterior of the boxes feature silk-screened spot-varnished images of a yellow Balloon Venus and a hot pink Balloon Venus (to match the respective cuvees) on a dark background. above: Koons' full-sized Balloon Venus in yellow From the outside, the gift box extends the feeling of being in the presence of Balloon Venus, as the reproduction features a 360 degree view of the sculpture. A view of the artist’s studio is visible on the reflective surface of the Balloon Venus, a reference to the place where Jeff Koons takes his inspiration, just as the Abbey of Hautvillers is where Richard Geoffroy, Chef de Cave of Dom Pérignon, creates the Dom Pérignon vintages. The gift box opens to expose the bottle, unveiling first an elaborate design that simulates the iridescent interior of the original sculpture made of high chromium stainless steel with transparent color coating dress. The iconic Dom Pérignon bottle erupts, exactly as it does from the body of the Balloon Venus for Dom Pérignon. Similar to the boxes, the bottle foils give a pop twist to the color of its cuvée, Blanc or Rose, interpreting the tension between the colors and the dark bottle. It bears a metallic shield with the same color layout as the foil and the box. The label plays with colored surface on the depth of the shield, emphasizing its allure, playful and yet mysterious. Richard Geoffroy of Dom Pérignon said that the label first approached Koons with the idea two years ago, and gave the artist free rein on the end design of the package. The limited edition boxes can be found at select specialty liquor and wine stores all over the world. Dom Pérignon has previously collaborated with such artists as David Lynch, Marc Newsom, Martin Szekely, and the estate of Andy Warhol for limited edition champagne buckets and bottles.
