  • Pins from Madeleine Albright's collection

    Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright drew a big crowd to the swanky St. John store in  the Americana shopping center in Manhasset and the talk was of politics -- and  pins.

    Albright was promoting her book, "Read My Pins, Stories from a Diplomat’s Jewel Box” (Harper Collins, $40). 

    For pin-lovers who want to own a replica straight from Albright's collection, the store is offering two charmers -- a kangaroo and a hippo, each retailing for $75.   What a great gift, especially when paired with Albright's beautiful and brilliant book.

  • Heidi Klum for Ann Taylor

    Model-TV personality Heidi Klum is

    Ann Taylor has a new face and it’s a famous one -- Heidi Klum stars in the chain’s holiday campaign, shot by famed photographer Peter Lindbergh, no less.

    If you shopped Ann Taylor at all this fall, you already know the store has completely revamped its look. Clothes are fun and funky--you can still wear them to the office but only if you want to get noticed.

    Holiday offerings include lots of cashmere, which Klum describes in press materials as fun and easygoing. “You can throw it on with jeans, to the office, it’s very verstile.” And of course the requisite accessories and baubles, some of which Klum is said to have selected for herself during the shoot, proclaiming “I wear it, I keep it.”

    Can’t imagine the powers at Ann Taylor have a problem with that.
