Jenny Sanford is smart, rich and classy. A Georgetown grad and former VP of mergers and acquisitions for an investment bank, this mother of four boys had it all. Including a husband who chose politics with little notice, a husband who she supported by running his campaigns and being his advisor, a husband who very publically cheated on her.

No shades of ‘The Good Wife’ here. Oh she was a good wife alright - but not to the point of absurdity. No knock on Elin, but REALLY? Jenny is an heiress to the Skil (as in Skil saw) family fortune, and in a pinch she can pull down six or seven figures herself based on her own skills. Maybe that is the difference? The confidence to take care of herself and her family mixed with a sprinkle of emotional self-preservation?
In any case, hats off to Jenny. I admire your courage and grace. You are both classy and wonderfully fabulous. You are the Delamina woman of the week.

Linked In?

So many ways to connect - this spring, stay linked to fashion with fashion addict Chrissy Bryant.

“Chunky chains and necklaces created with large open links were hot in 2009 and the look will continue to be popular in 2010. Pick up the February issue of InStyle magazine and you’ll see the beautiful Heidi Klum wearing an oversized linked necklace on the cover.” Read more…

Amethyst Appeal

Quick, before February disappears for another year, let’s talk about amethysts!
