Fall back, fall forward

The look of the season goes down memory lane and up into tomorrow
heIDI Mae bRATT

ace and leopard. Fringes and fur.

Red and revolution.

These are some of your favorite

things for fall 2015 to finesse your
wardrobe and be au courant for the season.
The look for the fall season a great time to
layer up and bring out the real clothes features a smorgasbord of periods and styles
from which to choose: from Victorian to 70s
boho chic, from hi-low flouncy hemlines to
cat suit-like jumpsuits.
Todays fashion savvy shopper can find a
style that looks back, looks forward, and just
looks good.
If you ask Lucy Gentile, the proprietor of
fashion emporium Engle Shop Too in Cresskill, its fringes,
fringes, fringes.
Fringes on anything, said Ms. Gentile, be it a shawl, a
bag, a sweater. Everyone should have one piece of fringe.

Engle Shop Too

If there is just one piece to add this season, it

definitely has to have fringe.
In fact, Ms. Gentile said, a cashmere shawl
with fringe by Calypso in a shade of baby blue
sold out in July. It was 100 degrees outside
and people were buying this gorgeous shawl,
she said.
Another big item, she said, is something
anything in red and variations on red, such
as burgundy and magenta.
Going for that bohemian rhapsody look
seems to be a constant return to popular culture, and this season is no different. The case of
the early 1970s nostalgia has designers boho-ing
it up with a mix of vibrant looks that range from
floaty, long-sleeved dresses, feather embellishments, tops
that are layered and tiered, and flower power redux with
floral prints. Dont forget to add a bit of bottom with flared
jeans in a light blue wash if you dare.
Yes, its the hippies again, said Ms. Gentile. But even
if you are in your 50s, you can wear the look. The trick is
how you put it together. You can pair a paisley blouse with
leggings, or even put on the flared leg pants.
A sidebar of the boho trend is the skinny scarf, which is
making a play for the must-have accessory of the season.
Worn with everything from a casual sweater dress to a fullon gown, the skinny scarf is the one item that can transition very easily between all outfit occasions.
This fall, the effort to be on trend also rests squarely on
the shoulders. Collars with a furry finish are seen all over
the place. It might be challenging to find a coat that doesnt
come with a fur or faux fur fuzzy collar. The look adds a
good amount of volume to the outerwear and keeps the
neck warm on those blustery days ahead.
Black leather never goes out of style, and this season the
leather motorcycle jacket with a new, fresh tapered shape
and with an adornment of fringe is also a popular item.
Plaid is another big seller this season. Its a classic print
that is being played out in green or red or blue, such as an
easy casual button-down shirt that is paired with jeans or
as an accent piece. Designers are partial to a tartan print
and its easy to see why. The red adds an interesting dose
of color to an otherwise classic fabric.
Local fashionistas, such as Sara, owner of Mishelynes in
Teaneck, said that lace is very hot this season. The delicate
fabric isnt just for the big night out but is popular for a
casual look as well. Lace over nude is seen in pants, tops,
and even a jumpsuit.
Some stylish women are not shy at all about donning
lace in todays styles.
I just sold a jumpsuit to a woman in her 70s who is going to wear it (sleeveless black lace with a shrug) to her
grandsons bar mitzvah, she said.
The owner also said that high-low dresses and tunics are
still a big story. As are the perennial animal prints, with
leopard prints seen on anything and everything, leading
the pack.
In formal wear, a lot of straight-line dresses, or column

Mishelynes
Fashions

dresses are the forerunners. Formal dresses also feature

details that are in the back, such as a big bow a surprise
that you dont anticipate, she said.
As for footwear, sweeter feet are what you will be feeling when the heel has come down to a more comfortable
height. The stacked kitten heel will be a welcomed addition
for the sartorially focused female. Designers are giving gals
a break and showing that a sky-high heel does not always
necessarily make the outfit perfect.
Designers also seem to be responding to the past white
winter and are showing lots of chic and stylish black boots
that are great to make your way around the snow.
As for jewelry, bling makes a big comeback. After seasons of minimally designed oversized jewelry, sparkle
returns. Now the look is very feminine and bejeweled.
Look for brooches to big, dramatic earrings that make a
statement in a sparkly big bling way.

AUTUMN 2015

Fall SpICe

Fur sure
Baby when its cold outside,
the luxe trend heats up
heIDI Mae bRATT

n the runways and on the racks, from

the catwalks to the crowds, youd be
hard-pressed not to find a luxurious
pelt in some fashion, helping to make
a statement be it warm and fuzzy, strikingly
dramatic, or something in between.

Thats right. Fur is back. Big time.

Young designers are featuring fur. Celebrities
are proudly being photographed in fur. And if
you take a look at retail sales, they are on the
upswing like a mink stole flung insouciantly
across the shoulders.
According to the Fur Information Council of
America, the largest fur industry association
representing fur retailers and manufacturers
across the country, fur sales in the United States
were reportedly $1.39 billion in 2013, the most
recent year for which figures are available. The
sales reflect an increase of 10 percent over 2012.
It also didnt hurt that the last two winters were
among the most blisteringly brutally cold ones,
too. (And, the Farmers Almanac predicts another winter bruiser this season.)
While the fickle finger of fashion may favor
trends that are here today and gone tomorrow,
fur fashion, says Florence New, owner of Closter Furs & Fashions in Closter, is here to stay,
whether the wearer is a carpool mom running
hither and yon, in and out of her Honda, or an empty nester or retiree enjoying her lifestyle.
Fur will always be a fashion statement, said Ms. New. It is a staple in
outerwear. Genuine fur is lightweight,
very durable and extremely long lasting.
What is especially trending, Ms.
New noted, are such items as fur-lined
reversible coats with the inside featuring sheared mink, beaver, or rex
rabbit, and the outside featuring a durable microfiber; jackets or short coats
with a draw string waist and a hood;
and sheared short mink jackets that
can take the wearer from a day to an
evening look.
Ms. New said that jackets that hit
below the waist or to the hip are big
sellers. Styling also includes horizontal workmanship, and trims are often
long-haired furs such as fox in an array
of color. Also very popular are vests,
which come in a variety of pelts from
mink, rex rabbit, beaver, and Persian
lamb. For an elegant and lightweight
look, cashmere wraps with fox trim are
always an option.

Misheleynes
Fashions

Closter Furs

The store, known for its

wide selection of trendy
to traditional styles and
competitive pricing, also
is a haven for remodeling.
Is there an old, heavy mink
coat from mom or grandma sitting in the closet?
Remodeling of an old coat
breathes new life into the
outerwear.
Everyone owns an old
mink, Ms. New said. It
can be easily sheared and
remodeled into the trendiest coats. Just dont tell
your friends it was your
moms traditional mink
coat.
Retailers say the sales
of furs are being driven by
two kinds of customers,
old and new. The old is the
man buying a high-end gift
for his wife or girlfriend,
as has been the case ever

Jewish Standard

since the fur coat became a luxury item.

The new customer is the professional
woman under 40, who wants to splurge
on herself and is buying the fur with her
own cash.
Yesterdays customers may have put
down $15,000 for a classic floor-length
mink. More and more, the new breed
of buyer picks up a shorter jacket with a
lighter price tag, more like $5,000. The
look is more casual and more fun.
No one is really doing coats anymore,
said Michael Verghitsis, owner of Dana
Reit Fur in Ridgewood. They are totally
impractical. They are a big investment,
and youve got to wait around for an occasion to wear them. A three-quarter coat is
much easier to get in and out of the car.
Clearly, fur has lost its one-time stigma.
For instance, in 2000 there were 41 designers who included fur in their collections. Today there are nearly 500. They
offer more products at more price points
in silhouettes and styles and accessories
that appeal to a broader audience. Innovations in manufacturing technology
have made fur a broad canvas. The result
is more designers adapting fur in more
ways than ever to ready-to-wear, outerwear, shoes, and accessories.

Theres nothing shocking about this simple classic style being paired with
ready-to-wear high fashion. We have seen earrings
climb up the lobe and wrap
around the outside edge of
the ear from various collections but all circled back to
the basic diamond hoop earring. Diamond hoop earrings
are not just round anymore.
This season, ovals have almost
taken over the traditional round
diamond hoops. Oval-shaped hoops complement and elongate the shape of every
womans face.

The thing about hoops: Even if you try

to sober them up with work clothes,
theyre never entirely serious.
They have a sense of whimsical fun ease to put on anytime
with any outfit with your
jeans or your little black dress.
Never a distraction but always
a complement to your outfit.
Theres always a place for hoops.
Diamond hoop earrings are a
classic and a must for every womens jewelry wardrobe, says Randi
Shinske, owner of Red Velvet Luxe.
Theyre an investment that never
goes out of style!
At Red Velvet Luxe, diamond hoop earrings range from $650to $6800.

Savvy chic consignment boutique

Savvy Chic Consignment Boutique
has been voted best in Bergen
County since it opened 7
years ago and its easy to
see why.
Walking into this beautifully styled boutique is like
opening a treasure chest
and finding any designer
goodie you can imagine. Savvy
Chic has an amazing selection of
womens clothing, shoes, handbags,
jewelry, and accessories ranging from
Chanel to Tory Burch.
The owner of Savvy Chic, Randi
Morein, says her customers liken their
shopping experience to treasure hunting: They love finding unique and
interesting items.
Everything in the boutique is in pristine condition. Most of the items are
new or in near-new condition, and each
item is inspected before it goes out on
the floor. It is not unusual to find items
with their tickets still on them from the
store they were bought at. At Savvy Chic,
you can find a Chanel handbag with
the tags still on it, Christian Louboutin
shoes never worn before, or a fabulous
Carolina Herrera gown for a third of its
retail cost.
As one of the largest consignment
stores in the area, Savvy Chic has an

entire evening wear department

for that special occasion dress.
That is in addition to shirts,
pants, dresses, coats,
jewelry, and handbags,
They also have beautiful high-end pant and
skirt suits for the working
woman. Brands like Gucci,
Dior, Tahari, Nanette Lepore,
and more are waiting for the
smart woman who doesnt want to
spend a fortune to look like one.
Designer jeans are another big seller
at Savvy chic. Imagine paying $60 for
a pair of jeans that retail at the store
for $180-$250. Then imagine they still
have the tag on! Looking for a high
end purse? This is the store to find that
elusive Louis Vuitton, the Chanel you
always wanted, or that hard to find
Prada purse.
Sunglasses are another fun find at
Savvy Chic as well as wallets, Herms
scarves, and belts. There is fine jewelry
such as Yurman, Cartier, Bulgari, and
Tiffany as well as vintage and costume
jewelry.
Savvy Chic Consignment Boutique
is located at 30 Cottage Place in Ridgewood. For more information, call (201)

Zilli and Papillon open in new Jersey

With over 40 years of experience serving
the Tri-State area, Papillon has been a
purveyor of luxury mens clothing in the
Bergen County area.
The 3,500 sq. ft. Zilli boutique is located
in The Shops at Riverside a very high-end
mall which caters to the auent suburban
areas. In addition, a number of shoppers
from New York City, particularly Manhattan, are drawn to the mall for its upscale
offerings minus the New York sales tax on
clothing. The mall has over 70 boutiques,
most of them luxury designer brands.
Zilli has become the global reference
for Haute Couture menswear. At the very
heart of this extraordinary success story:
the passion of one family. Zilli, established
in 1965, has boutiques worldwide. In keeping with its origins as a small, family-run
factory specializing in leather and fur, Zilli
is well-known for its use of high-quality
leathers and exotic skins like crocodile,
even as the line has expanded over the
years into outerwear, knitwear, tailored
clothing, eyewear, luggage, and more.
The success of Zilli over the years is the
result of its quest for excellence: In 2010
Zilli was the first luxury menswear com-

pany to be awarded for its artisanal approach to working with leather and hides.
Now an Entreprise du Patrimoine vivant (Living Heritage Company) in Haute
Couture, Zilli has reaffirmed its place
among the most prestigious names such
as Chanel, Guerlain, and Baccarat.
Creativity and know-how converge in
the Lyon workshops to highlight the outstanding materials used and to produce
the iconic collections of leather jackets,
coats, suits, shirts, footwear, knitwear,
and denim, all of which have confirmed
Zilli as the craftsmen of modern luxury.
In turning a jacket into a luxury item,
Zilli elevated exotic hides to a new level.
Indeed, the introduction of rare and precious materials into the contemporary
mans wardrobe saw the advent of Haute
Couture menswear.
The New Jersey boutique will feature a
broad spectrum of the brands offerings,
from the ready-to-wear collection to accessories, footwear and eyewear.
Zilli is boutique #129 at The Shops at
Riverside, across from LV. For more information, call (201) 342-9000 or visit

Entrance halls and hallways

Freshen up your space
Joseph Pubillones

e a l l k n ow f i r s t
impressions matter. Well, my friends,
the same holds true
for our homes. Walking into an
entrance hall should be a warm
and inviting experience, a preamble to the rest of the homes
decor. However, entrance halls
are frequently seen as merely
functional spaces and are forgotten or relegated to lackluster design.
In theory, designing the interior should be rather simple because rarely is this space ample
enough to contain a lot of furnishings. Most entry halls are
small not much larger than the
hallways they lead to.
If space allows, an entry hall
should contain seating - such as
a chair or a stool - a mirror and
a console or table to hold letters,
keys, and cellphones.
Ideally, the walls of an entrance hall are painted in one
color to create unity. The color
should be chosen based on either the predominant color of
the house or an accent color
within the decorating scheme.
For example, the color could
be inspired by an accent color
found on drapes in an adjoining room or chosen to reinforce
the color of the sofa and chairs.
This weaving of colors from one
room to another creates a visual
link and ensures a nice flow from

one room to another.

An entry hall endures a lot of
wear and tear as people enter
and exit a home. So avoid selecting light or pale colors for the
walls. Wallpaper is an advisable
finish for this area, as long as
the paper is thick; paper with a
vinyl base is appropriate, too.
Selecting wallpaper with a small
or overall print will help conceal
any scuffs that occur in daily use.
Flooring material for an entry
hall should be durable and easy
to clean. Depending on where
your home is located, keep in
mind that outside elements will
make their way inside: snow,
mud, sand, dust. Most entry
halls require an area rug to help
soften the impact of foot traffic
on the flooring. Here, too, select an area rug with an overall
pattern and a multicolor background to avoid footprints and
inevitable marks.
Depending on ceiling height,
your room may be able to carry a chandelier or lantern or a
close-to-the-ceiling light fixture.
However you do it, this room
should be well-lit.
The final touches are the decorations and furnishings selected
for this space. Tablescapes are
important and should provide
hints of the style and decor of
the rest of the home. Some entry
halls are wide enough to accommodate a round table as a center-

piece. This always looks better

when topped by a floral arrangement, a piece of sculpture or
stacks and stacks of books. Entry
halls that are tighter on space
should at the very least feature
a console topped by a mirror or

significant work of art.

Ultimately, entry halls and
hallways are the perfect places
to express your personality. Because they are small spaces, you
can decorate them over and over
again without breaking the bank.

And the regular makeovers will

keep your home looking fresh.

colors within the

Whether remodeling your entire kitchen or looking to add a single upgrade, its
important to select the best products that will last for years to come. One of the
best investments you can make is in your kitchen appliances. With a vast array
of choices on the market today, it is important to consider your options and
select appliances that provide the features and style you want at a price that fits
your budget.

only heats the pot and the area directly

Once the right appliances are selected,

consider all the ways you can enhance
your kitchen with these functional additions.
Proper ventilation is key when selecting
a new range or cooktop. There are numerous range hood styles available to complement a ventilation systems functionality.
Built-in coffee systems provide barista
style coffee and free up counter space.
Most models also provide instant hot water for teas, soups and other hot dishes.
Warming drawers provide a great way
to keep prepared food heated and fresh.
They also work well to warm dinnerware,
cups and even towels.
Appliances are the power houses of
the kitchen. From storing fresh ingredients to cooking up culinary creations,
appliance purchases are an investment
in productivity. Dont simply replace an
appliance, select an option that is larger, faster, and stylish enough to last for
years to come.
To help with the selection process,
its important to choose a company with
knowledgeable, trained professionals and
high-quality products. Karls Appliance

Home hunting
Dont do it yourself!
Jeanelle D. Horcasitas

nless youre a millionaire who

can afford to buy a Ferrari or a
Lamborghini, the biggest purchase youll ever make will most
likely be your home. Whether youre a
neophyte or seasoned buyer, choosing
the right home is never an easy process,
so you shouldnt do it alone. I would
suggest using a licensed real estate
agent who will assist you through the
entire endeavor to ensure that you buy
the house of your dreams.

First, youll want to find the real estate

agent who is right for you. Ultimately,
you are looking for an agent that will be
responsive to your questions and concerns, organized when sending you listings to check out and, most importantly,
have a schedule that fits with yours! An
agent with these qualities is important,
but dont forget to examine their previous
experience. Ideally, you want to hire an
agent who has a few years of experience,
successful transactions under his or her
belt, and who is an expert in the your target market. Yes, there are a lot of factors
to consider when using an agent, but once
youve found the perfect one, youll be in
great hands to begin your home hunting.
Once youve secured your agent, make
sure to keep a few of these tips in mind:
As a buyer, you should not have to
pay any commission to your agent. It is
the sellers responsibility to ensure that a
small percentage of what the home is sold
for is allocated to both his or her agent,
who is selling the home, and your agent,
who is bringing them the buyer, but more
importantly, the money. According to
Chrystal Caruthers from realtor.com, the
buyers agent is paid by the seller because
the listing agent is sharing a percentage of
the commission. Sharing the commission
is called cooperating, or a co-op commission. This is definitely an advantage for
the buyer, who does not have to worry
about extra fees, and its a nice incentive
for the agent helping in the process!
Your agent is representing YOU, so
that you dont have to worry about approaching sellers to view the home or

negotiate prices. Although a home might

be listed on the market, it is best to have
your agent set up the best time to visit
it. Having your agent set up this formal
visit is much better than you attempting
to visit the home on your own as a total
stranger - the seller will have more trust
in a licensed real estate agent.
Remember, your agent is the expert,
so use his or her knowledge to your advantage! Assuming that your agent is a
good negotiator and understands the process and market, he or she should be able
to provide you with a good price point
when it comes to putting in an offer on
a home that youre interested in buying.
The agent should definitely have a sense

of what the value of the property should

be so that you make the best choice for
your family and your wallet.
Once youve made the offer and its
accepted, its time for the next big step:
the paperwork. Luckily, having an agent
alleviates a lot of the hassle and stress
when it comes to buying your home. For
example, understanding the appraisal of
the home can be tough data to find on
your own. Therefore, your agent should
have access to databases or people who
can determine whether or not youre underpaying or overpaying for the home. Ultimately, your agent is an enormous help
and time-saver in the closing process of
purchasing your new home.

Your agent is your biggest advocate.

Your agent knows the success of finding
your home is a reflection of his or her own
success in the business. If your agent goes
above and beyond for you, the biggest
compliment you can pay them is to simply refer them to their next customer. So
always remember to pay it forward!
As you can see, finding a home entails a
lot of patience and determination. Therefore, using a licensed real estate agent is
wise when it comes to this life-changing
process. When it comes to your home,
you want to ensure that youre getting
the best value, and a real estate agent will
help you achieve this goal!

Benzel-Busch premieres
the 2016 GLE SUV and GLE Coupe

he 2016 GLE SUV and GLE Coupe

have arrived. You can see these
innovative marvels at Americas
premier automotive dealership:
Benzel-Busch Motor Car Corp. Awarded
the 2014 Sales and Service Laureates
Award by Mercedes-Benz for excellence
in customer service, Benzel-Busch,
located on Grand Ave. in Englewood,
is showcasing the latest in its line of
Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
The car company has thoroughly
revised its best seller in the SUV segment, replacing the M-Class with the
all-new GLE SUV. The highlights of
the new GLE SUV include considerably more appealing front and tail ends
and extensive measures, making new
benchmarks with regard to emissions
and drive system possible. The advantages of the new GLE SUV include best
on-road and off-road handling, outstanding spaciousness, and high levels
of active and passive safety.

Meanwhile, the all-new MercedesBenz GLE Coupe combines two classes

of vehicle, each with its own distinct
style, to make one unique model. The
sporty nature of a coupe dominates,
imbued with the striking characteristics of a robust SUV. In addition to its
convincing on-road vehicle dynamics,
the GLE Coupe impressive side contour
pushes the long-standing coupe tradition of Mercedes-Benz to new heights.
These vehicles both have AMG
models, the AMG GLE SUV and AMG
GLE Coupe available in a 63 platform.

From the beginning, the One Man, One

Engine philosophy has guided AMGs
approach to manufacturing. Even now,
every AMG engine is hand built from
start to finish by one of about 50 AMG
Master Engine Builders in a special
facility. As the final step in the assembly process, the engine-maker affixes a
plaque engraved with his signature to
the engine cover.
Consider the GLE63 S 4Matic packing a 5.5-liter twin-turbocharged M157
V-8, one of the finest hand-built engines
ever to come out of AMGs assembly
plant from Germany. The high-performance SUV coupe comes with an AMG
Ride Control sports suspension with
active roll stabilization Active Curve
System and the Sports Direct Steer system. The 4Matic all-wheel drive with
rear-biased power distribution and the
Dynamic Select transmission modes
promise to deliver what distinguishes every AMG vehicle: driving performance. Its rated at 577 horsepower,
with maximum torque of 561 lb-ft in the
S version; this is the only GLE63 model
coming to the United States.
The limits have also been pushed
in driving performance with the new
GLE450 AMG Sport Coupe, powered
by a thrilling 362-hp biturbo V6 engine.
Exclusive AMG enhancements create a
new pedigree in power. From its stronger turbo boost to a dynamic exhaust
system, the 3.0-liter biturbo V-6 in the

FALL SPICE

GLE 450 AMG heightens power, torque

and the emotions they inspire in true
enthusiasts. An exclusive red engine
cover insert celebrates the 362 hp and
384 lb-ft of torque waiting within.
And for the first time in its SUV
history, Mercedes-Benz offers a plugin hybrid model, the GLE550e 4Matic,
which combines maximum efficiency
with outstanding performance, expected in Benzel-Busch in October.
A family owned establishment
for over half a century, Benzel-Busch
is proud to be a staple of northern
New Jersey and is committed to providing the community with excellence
in product and service. With a newly
renovated, 170,00 square foot location
and the most attentive professionals
providing a true concierge experience,
Benzel-Busch is eager to work with you
to define the way you drive. Start your

Seniors find swimming healthful

FountainView residents
exercise and enjoy the
heated indoor pool and
spa all year round. They
h a v e d i s c ov e re d t h e
Fountain of Youth to
keep them young at heart.
An active lifestyle is
very important as one
grows older. FountainView offers an array of
water programs including
water aerobics, water walk
and schmooze, and water
stretch and flex. Because
water is about 800 times
denser than air, you can
work harder, and burn more calories,
in a pool than out of it. In fact, different
aqua exercises challenge different muscles within the body so you can choose
where you tone up.
Some of FountainViewss residents
will attest that they wake up with
arthritic aches and pains, but after an
aqua exercise session they have loosened their muscles, joints, and liga-

ments and are pain free.

Sw i m m i n g c a n s u p port up to 90 percent
of the bodys weight in
the water, meaning that
those with disabilities,
injuries, or illnesses such
as arthritis can take part
in a comfortable and safe
environment. The pressure of the water will
decrease a persons heart
rate up to 20bpm lower
in water than on land.
Therefore, one has the
ability to exercise at the
same intensity but at a
lower heart rate. An individual will gain
a full body workout safely and with less
stress put on their body.
Water exercise can help prevent surgery. A few of the residents have said
that aqua workouts have helped them
and they no longer need corrective
knee, hip or shoulder surgeries. One
resident is ecstatic to avoid pain management injections for her back.
