EUROPE.....Museum Visits London and Paris Part One: "Vogue 100: A Century of Style" and "James Bond 007 L'Exposition"
London, Paris: Attending the "Vogue 100: A Century of Style", "James Bond L'Exposition: 50 Years of Style"
Earlier this month, my partner David Paul and I had the opportunity to fly to Europe. It was a business trip; I was making appearances for my NV Nick Verreos clothing line on QVC UK in London and QVC Italia in Milan. But in between the frenetic traveling and packing-and-unpacking and hotel-hopping, we somehow scheduled some Fashion Museums time! Here's my Part One BLOG RECAP of that...
