An absolutely magnificent and incredibly rare, documented Nina Ricci haute couture black velvet and ivory satin gown back to her stunning 1952 fall-winter lifetime collection. This French fashion house, known for its feminine, ladylike clothing, has long been the go-to for Parisian chic. To achieve Nina Ricci figure-flattering cuts, the seasoned dressmaker draped on a live mannequin, pinning and snipping with a couturier's care. This breathtaking heavily adorned satin and luxurious black silk velvet evening gown is a perfect example of mid-century couture glamour. The bodice has an alluring wide scalloped neckline with slightly padded shoulders and lean, long button-trimmed sleeves. Nina Ricci adds an impressive interior boned corset structure to help keep the perfect hourglass shape. There is opulent glass beads and sparkling prong-set rhinestones covering the entire front. This workmanship alone must have taken weeks to complete. The fitted nipped-waist with back belt detail gives the garment the most flattering 'new look' silhouette. I especially love the black and white block color design. So timeless and effortlessly elegant. At this time Nina Ricci was in the same league as Christian Dior and Pierre Balmain, and you can clearly see why in her brilliant talent. This documented French haute couture gown would make such an epic wedding guest look or red carpet moment! A true museum worthy work of art.

This Nina Ricci haute couture designer gown is in wonderful wearable condition with no holes, fade or alternations. Presents beautifully. The garment closes with original back French éclair metal zipper. There is gorgeous corset boning throughout the bodice to keep the shape. Shown with an additional petticoat skirt which is not included. After close inspection we found a few faint spots to the ivory skirt and some missing beadwork which is not noticeable when worn. Please message for detailed pictures. Though the label is no longer present, the editorial picture and true custom couture work confirms it is a Nina Ricci creation. A true piece of French mid-century fashion history.

Fantastic Trail Guide
Format: Paperback
From the very beginning of this book, you can tell where Tami’s heart is. She genuinely loves this trail and being in the outdoors. It is written in a way to be easy to read, but filled with priceless facts and experience. I am very grateful to have this jewel at my fingertips to plan my hike of the Wonderland Trail about a year and a half from now.

very useful details, and some humor
If you're going to hike the WL this is the book to get. Lots of very, very useful details, and some humor. She really understands trail hiking. Hint: to save weight download it to a Kindle. (I'm not really an Amazon employee!). Then, read the information about the section you will be hiking next in the evening before or first thing while you're eating your oatmeal. ps: The WL trail is challenging but incredibly worth it. Get the book but more important, hike the trail.

A heartfelt, inspiring travelogue and meditation on living well
Format: Hardcover
Gordon Bernhardt's Buen Camino is a great accomplishment and a thoroughly enjoyable and thought-provoking read. Gordon opens his generous heart and extraordinary life to his readers and takes us with him, winding through a fascinating, historically informed and personally reflective commentary on the places and people of this ancient journey, his own life, memories, fears, triumphs, his personal commitment to service and growth in his life's work, and his connections with a remarkable community of fellow travelers on the road. The many photographs and questions for personal reflection at the end of each chapter were very effective. I was left with a desire to someday walk this path myself, and with a great appreciation and admiration for Gordon's persistence and positivity, both in making this journey and in his life and work.

A Heartfelt Story to Help Us Embrace Our Personal Journeys
Format: Kindle
“Buen Camino: What a Hike Through Spain Taught Me about Investing and Life” is a heartfelt story by author Gordon Bernhardt about his adventure traveling the Camino de Santiago beginning in France and ending in Spain. It is much more than a travelogue; it is a journey into life lessons both in Gordon’s personal life but also in his professional life. He includes deep revelations, humor, and puts readers in the setting of the pilgrimage through his words and images. I highly recommend this positive book reminding readers to enjoy our moments, appreciate our fellowship with other humans, and embrace our personal journeys.

An inspiring book on the uplifting qualities of the Camino pilgrimage
Format: Kindle, Format: Kindle
I highly recommend the book, “Buen Camino”, written by Gordon J. Bernhardt. It is focused on his 2018, 35-day pilgrimage/trek called the Camino de Santiago, or The Way of Saint James. The walk starts in the Pyrennes at St Jean Pied de Port in France and ends at the Santiago de Compostela Cathedral in northern Spain, then to the coastal towns of Muxia and Finisterre, 618 miles later. Gordon shares what the pilgrimage meant to him as a way to reset his life, his interaction with the pilgrims along the way and the life lessons learned, how to handle unexpected problems and opportunities, and the importance of stepping away from our busy lives to help us focus on the true priorities. He blends his experience on the Camino with his profession in wealth management, and how helping/interacting with people in his personal, professional, and spiritual life has enriched his existence. After reading this book, you will walk (pardon the pun) with a different view of what is truly important in your life.
