Spring forward
or back
Trends recall the 70s and make a new colorful statement
Heidi Mae Bratt

eter Benchleys beach chiller,


Jaws, was published. Patty
Hearst, granddaughter of media
magnate William Randolph
Hearst, was kidnapped by the Symbionese Liberation Army. Good Times, a
sitcom about an African American family living in a Chicago housing project,
debuted on television. People magazine, the iconic celebrity monthly, was
launched. And in one of the most stunning political turns in U. S. history, a
besmirched Richard Nixon resigned as
our 37th president.
The year was 1974, and events that
dominated the headlines were as wild
as the vertical stripes and horizontal
stripes that dominated the ensembles
of the flare-legged, scarves-as-headband-headed (remember Rhoda?), and
fringe-embellished fashion followers,
who got their look through a splash
of colors that matched; patterns that
clashed; and hems that went mini, midi
and maxi when they werent going
super-duper short in hot pants.
Fast forward to today when Apple
and Blackberry mean more than just
fruit. Yet, when it comes to fashion,
whats old is new again.
We are seeing the 70s all over
again, said Susan Sommers, former
fashion magazine editor and founder of
Dresszing, a wardrobe-styling company
that helps clients dress for maximum
success. For anyone who lived through
the 70s, and dressed through the 70s,
were now wondering, why did we ever
throw out our suede jackets and dresses?
Seeing such 70s staples like the poor
boy rib-knit sweaters, boxy shaped jackets, bold printed separates paired to
match or better yet, paired to mismatch
which characterized the decade that
dawned with the Beatles breakup
announcement and ended with the
rise of punk rock pop up on todays
shelves and racks is giving younger
fashionistas a fresh perspective, and
giving more mature fashionistas a bit of
nostalgia.
Thats what fashion is all about,
said Ms. Sommers. Recreating what
has already existed and bringing it on in
a new and exciting way.

fabric, available at Monte Carlo in
Westwood.

Uomo in Englewood.

Now, whats that old saw about if you


wore it the first time around, dont think
about wearing it again?
The truth is womens bodies do
change, said Ms. Sommers. So most of
us cant or shouldnt wear the same
things we wore many decades ago, but
we certainly can work in pieces of the
past into our present wardrobes.
Locally, styles reminiscent of the 70s
have made their way into Bergen County fashion emporiums, such as Mishelynes in Teaneck, said its proprietor, Sara.
For example, a spring palette of
bright colors like fuchsia, orange, and
yellow, and bold prints like small floral,
bohemian-looking patterns and geometric prints has emerged a perfect
fashion antidote to the harsh gray and
snow saddled winter that were leaving
behind.
Flare-bottomed pants, including the
wide-legged palazzo pants, are back,
and becoming very popular. So much
so, that FLOTUS, Michelle Obama, herself a watched fashion role model, was
seen sporting a pair of palazzo pants in
a recent television appearance.
To celebrate the fifth year anniver-

sary of her Lets Move! Campaign, Ms.


Obama went on the Ellen DeGeneres
Show where she sashayed with the
comedian. Ms. DeGeneres was sporting
her signature skinny jeans; Mrs. Obama
was dressed in a black top, cropped
jacket, white tennis shoes and Phillip
Lim wide-leg palazzo pants.
Another 70s theme being played
out at Mishelynes, said Sara, is fringes,
which are embellishing casual leather

skirts and conservative cardigans alike.
Sara noted that she recently sold an
elegant black and white fringed cardigan, describing it as an ageless piece,
to a customer who was in her 70s.
There is another era that also has
made its mark on this season, evidenced by the ubiquity of lace. The
romantic and feminine look of the early
20th century, as seen in the popular PBS
series, Downton Abbey, is influencing
those who want to capture the glamour
of that era.
People will come into the store and
they would tell me that they saw some-

thing they liked on Downton Abbey,
and ask if we could get them something
like it, Sara said. The show has definitely influenced people.
Romance is in the air at The Engle
Shop in Englewood as well, said store
manager, Maria Parlatto. Softer fabrics such as chiffon and lace reign in a
romantic spring look, especially in evening dresses in tones that are as soft as
lavender, or as bold as Kelly green.
For the guys, blue is the new black
this spring, said Rob Roselli, who works
with his father Mario Roselli, owner of
Vero Uomo in Englewood.
A distinct shade of French Blue has
emerged as the it color for sports
jackets and trim suits. Suits are paired
with cognac or chestnut shoes and belt,
white shirts, and no tie, for a chic and
dressed-up look. Sports jackets marry
well with gray pants, again with the silhouette being lean and tapered.
At Monte Carlo in Westwood, owner
Diana Yomtobian said that long-sleeved
sports shirts with fabric details on the
inside collar and cuffs are extremely hot
this spring.
You open up the buttons at the top
and you see a different fabric. It absolutely enhances the colors in the shirt,

Chic in Ridgewood.

said Ms. Yomtobian.


Also very popular are slim dress jeans
in yellow, blue, and red. The under-30
crowd is snapping up the skinny jeans.
For the more mature man, Ms. Yomtobian recommends gentleman jeans,
which are slimmer than the old lines,
but not quite as skinny as skinny jeans.
To finish the look, button up with a vest
another piece of clothing that hearkens back to the 70s.
At vintage shops, the 70s need not
be replicated, but an original piece can
be found at places such as Ridgewoodbased consignment boutique, Savvy
Chic, which carries high-end designer
fashions and accessories.

SPRING STYLE

Owner Randi Morein said that the


drawstring bucket bags are big sellers,
with such designer names as Chanel,
Fendi, Prada, among others.
And when finishing the look, dont
forget the bling this spring.
When it comes to jewelry, color is also
big, said Randi Shinske, owner of Red
Velvet Luxe in Ridgewood.
Look for precious and semi-precious
colored stones, such as sapphires,
rubies, emeralds, as well as tourmaline and topaz. Large colorful stones
are being set in more yellow gold these
days, which has returned in popularity
since its price has stabilized.
But the biggest selling items are
bracelets. And not just a single bracelet.
A whole bunch. The more bracelets, the
merrier.
Bracelets are very hot, said Ms.
Shinske. Not just one, but a ton of
bracelets that are stacked up, and are
in different colors. Were mixing white
and yellow golds. Everything goes. Why
are bracelets so popular? I think its
because bracelets usually fit most people, and its a relatively inexpensive way
to update your wardrobe.
If she could turn back time, Cher
would be proud.

rends in hairstyling and hair


color are constantly changing, and its the job of a good
hairstylist to keep current
and help clients stay fashionable.
But a good hairstylist also knows
its important to do what works
best for the client, and blue hair
(yes, blue hair) may not be the wisest choice, even though the client
wants it.
This according to 30-year industry veteran Suzanne Schiller, owner
of the family salon Suzannes Hair
and Colour Room in Oradell and
a regular at the annual International Beauty Show, held this year
in March at the Jacob Javits Center in Manhattan. I love trends as
much as the next person. But, just
because bold colors work for Katy
Perry, it doesnt mean theyll work
for you, she said referring to the
American singer, songwriter, and
pop icon who, of late, sports blue
hair. My clients are loyal to me
because I do what compliments
them, she said.
With that caveat, Schiller is
happy to discuss hair trends for
2015, starting with color and the
changes to going blond that are
sweeping the womens fashion
scene. On the one hand, blond
is darkening a bit and warming
up for spring. On the other hand,
some blonds are going to platinum and champagnethe Marilyn Monroe look. These shades are
really hot, right now, said Schiller,
who noted that hairstylists get a
heads-up on future trends because
they work closely with the fashion
designers who set them.
At red-carpet runway shows,
they dress the models and we do
their hair, so were first to see the
new in looks, she said.
And, rainbow hair is definitely
in. Shades include pink, lavender, and pastels in a process that
requires the hair to be stripped
with bleach so the new color will
adhere. A variation is the dip-dye,
in which just the hair ends are
stripped and colored, a look popular with girls. Pastel rainbow is
gorgeous. But, I tell parents not to
let their children do it by themselves. The process could burn the
hair and should be done by a professional, Schiller advised.
Bold colors, ala Katy Perry, are
also big. Schiller calls the look daring and artsy, but one that is more
apt to be popular in big cities than
elsewhere. Suburban moms are
wearing it, but as a peekaboo high-

light or an underlying color. You


wont see anyone in the suburbs
walking their kids to school with a
full head of purple hair, she said.
For women who are not ready
to commit to a new color, Schiller notes other current trends,
such as semi-permanent hues
that wash out after a few weeks,
peekaboo highlights, dip-dyes,
and ombres (a dark tone transitioning into a lighter tone), all of
which are temporary. In addition,
hair extensions are hot. They are
complete vanity, and both women
and girls love them. Extensions can
be very temporary or last up to six
months, depending upon how they
are attached to the hair, Schiller
explained.
Even more temporary is hair
chalk, a trend that has really taken
off. You paint it on with your fingers and it gives you color that lasts
for a day. Those are really fun, she
said.
In the hairstyling department,
braids for girls are in. Also popular for both women and girls are
slicked-back hair; short, edgy, chic
pixy cuts; and mid-length bobs
with fringes (bangs). For long hair,
the beach-wave and bed-head
looksmessy and sexy, the way
the Kardashian girls wear their
hairare big, Schiller said.
Turning to trends for men, the
dapper look is back, with haircuts
reminiscent of the 1940sshort on
the sides, long on top, and slicked
back. Its called an undercut, and
women are doing it, too. On men it
looks masculine and on women its
feminine.
Beards are back in a big way
both close-shaved and longas
are mustaches, while sideburns
are out. And men in their 30s and

40s who are going gray are putting


subtle color in their hair. I start
my guys young with what I call
a steel hair wash. Its kind of my
own trend. I add a little color to
the shampoo and wash their hair.
It makes the gray look like steel,
Schiller said.
There are trends in products,
too. For men with short hair, waxes
hold a style and give it definition.
Theyre using them on beards, as
well. Women use waxes too, and
for those who wear braids or the
beach-wave, there are dry shampoos. With a nod toward being ecofriendly, there are also sulfate-free
shampoos.
So, what does a hairdresser take
into consideration when deciding
what works best for a client?
At my salon, I train my stylists to have client consultations,
whether they know the client for 30
years or three minutes. When a client sits in the chair, the first thing
we do is ask questions: Do you
want the same thing or something
new? What do you do for a living?
Do you have children? What kind
of time do you have in the morning? What kind of lifestyle do you
have? Are you athletic? We want to
get to know someone before we
start the service.
I had a client who came in on a
Saturday wearing sweats. She was
a lawyer, but looked like she could
have been a yoga instructor. Trends
are not for everyone. You have to
ask questions and then see how far
you can go in making your clients
look their best, Schiller said.
She sums up with these words
of wisdom: Regardless of your age
and your position, feel free to be
creative. Live life to the fullest. Its
only hair dye.

Chic girls ask Savvy questions!


Dear Savvy,
What gives a Chanel handbag
its mystique?
A Chanel handbags is an iconic and
classic purse that everyone should have
in their handbag collection..
Chanel handbags are extremely well
made, durable, stylish, and classic without being trendy.
Each handbag comes with an
authenticity card and a hologram sewn
into the inside of the bag. The numbers
should match.
Chanel handbags are very expensive
and are the perfect purse to buy in a
consignment store. You get the quality
and style you are looking for without the
expense.
Dont be afraid to buy a bag that
is not in perfection condition. If you
love it you can always take your bag
to the Chanel Spa. Any Chanel store
will send it off to be fixed. They can redye, re-stitch, add new hardware, even
replace the entire lining so your bag
looks as good as new for a fraction of
the price!
Vintage Chanel bags are also fun to
hunt for because you can find one that
nobody else is carrying. Chanel handbags also hold their value. People collect
them and are always on the lookout so

if and when you want a change, you can


consign what you have and buy what
you want.
Chanel and consigning, the perfect
combo for a Savvy shopper!
Dear Savvy,
Love Love Love Hermes scarves
but dont know how to wear them.
Any suggestions?
The beauty of Hermes scarves is not
only the pattern and craftsmanship but
the colors. They add a touch of je ne
sais quoi to any outfit. Here are some
ideas on how to wear a Hermes scarf.
One of my favorites, tied around
the handle of your favorite handbag.

Whether its a favorite bag or youre a


lucky girl who owns a Birkin, the scarf
adds a touch of elegance.
Hermes scarves are great as a halter
to wear with your favorite pair of white
jeans on holiday or under a great boyfriend jacket. So in right now. Just fold
the scarf into a triangle, tie the two sides
of the top of the triangle around your
neck, tie the tail ends around your waist
and you are ready for whatever (or whoever) comes your way!
Use it as a belt. Probably one of the
best ways to use it in the summer and
you can tie it many different ways. What

a great way to dress up your everyday


jeans.
How about as a headband? Jackie O cornered the market on this look
but you too can be a classic beauty and
fashion icon using your Hermes scarf
this way.
Over a classic tee, this one punches
up any outfit. Fold into a triangle, put
the triangle on the front of your neck
with the point hanging down, take an
end in each hand and wrap around the
back of your neck and bring to the front
and tie in a knot.
Another simple option for that I
just threw myself together look. Fold
the scarf into a triangle, put it around
your neck, and leave the ends hanging
down in front. Tie a knot in one of the
ends about halfway down and slide the
other end into the knot. Simple but chic.
At Savvy Chic Consignment Boutique
we have exquisite examples of Hermes
scarves in perfect condition without
paying the high price a new one commands. Or consign the ones you have to
make room for new ones. So stop in to
see our selection and begin your collection of Hermes scarves.

Ribbon cutting welcomes Miri to Englewood

iri Urbach cut the ribbon last Tuesday


to officially mark the opening of Miri,
37 North Dean Street in Englewood.
James A. Dunn, chair of the Englewood Chamber of Commerce, who attended the
ribbon cutting, said, Englewood is a destination for savvy shoppers. It is a trendy town with
unique boutiques and very personalized service.
Miri is a great addition with a perfect location for
the store. We are pleased they have selected our
town.
Miri specializes in special occasion outfits.
Ms. Urbach designs the gowns which are made
from beautiful, imported fabrics in her flagship
location in Cedarhurst, N.Y. They are sent to
Paris and Italy where embroidery and beading
are painstakingly done to Ms. Urbachs exacting standards. There are Miri stores in New York,
London, and Israelone in Ramat Gan and one
in Jerusalem. Each store has only one or two couture gowns of each design available so the customer knows she is getting an exclusive creation.
In addition to couture gowns, Ms. Urbach
designs a line of ready-to-wear cocktail dresses
and suits. Her daughter, a recent college graduate, has joined the business and designs the Miri
2.0 line of more casual Shabbos and Yom Tov
clothes. Miri Shoes are coming this spring.
Ms. Urbach goes to Paris several times a year
for design inspiration. Prints are in now, Ms.

Urbach said. The spring line is currently in production; she is now designing for fall.
Miri in Cedarhurst includes a bridal salon and
Ms. Urbach is beginning to bring bridal gowns
and gowns for the mother and sister-of-thebride to Englewood. Ive seen brides in tears
trying on dresses that are strapless or simply not
flattering, Ms. Urbach said. Miri bridal gowns
are available for sale or rent, and like all Miri creations, altered to fit perfectly.
Ms. Urbach designs for all women but loves
the challenge of dressing Orthodox women like
her who want beautiful, but modest clothing.
Few people know how to make clothes that
fit well but are still kosher, she said. Fit is the
number one most important aspect to how a
dress looks. I fit a dress to five or six models
before putting it into production. Ms. Urbach
gives all her managers a training course on how
to fit and provide the best customer service. Her
accomplished seamstresses stand ready to alter
a dress, including sleeves and necklines, to the
clients specifications.
Ms. Urbach is happy to be opening in Englewood; it is her tenth store. Englewood is a lovely
place and were excited were here, she said.
She caters each store to its neighborhood.
Englewood, she sees, wants edgy, trendy clothes,
so she is adding designs to her line that will fill
that need.

man unveiled last year at the International Housewares Association Show in


Chicago. The following is a summary of
these palettes, excerpted from a press
release put out by the association.
Style Settings: As high fashion is
often a forerunner to styling for home
furnishings in line, design, texture and
color, this palette is all about pose,
finesse and polish. The elegance of the
purple family adds a dramatic interplay against the classic mahoganies,
off-whites, grays and taupes, along
with Frosted Almond and Champagne
Beige.
Abstractions: This palette releases
the inner artist in each of us, Eiseman said. Just as in the formulation of
abstract art, styling might seem randomly gathered, forming a mosaic of
differing shapes, many of them geometric. Colors like grape and apricot, dahlia
red, stonewashed blue, hazel nut brown
and vineyard green come from equally disparate places, but when brought
together create an artistic whole.
Botanicum: This palette is lifted
directly from the complexities of flora
and foliage, forming intriguing groupings filled with succulent shadings of
green and grape and caf au lait, coun-

ative, and expects that designers will


draw from tried-and-true color palettes
as well as unconventional ones, and
will employ unexpected and refreshing
color combinations.
To illustrate, Eiseman points to the
green family and says the color will continue to be popular this year, expanding
into hues that include Hunter Green
and greenish-yellows. And, although
the orange family puzzles her, she says
it is capturing attention and people are
slowly embracing it. Orange is undergoing some variations. If you want to do
orange, combine it with peaches, which
are coming on very strong.
Expect blues to be more crisp and
energized, she adds, and for reds to
have a strong presence in the housewares industry, with newer and fresher
voices of red combining with orange,
pink and purple. Also, neutrals are
making a strong presence, particularly
with kids apparel, and black and white
is here to stay.
These and other colors are included
in a set of nine palettes that the Pantone Color Institute forecasted as key
color trends for 2015 and which Eise-

according to Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the
Pantone Color Institute, a provider of color trend forecasting,
color insights, and customized
color consulting.
Consumer preferences, behaviors, and lifestyles are constantly
evolving, spawning a desire for fresh
color palettes in both home and interior design. While rigid color rules have

Tinted Medley

terbalanced with dusty or smoky tones


of blue and orchid.
Zensations: This palette engages and
heightens the senses as it displays a
literal enlightenment by taking the
thoughtful, meditative qualities of the
blue and blue-green family to another
more visceral level by adding to the palette a compelling red, an atmospheric
green, and a sparkling silver and gold.
Urban Jungle: Eiseman said that
this palette transforms rustic chaos
into something civilized and sylvan,
speaking more of big city living than
that of a wild terrain. Rather than consistently rough textured, contours are
smoother and colors a combination of
both typical and atypical jungle hues.
Warm animal skin tones are set against
the modernity of deep blue-greens, a
vibrant greenish yellow, plus black and
white.
Tinted Medley: This palette is a harmonious composition of closely related warm tones with peach and pink
striking the main chord. Bellini, Apricot
Wash, Peach Amber, and Macadamia
are compatible blends while powdered
roses and yellows underscore and support the perfect pitch of a rosy-taupe.
Past Traces: This palette honors his-

tory in the home as many of us are looking for some vestige of the past that
is satisfying and reassuring. The look
might range from gently worn to contemporized adaptations, with many
color names like Pastel Parchment,
Cameo Green, Faded Denim, and Dusty
Cedar.
Serendipity: The literal meaning
of Serendipity is a pleasant surprise
or happy accident. In the parlance
of styling, it is the coming together of
unlikely designs and unexpected colors. An outgoing orange engages cool
eggshell blue, bright chartreuse is
enhanced by a yellow gold and hot pink
embraces a lofty scarlet, all under the
watchful gaze of a Tigers Eye taupe.
Spontaneity: Irrepressible fun is
what this palette called Spontaneity
delivers. Just as the name implies, it
is the stuff that spur-of-the-moment,
impulse-buying is all about, with
whimsical design and a unique mashup of color mixtures a large part of the
attraction. Happy hues of Sunkist Coral,
Marigold, and Cantaloupe are complemented by Kelly Green and/or quieted down with floral accents of Hyacinth, Violet Quartz, Winsome Orchid,
or Misty Jade.

The perks of
permaculture
Reduces maintenance, preserves resources
and boosts curb appeal and resale value
Teresa Iqbal

f youre looking to start a garden in the near future,


why not create one that will require very little maintenance and resources, including time? It may
sound too good to be true, but the explanation is
simple. Permaculture is a practice of agriculture that
takes advantage of the natural ecosystems and habits
of nature. Because using this method allows plants to
use resources more efficiently, you can save precious
resources while creating a garden or landscape that is
long-lasting and abundant.
One of the best approaches to take when establishing a system of permaculture in your home is to
choose to grow perennial flowers and other perennial
plants. Perennial plants return year after year with little to no maintenance. This means that you only have
to plant them once to reap the benefits for a lifetime.
There are lots of perennial flowers available to
choose from. Hydrangeas, lavender and peonies are all
examples of flowers that will continue to bloom each
year. For homeowners, perennial flowers can prove
especially enticing, as they help to establish a beautiful
landscape that will accentuate a home for many years
to come.
For those who choose to utilize their outdoor space
as a vegetable garden instead, there are many vegetable perennials to take advantage of, as well. Artichokes
and asparagus are two common perennial favorites.
Although they make take a few years to get established,
they will indeed produce every year once they are
mature enough. There are several hardy herbs, such as
rosemary and sage, that also require very little maintenance. They can be easily harvested and used to add
variety and flavor to many different dishes.
When it comes to preparing the gardening space
for your perennial plants, sheet mulching is a useful
permacultural practice to consider. Mulch is a central
tool for keeping weeds down, keeping water where its
needed, and keeping work to a minimum.
Sheet mulching (also called lasagna composting)
consists of several layers of organic materials. Its a
process that is best done in advance of any planting
so that the materials have time to adequately break
down. You want to begin with a layer of cardboard
or newspaper, which helps to keep weeds from penetrating into your garden. Then you will need to
cover this layer with about an inch of nitrogen material. This can include vegetable scraps, used coffee
grounds and fresh grass clippings. Next, add an inch
of carbon material, which could be leaves, wood
chips or more newspaper or cardboard. Continue
to layer an inch of the nitrogen and carbon material one on top of another until the desired height is
reached.
Chop n drop is another form of permacultural
mulching. Chop n drop helps to keep soil healthy by
conserving water, preventing weeds and providing it
with beneficial nutrients by simply letting the pruned
leaves of plants fall to the ground. This creates the
layer of natural mulch.

Greenbaum Interiors opens in Ridgewood

reenbaum Interiors, headquartered in historic


downtown Paterson since 1952, has expanded
into Bergen County with a new design studio
located at 584 Route 17 North at the Racetrack
Road exit in Ridgewood. The new building is a design
center showcasing a variety of furniture styles but
focuses on a wide array of fabrics, wall coverings and
design options. They also have a showroom in Morristown.
Susan Greenbaum-Gross, president of the company and a resident of Upper Saddle River, explained,
Customers can come in on their own and make a
selection or enjoy the services of one of our talented
in-house designers who will subsequently visit them
in their home. We are also a valued resource for outside designers, offering them an unrivaled selection all
under one roof as well as custom pieces that cannot be
found elsewhere.
Greenbaum Interiors carries the lines of over 2,000
vendors, including Century, Hickory Chair, Theodore
Alexander, and Lillian August. According to Greenbaum-Gross, its all about customers satisfaction.
Contemporary and traditional styles are available as
well as one-of-a-kind antiques and area rugs purchased in Europe or Asia, unusual accessories, and
fabrics and wallcoverings of every type imaginable.
Many pieces are custom designs manufactured in their
workrooms in Paterson. Greenbaum-Gross emphasizes that they work to meet all design needs, large or
small, as well as all budgets.
The new G2 Collection is great for younger clients
just starting their first home.
We offer the ultimate personal shopping experience. We have tremendous resources, but if we cannot
find the right product in our inventory or locate it, we
will design it and make it. Nothing is impossible and
no job too big or too small.
Specialized workrooms are what sets Greenbaums
apart. Custom pieces are built or custom finishes
added to stock pieces to make each piece just right.
Customer-owned pieces can be restored or resized if

an owner downsizes or relocates. Recovering a customers piece often freshens up an entire room. Artisans work from designers sketches creating each piece
to the most exact specifications. The process allows
their designers and customers a chance to see the
pieces come to life, leaving room as well for last minute changes or enhancements.
The majority of our clients live in Bergen County.

We decided to bring our services closer to them to


make the design process even more convenient for
them. We are very excited to have found the perfect
location after a lengthy search and look forward to
continuing to provide the excellent services our clients
have come to expect.

Carpet basics and trends for 2015


June Glazer

heres nothing like the feel of


carpeting under your bare feet.
Sink into a plush velvet pile and
you know youve stepped into
some serious luxury. Likewise, nothing complements your home or office
furnishings like a beautiful carpet, and
with proper care, a good one will last

for years.
So, what are the ABCs of carpeting
and where are trends headed this year?
Location, location, location: Where
you decide to lay carpeting or rugs will
determine the style, color, and texture
you choose, says Judy Rosenberg, coowner with husband Abe of Direct Line

Carpet and Flooring, a 30-year family


business with stores in Lakewood and
Teaneck.
Carpeting gives a room a warm,
cozy feeling, and there are thousands
of styles to choose from, Rosenberg
says, adding that area use should be the
primary concern for customers when
selecting floor covering.
For example, high-traffic areas such
as hallways and stairs do best with a
strong, durable carpet such as a level
loop pile in a moderately dark or striped
color, or chunky carpets with a variable
pile height in a forgiving color.
In a bedroom you could go with
something a little higher and plushier
because theres not as much traffic as
there is in a family room, study, or hallway. Once I know customers tastes, I
can guide them toward carpeting that
will handle their specific traffic needs,
Rosenberg says.
Adhering to the principle that form
follows function, style and color are the
next elements to take into consideration when buying carpeting, and thats
where trends become important. This
year, industry analysts have carpet fashion moving toward longer loops such
as big, chunky spun yarns and deeper
tones; and rustic colors such as neutrals, creams, and warm and cool tones
of gray. Luxurious new styles include
dense twists, chunky felts and oversized
loop piles; new blends that combine
wool with silk, linen, cotton, paper and
more; and vintage and nostalgia
looks.
Grays and silvers are big now, as is
the gothic-patterned look, says Gaye
Levine, owner for 37 years with her
husband, Sam, of the franchise store G.
Fried Carpet in Paramus. Were noticing trends toward geometric designs
such as boxes and triangles, and also
toward transitional styles. Transitionals
go with any decor, she says.
Michael Nazar of Starr Carpeting in
Englewood agrees. Ive been in business for 37 years, so I have seen all kinds
of styles come and go. For many years
everything was traditional and floral
with warm colors. But for the past three
years, the more modern geometric
designs have been hot. So have grays,
taupes, and whites, he says.
Texture is another important element
to consider when choosing carpeting.
Wool and other natural fibers are annual favorites, but advances in technology
and creative design have made manmade textures popular since the new
fibers are affordable, durable, and easy
to clean.
Soft is in, says Ed Wallace of The
Hallmark Floor Company in Ridgewood. New fibers and treatments are
making carpets softer and attracting

the attention of consumers. It used to


be that softer carpets would mat and
crush, but manufacturers have come
up with new ways to resist matting and
crushing so you can have soft carpet
that maintains its texture. Thats very
popular right now, he says.
So is carpeting with sheen. Synthetic material that resembles the feel and
look of silk is very big. Its a little more
fragile than silk, but silk can get pricy
when youre doing wall-to-wall, so customers like it as an alternative option,
Nazar says.
Technology is setting a trend in commercial use, as well. Offices are moving
away from private space to larger open
areas with partition-system furniture,
notes Wallace. Carpet tile is becoming popular because of durability and
the fact that its coming down in price.
At one time, carpet tile cost up to 50%
more than regular carpet. But, because
of the way manufacturers are now making it, the price is comparable to regular
broadloom.
And carpet tile, with its new and
improved designs and colors, wears longer than broadloom. If a tile gets damaged or stained it can easily be replaced.
Not so with regular carpeting. Plus, it
vacuums and cleans up easily. Things
like paper clips and staples dont get
caught in carpet tile as much, Wallace
explains.
While one would expect that the type
and amount of care required to keep
carpets and rugs beautiful would also
be a consideration in their selection,
Rosenberg is quick to point out that all
carpets have built-in stain protection
and need little more than water and
Mr. Clean to maintain them. Unless
its something really awful, and then
you simply call in a professional carpet
cleaner, she advises.
So, if youre in the market for carpeting, whats the first step you should
take? The main thing about decorating
is that you should have continuity of
color throughout the house. You dont
want color to be choppy, especially if
its a small home. We always tell people to bring us a sample of their color
scheme, whether its a pillow or a paintingsomething with which they want
to coordinate color, Levine says.
Then, let the professionals do
what they do best. For instance,
we can take a gothic look, put a gorgeous mohair trim on it, and the carpet becomes a wow. So, its not really
about what the carpet industry is up
to or whats trending at the moment,
but rather about what we can do to
make the carpeting you choose exciting, Levine says.
And as any trendsetter knows, exciting is good.

Save money on headboard replacements

Jeanelle D. Horcasitas

uying furniture is an expensive endeavor, but


living on a tight budget doesnt mean that you
have to sacrifice your sense of style. It can be an
opportunity to be creative.
For those with small bedrooms, having too much
furniture can make the room appear cluttered and

even smaller. Fortunately, you can do without bulky


items, such as a nightstand, dresser or armoire, and
replace them with organizers to make the room appear
more spacious.
There are beds that you can purchase with built-in
drawers; however, that can get a little pricey. Addi-

SPRING STYLE

tionally, many of these beds are not raised, which can


be problematic if you like underneath bed storage.
So now its time to get creative. First, purchase an
organizer cubby to place at the edge of your bed. You
can choose to store extra pillows, blankets, shoes or
anything you please in the compartments. For smaller
items or clothing, I would suggest purchasing storage
bins. You can buy fabric, wood or plastic storage bins
in any shape, size, and color.
For more hidden storage options, consider hanging
closet organizers, double-hanging closet organizers,
or even sterile drawers from Target, Ikea, or Big Lots, to
utilize as much closet space as possible. Whatever you
choose, these new storage ideas will help expand your
space. And with more room, theres more to love.
Cant live without work? Make your bed into a
hybrid desk space with a loft bed. Loft beds are a great
space-saver. Loft beds typically get associated with
young kids, but they work for adults, too.
If you like the idea of being surrounded by books,
but do not necessarily love the height of a loft bed,
there is an alternative. Create your own bookshelf
headboard. First, purchase a bed without a headboard.
Second, purchase two medium- or tall-sized bookshelves that will serve as the pillars to your headboard.
Lastly, buy a long shelf (or a flat piece of wood); I would
suggest Home Depot or Lowes to get the exact proportions and dimensions, to bridge across the two bookshelf pillars. For your safety, secure your bookshelves
by nailing them to the wall. Once this has been done,
you should also nail the overarching shelf to the bookshelves to keep everything connected as one unit. Lastly, do not place heavy items on the shelf atop of the two
bookshelves, to avoid any accidents from happening.
Now your new headboard is complete! Feel free to add
books, decor, storage bins - you want it to fit your style.
With these alternatives you can stay close to your studies or work from the comfort of your own bed.
Although the previous examples can be bought from
a store, for a repurposed DIY feel, use cinder blocks as
a bed base. If youre not too fond of the industrial look,
bust out your paintbrush and add some color to the
blocks before setting them up. However, be extremely
careful that there is not a lot of open space between
the cinder block foundation and the mattress; you
do not want to fall off your bed. Wooden pallets are
another great option as they are easy to paint, and you
can add more to create your desired height. For more
inspiration, check out the many boards dedicated to
bedroom DIY on Pinterest.
So whether youre moving into a new place or you
want to revamp your current look, these ideas will

SPRING 2015

SPRING STYLE

Boxed in
Making moving easier
Sharon Naylor

ew days are as nerve-wracking as


moving day. All of your belongings
are in boxes, you cant find your
toothbrush, the movers are wrapping up your flat-screen TV, and youre
snapping at your partner or kids. To
help lower your anxiety levels on moving day, take these essential steps:

Prior to Moving Day:


Lighten your load. Go through all of
your belongings, especially those in
storage, and pare down. Donate, recycle, sell or dispose of items you no longer need.
Get organization supplies. To save
time labeling boxes, select a different
color of duct tape to represent each
room. Create a master list designating
a color for each room, and place a roll
of that color tape in the room as you
pack, says Nancy Haworth, professional organizer at On Task Organizing.
Get optimally sized boxes. Mix large
boxes that will be heavy when full with
smaller, easier-to-manage containers.
For example, tall wardrobe boxes keep
your clothing organized, wrinkle-free
and easy to pack and unpack. Or, place
first-use items in clear plastic bins for
easy location and access.
Write detailed lists of whats inside
each box, not just kitchen. This way,
youll know just which box to access
your coffeemaker and filters when you
reach your destination.
Use high-quality tape and a tape
gun. Cheap tape might not stick to your
boxes very well, and a tape gun will

make box construction and closing go


faster and more efficiently.
Start packing well in advance. Focus
on getting teens and other slow-movers
in your family to get a jump on their
packing as well. Make a list of items
that each family member should leave
unpacked until moving day: sneakers,
school supplies and other essentials.
This will reduce the chance of needing
to rifle through already-packed boxes.
Photograph the backs of your electronics before taking them apart, so
that it will be easier to set up your computers, televisions, and sound systems
when you reach your new home.
Number your boxes (e.g., 1 of 50)
to verify no boxes have gone missing in
the move.
Pack a couple of days of clothing,
toiletries and medications as if you were
going on a trip. Keep these bags with
you on moving day, says Haworth.
Especially in long-distance moves, moving trucks can get detoured or delayed,
separating your belongings from you for
most of a day if not several days. With
your separate bag, you have access to
toiletries and a change of clothes.
Before the move, take photos of
furniture and other important items. In
case anything is damaged in the move,
you will have proof of the original condition, says Haworth.

On Moving Day
Be realistic about your timeframe.
Your moving company may estimate
four hours to load the moving truck, but

weather and other factors may make it


six. Make no plans for later, and accept
that this may be an all-day event. And if
youve booked your own moving truck,
plan on an all-day rental to avoid price
escalation for each extra hour you have
the truck.
Have a concrete plan for the movers. Discuss the plan with your partner
before the movers arrive, avoiding disagreements and delays.
Charge your cellphone, and keep
your charger handy in case you need it
later.
Keep important papers with you.
Keep all medications with you,
including prescription, allergy, pain
medications and extra contact lenses
for your comfort and care.
Meet your kids and pets needs. On
a hectic moving day, its easy to miscommunicate about walking the dog,
and kids may be extra demanding if
theyre unhappy or nervous. Kids and
pets pick up on anxiety levels of others
around them, so do your best to keep
your cool.

Take breaks, and stay hydrated. This


is hard work, and being thirsty will lead
to greater fatigue.
Plan a special lunch or snack for
after the moving truck is all packed.
Having something tasty to look forward
to will help the hours pass. You might go
to a pizza place or have a final picnic on
the floor of your old home.
Before you leave, take a moment to
talk with your family about your favorite
memories in your old home, and how
much youre looking forward to new
memories in the new home. Sharing
gratitude will send an important message to your children.
Lastly, take photographs of your
empty home to provide proof of no residential damage when you moved (in
case of security deposit disputes or complaints by the new owners). Do the same
with your new home when you arrive to
have the untouched rooms on record.

Home security details


Securing the sanctuary you call home
Chelle Cordero

ome is the place where we are supposed to be


able to close the door on the outside world and
shut out noise, commotion, and worries. Home
should be the place where we can feel safe.
Too often, uninvited intruders disrupt that calm.
Unwelcome access to our homes makes us fear for
our safety. Even more than the financial losses that
can occur during a burglary, the emotional loss of
violation takes so long to recover from - if recovery is
even possible.
One victim of a burglary (who asked not to be identified) said that she felt violated knowing that a
stranger went through her things, touched items that
held precious memories for her, viewed photographs
that showed the story of her life and took valuable possessions simply because he could. Although its been
over a decade since this woman experienced this burglary, she still shudders when she thinks of it.
There are steps we can take to minimize our risk
without becoming paranoid and without forsaking
our daily routines. Many local police departments

COME TO FLORIDA!
Now Selling Valencia Cove

caution residents not to invite attention by not making your house look empty: Use outside lighting on
the same schedule as when you are home; put indoor
lights on timers when you are away; stop mail and
paper delivery for extended times or have a trusted
neighbor make the pickups for you; arrange to have
the lawn mowed and the snow shoveled if you will
be away for several days; leave a radio on at conversation level, and dont leave helpful notes on the
door such as gone shopping or on vacation, deliver
packages to... Dont leave valuables in places that
are visible through your windows. Be careful not to
advertise you are away from home via social media;
take all the pictures you want on your trip, but wait
until you are back home to post them. If you do plan to
be away for an extended period of time, contact your
local police department and fill out a security-check
request, which will include the dates you are away,
who has authorized access to your home, what cars are
in your driveway and contact information for you and
a local neighbor who has a key. They can use this to
schedule an occasional police drive-by and to know if
something appears amiss.
Lock your doors even if you will only be gone for a
few minutes; it is a good idea to keep your doors locked
even while you are at home and especially if sleeping.
Remember to lock your windows, too. Unlocked windows provide easy access: Opening a window is less
of an obstruction than breaking the glass would be. If

you leave a window open, make it less than an inch


and use a screw in the frame to prevent it from being
opened more. You can also find a variety of window
security devices at hardware stores that can lock the
windows closed or in place. Replace doorknob button locks with deadbolts; install solid doorframes and
metal doors; lock your garage door and the garage door
into your home (especially if a garage door opener is
used from your vehicle). If you have an enclosed deck
or porch, lock the outer access door as well as the entry
to your house so that you do not provide privacy for a
burglar whos breaking into your home. Keep hedges
and bushes trimmed so that they do not obscure possible broken windows from a break-in. Its also suggested
that you plant thorny bushes in front of ground-floor
windows as a deterrent to would-be intruders. Leaving
a key with a trusted neighbor is much more secure than
hiding a key under the doormat, flowerpot, or nearby
rock. Replace your locks if your key is ever lost.
Call alarm and home security companies for information on services, plans and pricing. Be aware that
many municipalities require permits for monitored
systems that automatically call 911 as well as monthly
fees. You can also install alarms on windows and doors
that will sound only in and around your home. There
are DIY video surveillance equipment packages, some
of which can be monitored by you via Wi-Fi, but make
sure your home Internet network is secured.

Joshua Bell kicks off


Benzel-Busch Concert Series
at Bergen Performing Arts Center

enzel-Busch Motor Car Corp.,


New Jerseys premierMercedesBenz, Audi, and smart dealership
and longtime supporter of the
Bergen Performing Arts Center (bergenPAC), is proud to announce the BenzelBusch Concert Series. As a supporter
of arts in the community, Benzel-Busch
understands the importance of bergenPAC to Englewood and northern New
Jersey and kicks off the series with Joshua Bells March 27 concert.
We are committed to bergenPACs
success, said J. Agresta, and look forward to this concert series. Concert
attendees will have the opportunity to

Bell will perform


with his baby,
a 1713 Huberman
Stradivarius
violin. His violin
saved many
Jewish people
during the
Holocaust.
view the latest models from BenzelBusch onsite as well as to speak with
knowledgeable representatives from the
dealership.
Since picking up the violin at the age of 4, Bell has
wowed the music world with crowd-pleasing performances that beautifully blend his flamboyant playing
style with technical genius. From his Carnegie Hall
debut in 1985, at age 17, to the Avery Fisher Prize he
was awarded at Lincoln Center in 2007, to even more
awards, Bells restless curiosity, passion, and multifaceted musical interests have earned him the rare title
of classical music superstar.His accolades include
the New York Recording Academy Honors, Grammy,
Emmy, and Oscar nominations and awards, and he
played violin for the Oscar winning score for Red Violin.
As an exclusive Sony Classical artist, Bell has recorded more than 40 CDs since his first LP recording at age
18 on the Decca Label. Bell has been embraced by a
wide television audience with appearances ranging
from The Tonight Show, Tavis Smiley, Charlie Rose,
and CBS Sunday Morning to Sesame Street. Bell has
collaborated on many projects, including his album At
Home With Friends (2009), on which he worked with
Chris Botti, Sting, Josh Groban, Kristin Chenoweth,
Regina Spektor, Anoushka Shankar, Marvin Hamlisch,
and Tiempo Libre, among others.
Many will remember the interesting experiment

where Bell performed incognito at a subway station


in Washington, D.C., in 2007 to see who would stop
to listen if they didnt know who was playing. The
story about the experiment won a Pulitzer Prize.
And he wrote a lovely childrens book about that day
entitled The Man With The Violin.
This young master was recently named the music
director of the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields,
the first person to hold this post since Sir Neville
Marriner formed the orchestra in 1958.
Bell will perform live in concert with his baby, a
1713 Huberman Stradivarius violin, which, like Bell,
has a sound like no other. His violin saved many
Jewish people during the Holocaust. The violinist
Bronislaw Huberman, created a Palestinian orchestra and obtained exit visas for Jews in Europe to play
in Palestine. Interestingly, Joshua Bells own relatives
were on the first Aliya to Palestine in the late 1800s
and they may have been in the audience, listening
to that very Stradivarius that Huberman played and
that Joshua Bell now plays.
The remaining lineup of the Benzel-Busch Concert Series will include world-class performances by
Pat Benatar (May 6), Audra McDonald (Bergen Performing Arts Center Gala Performance, May 8), Keb
Mo (June 26), and Chris Botti (August 7).
