Hermes: for the love of fashion and horses
If you’ve always dreamed of owning an Hermes but couldn’t bring yourself to pay the premium price for the company’s luxury scarves and leather accessories, maybe helping horses in need will spur you on to finally take the plunge.
With a gift of $500 to the National Horse Protection League donors can receive a blue Hermes scarf featuring the vintage “Ecole portugaise” pattern or a pair of ties sporting the traditional bridle and bit. Proceeds will go to protect Thoroughbreds from neglect and slaughter.

While I grew up in small-town Kentucky I’ve always been fascinated with the cosmopolitan world of high fashion. On the other hand, I love a bargain and the thrill of shopping for just the right piece.
I have a degree in English from the University of Kentucky, and since 2002 I’ve written a column for the Lexington Herald-Leader about shopping, beauty and fashion. During that time I’ve interviewed everyone from designers to boutique owners about trends and style. And I’m still forever searching for the next big sale.
