It's now the beautiful month of June

To celebrate June's arrival,

we've chosen our beach girl Sunny

to be the subject of the Glamorous Review this week.

The Ooh La Frou Frou Collection card line

stars eight fun, glamorous illustrated girls

where we look into their fantasy city adventures ...
don't we all need luxurious adventure in our lives?

We recently began a series of Glamorous Reviews

at the details about each of them.

In this post,
Sunny introduced us to some oh-so-pretty swimwear from

the following designers:

Swimwear Designer One:

~ Get Undrest ~

This year at Undrest you'll see pretties like

the Biarritz Maillot below ... soft as the ocean waves ...

Swimwear Designer Two from Sunny's
"Yellow Polka Dot Bikini" post was:

~ Norma Kamali ~

And this summer from Norma Kamali ...

suits such as the C Mio suit with its striking design
will steal the show ...

And Swimsuit Collection Number Three

from Sunny's "Yellow Polka Dot Bikini" post was:

~ Anthropologie ~

If you shop this summer at Anthropologie for swimwear ...

you'll find ooh-la-la pieces such as the lovely vintage-looking

Natalie One-Piece ...

Where does Sunny live?
The main playground
for all of the girls of the card line is the city.
I chose New York as their home, of course,
because of the shopping, excitement and glamour ...
there's nowhere quite like New York!

But just as Ooh La Frou Frou girl Aimee

loves and frequently travels to
Paris ...

&
Ooh La Frou Frou girl Belle

is originally from the lovely
south ...

Sunny is a city girl
originally from California.
Since Ooh La Frou Frou is all about glamorous fantasy,
whenever the winter weather is simply too much for Sunny,

she becomes a California Girl

until the weather starts behaving itself again!

I think we'd all like that lifestyle, don't you?
Her exciting apartment you'll learn about today
is her city apartment in New York.

In Sunny's "California Girl" post,

she mentioned that she loves the girls to visit her
when she's flies back to California.
These are two of the "California" things
the girls like to do together:

... shop, shop, shop on Rodeo Drive ...

... and drive around in Sunny's convertible
with wind in their hair, soaking in all of the sights ...
like the gorgeous homes of Beverly Hills ...

In the "California Girl" post,
she even showed us
how a California girl looks inconspicuous

if she finds a movie star or two sitting next to her
while doing lunch at "The Ivy" ...

she simply peers at them
ever-so-slyly
over big sunglasses ...

When back at home in New York, Sunny loves to spend
summer days at the beach and pool too ...

leisurely summer weekends at Long Beach and The Hamptons ...
too lovely, don't you think?

Are you wondering where Sunny lives in New York?

Sunny's a modern kind of girl.
I've chosen for Sunny
a glamorous co-op apartment in a luxurious hotel

with the view of Central Park:

The place she calls home is
The Mark
on the corner of 77th and Madison Avenue ...

Can't you just see Sunny going to and from this elegant entrance?
And it's so very nice that it's also home
to the world's most famous hairstylist Frederic Fekkai ...
what could be more convenient .. a salon at your doorstep!

via

As you know,
I've been creating just a quick rough illustration
of the entrances of each of the girls' apartments
for their Glamorous Reviews and here's the quick sketch of
Sunny's glamorous entrance ...

~ And here's a little treat ~

I think you'll adore this little film
brought to us by The Mark called

"Life At The Mark"

as much as I do ...

The Mark, originally built in 1927, recently went through

a very avant-garde restoration by famous French designer

Jacques Grange.

via

When you enter, you'll first be awed by the

dramatic graphic striping of the marble floors

and a dramatic black marble spiral staircase ...

via

via

You never know who you'll see in New York ...
scenes from the movie "Have You Heard About the Morgans"

starring Sarah Jessica Parker and Hugh Grant
were filmed at The Mark ...

via

The Mark has 118 rooms for guests and 42 luxurious co-op apartments.

Attention to detail is what The Mark is known for ...

the house staff is outfitted by Turnbull & Asser of London ...

via

If you were to visit Sunny at The Mark,

these are some of the things you'd enjoy:

A lovely view of Central Park ...

via

... monograms, monograms, monograms ...

via

... silky soft Frete Italian linens adorning the beds ...

via

... marble luxury in the baths ...

via

via

... not your ordinary mini-bar ...

(should we call it a maxi-bar?)

via

... The Mark Restaurant by Jean-Georges ...

via

... and a dramatic glass floor-to-ceiling wine cellar

 connecting the Restaurant to the Bar ...

via

Ahhhh, Sunny's glamorous life at The Mark.

~ But don't change your flipflops

We need the proper send-off for Sunny's beachy post,
don't you agree?

I want to keep you in Sunny's

"perpetual beach" frame-of-mind for a while

So that all of you, our darling real-life Ooh La Frou Frou girls,

can head back into your day humming a little beach tune!

Sunny introduced this link in her "California Girl" post ...

and we'd like to transport you once more
to the beachy fun world of

"Pistol Panties."

When you click on the link below,

you will instantly be sent to a beach scene ...
and you don't even have to buy airfare!

The longer you stay in the beach scene,

the more cute things you'll see pop up onto the beach

(like a little crab that skitters across the sand).

After you've enjoyed the first beach scene a bit,

take your mouse and click on the bathing suit-clad girl
standing on the far left side of the beach in front of the store.

You'll be transported to yet another fun beach scene

with more surprises!

It is in this second beach scene that you will see little

beach signs you can click on
and a fun display of their swimwear will appear.

Ready for your trip? Let's go!

And darling ... remember, we are glamour girls ...

don't forget your sunscreen!

Click here to fly to the beach:

Pistol Panties

Have a Very Glamorous and Sunny Week,

Lovelies!
