Shot16_018 Shot4_combo Telluride Inside...and Out's fashion queen, Kristin Holbrook of Two Skirts, is the model for the hip, young designer, Juliana Cho. Cho's line, Annelore, is for working women who don't give a second thought to the glass ceiling, because they have carved out their own niche. Annelore customers are smart, sexy, self-confident and resourceful. The clothes, like the women, conform on the surface – but there's a twist.

Home base for Annelore is a charming little women's shop near the Meatpacking District in New York's West Village. The business survived the blight on the neighborhood of indie shops thanks to a loyal following of trend-setting customers, attracted to investment clothes.

In Telluride, around the globe, who doesn't like a feel-good story about the triumph of the underdog, especially in times like these, when underdogs are really under the weather – and almost everybody is an underdog. That's why movies like "Breaking Away," "Rocky" and "Strictly Ballroom" get standing ovations even from the most jaundiced audience.

So Telluride, let's hear it for the girls: a local fiber artist and a local sculptor are winners at the World of Wearable Art Awards Show in New Zealand. But we will let Amy Jean Boebel and Sue Hobby tell it in their own words. See next page.

Note: Their garments were flashed on the screen at the International Media Breakfast.

After 26 hours of travel, we got to Wellington at 10 am.

The day we got in we went to the dress rehearsal for the show - it is held in a huge space and was packed with people taking advantage of the discounted tickets. The show runs two hours long without an intermission which they alert the audience to - so the bladder challenged can scoot out.  Sue, Luci, Jeanie, Helen and I bought a bottle of champagne and some cups and settled into the second row in front.

There are seven catagories of garments and our section, "Folded," includes 29 outfits. In total, there are about 165 pieces worn by 40 models

October 2 – 4, the Telluride Yoga Center, The Peaks Resort & Spa and Lorrie Denesik welcome yogini/healer/transformational teacher Karen Korona to town for an three-day intensive designed to enhance self-awareness and healing through yoga practices, including meditation.

Do you think sitting quietly for at least 10 – 20 minutes a day examining your thoughts as if they were butterflies is vintage Elizabeth Gilbert ("Eat, Pray, Love")? If so, you might want to, well, examine your thoughts.

One definition of yoga is mastering the field of attention. Meditation is the way, the payoff, of countless hours of asana (poses) originally designed to build strength and stamina to – guess – sit in meditation.
