He was known for his original use of fabrics and colors and his dresses were priced into the thousands even in the 1960s. His career was very short lived.

In the 1960s if you wanted to wear something with a dramatic flare then you chose the work of Ronald Amey. He was known for his original use of fabrics and colors and his dresses were priced into the thousands even in the 1960s. His career was very short-lived. From 1959-1969 he designed under the label Burke-Amey. Joseph Burke, his partner, took care of the business side of things. In 1970s he bought out Burke and renamed the company Ronald Amey where he continued to produce his dramatic clothing until the label shuttered in 1976. His clothing was of very high quality and he incorporated many couture level details into their construction. All of his pieces were sewn in-house at his New York atelier

One of his signatures was to combine bold colors, prints and fabrics in interesting, unusual ways and this dress is a splendid example of that. The colors are bold and the mix is dramatic. The bodice and sleeves are sheer orange printed silk chiffon that is layered over the same printed coral ribbon silk that you see used for the skirt. This gives the top a very couture and quirky feel. The neckline is cut wide across the collarbones and it is anchored by a wide band of blue silk satin that is top-stitched in gold thread. This curves around the neckline and then down the front on either side of the notched front. The panel continues past the seamed waist and runs down the center of the skirt where it ends with a large diamond of the same fabric in brown. More of the blue runs around the hem and then is used again for the cuffs on each sleeve. The combination of the orange, coral and blue is spectacular . The heavy dose of all those prints, colors and patterns should not work but it does. The perfect finish is the wide fabric belt made of the same blue as the banding and this wraps around the waist where you can cinch it in and leave it simple as I did or tie it in a far more elaborate way. The exterior is in excellent condition with a note about the lining to review below.

Fully lined in a bright peach silk throughout except for the sleeves. Entirely hand finished. It closes with a front zipper and there are zippers on each cuff. The zippers stick a bit when you open and close them. There is shattering of the silk around each arm on the interior. The exterior fabrics are sound and show no wear at all. The exterior of the dress appears to have been worn very little. The dress is even better in person.

Impressive after first use! Cooling and hydrating!
Update: I used too much product and it will pill. I knew I shouldn’t reapply more, but something in this serum is soothing and cooling to my under eye skin. Immediately feels cooling and hydrating around my eyes - feels so good! This soothing feeling lingers for several minutes. I am suffering with allergies at this time and the cool metal tip is soothing and the shape contours well to my eye area. I am applying this under my eyes and to the eyelid area. The formula absorbs quickly. The pics I am including are from the first use and then approximately 10 minutes after application. The difference is SUBTLE, but this is ONE use and only 10 minutes later and I can already see that there is a change, likely temporary. Within this short amount of time, some of the puffiness has subsided and a few fine lines are diminished. I was just outside weed whacking and I’m a mess. I’m certain this will perform even better when used after washing my face and as a part of my skincare routine. I plan to use in the am and pm until the I finish the tube. What I am expecting according to Paula’s Choice information is for my fine lines to diminish and for my eyelids to be less saggy after 4 weeks of consistent use. I hope to have a follow up review with excellent results - fingers crossed - you can see my tired and puffy eyes need all the help they can get! The packaging design makes application easy due to the slender tube that is easy to hold while applying the peptide eye serum with the ergonomic, cooling metal tip. The cap has an insert to keep the product from drying out which is another positive aspect to the packaging. The formula has Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 & Tridecapeptide-1, Lysine Polypeptides, and Pseudoalteromonas Ferment Extract. It’s worth your time to do some quick research on the benefits of these ingredients to understand what they do. I don’t want to write a novel here in a review.

Excellent 30 minute depuff. Cruelty free science-backed formula. Skip the applicator gimmick.
I’ve been using this eye cream for two weeks, and the results are impressive for morning maintenance. Within 30 minutes of application, I can see the "just woke up" puffiness settle down and the skin start to tighten. It absorbs quickly and leaves a slight shine so you know exactly where you’ve applied it, but it dries down without any tacky or restrictive feeling. While I'd never heard of Paula (Paula Begoun - "cosmetic cop") before, or whatever she was choosing, I am well versed in the world of eye serum. As someone with chronic allergies and a genetic predisposition for dark circles I'm always on the lookout for a treatment that works. After researching I found that Paula’s Choice is well-known for their "Smart, Safe, Effective" philosophy, and this serum reflects that. It’s formulated with a heavy-hitting mix of peptides and antioxidants that focus on skin repair. Crucially for me, the brand is Leaping Bunny certified cruelty-free and entirely fragrance-free, which is a must for the sensitive skin around the eyes. While the brand isn’t 100% vegan (some products use animal by-products like beeswax), this product IS, is and they are transparent about their sourcing. This particular serum feels incredibly "clean" and non-irritating. The metal applicator is well-contoured for the under-eye area and feels great initially, though it does have a learning curve. It warms up quickly against the skin, and it can be hard to judge how much pressure to use when it’s pressed against your face. I’ve found the best method is to squeeze the serum onto the applicator before touching it to your skin to ensure you get the right amount. Honestly, squeezing a pea sized amount onto your finger and skipping the applicator all together may be the play. I know no cream is a "cure-all." However, for managing daily puffiness and noticeably firming the skin, this is an excellent serum that delivers on its promises without the "fluff" of unnecessary perfumes or harsh additives.

Cooling applicator feels great and the serum layers well under makeup
I’ve tried quite a few eye creams and serums over the years, and this one definitely feels more premium than most. The lightweight gel-serum texture absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave my under-eye area greasy or sticky, which is important because I usually apply concealer shortly after my skincare routine. It sits nicely under makeup and I haven’t noticed any pilling as long as I use a small amount. The cooling metal applicator is honestly one of my favorite parts of this product. I keep it in the fridge sometimes and it feels especially nice in the morning when my eyes look tired or puffy. The applicator glides smoothly around the eye area and helps depuff a bit even before the serum fully absorbs. After a couple of weeks of consistent use, I’ve noticed my under-eye area looks a little more hydrated and smoother, especially with fine lines that tend to look worse when my skin is dry. I wouldn’t call the results dramatic, but my eyes do look more refreshed overall. The fragrance-free formula is also a big plus since a lot of eye products irritate my skin or make my eyes water. The only downside for me is the price. The product works well and feels high quality, but $39 for a half ounce is definitely on the expensive side. Thankfully you only need a tiny amount each use, so the tube should last a while. Overall, I think it’s a solid eye serum if you’re looking for hydration, mild firming, and a soothing cooling application experience.

SPF ☀️ for Everyday Use 🧴🌸
Color: Tinted, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Tinted, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this SPF for almost 2 years now and I still love it! The tint adjusts beautifully to my skin tone and gives such a natural, healthy glow without looking heavy or greasy. It applies so smoothly, feels lightweight, and has a very pleasant smell. Most importantly, it doesn’t break me out at all, which is super important for my sensitive skin. I wear it almost every day and it works perfectly under makeup too. The packaging is also super convenient and easy to use, especially for everyday skincare and travel. Definitely one of the best sunscreens I’ve ever tried — worth every penny!

My favorite Sunscreen
Color: Tinted, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Tinted, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using La Roche-Posay Anthelios Ultra-Light Fluid Facial Sunscreen SPF 40 for a few years now, and it’s still one of my favorite daily sunscreens. The formula is truly lightweight and absorbs quickly without feeling greasy or heavy on the skin. It layers well under makeup and doesn’t leave a noticeable white cast, which I really appreciate. I also like that it provides reliable sun protection while still feeling comfortable enough for everyday use. Even after trying other sunscreens over the years, I keep coming back to this one because it works so well for my skin. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a lightweight, non-greasy daily sunscreen.
