Making My Television Debut on Good Morning America

I’ve always been a firm believer that one should never wake up before 11:00 a.m. unless they are going to be on Good Morning America.  Today, I actually got to practice what I preach when I appeared on GMA’s Cash in Your Closet segment with Tracy DiNunzio, Founder and CEO of Tradesy, an online retailer where you can earn top dollar for your gently used designer goods currently crowding your closet.  They also offer free shipping and hassle-free returns on their designer deals.

During the segment, Tracy appraised the resale value of two of my designer accessories.  My Just Cavalli purse was appraised for $110 and my Michael Kors scarf valued at $30.  It’s amazing how much extra cash could be just sitting in your closet.  I’ve never been much of a morning person, but being on Good Morning America made rising well before dawn completely worth it.  Click here to see the full segment.  Many congratulations to my new friend, Tracy DiNunzio, on her fabulous website and equally fabulous GMA debut!

Nothing like getting your accessories appraised on national television

A Fall of Primetime Secrets and Lies

If the season finale and marathon of Pretty Little Liars tonight isn’t enough to get your dark television drama fix, secrets, lies, and stolen identities will be taking over primetime this fall.  Here is the scoop on four fall shows that will keep you on the edge of your seat:

Revenge: (Premieres Wed. Sept. 21st 10/9c on ABC) Is a modern version of The Count of Monte Cristo with a female protagonist. It tells the story of Emily Thorne, a newcomer to the Hamptons who isn’t new to the area at all. Something horrible happened long ago that ruined her family and she is back for revenge.  Socialites never forgive and forget.

The Secret Circle: (Premieres Thurs. Sept. 15th 9/8c on The CW) Vampires and werewolves are out and witches are in. To my delight, Halloween is coming early this year with The Secret Circle.  Cassie Blake is a seemingly normal teenage girl who finds herself orphaned after a fire.  After moving in with her grandmother, she discovers she was meant to complete a mysterious circle of powerful witches. But, dark magic may be at play when she begins to speculate that the fire may not have been an accident.

Ringer: (Premieres Tues. Sept. 13th 9/8c on The CW) Taking place in New York, this seems a lot like an adult Gossip Girl. Sarah Michelle Gellar stars as a woman on the run who after briefly reuniting with her identical twin sister assumes her identity when her seemingly perfect sister disappears overboard on a boat trip. However, with all of the secrets and lies the deceptively flawless Siobhan was hiding she is no safer as her sister.

The Lying Game: (Premiered Mon. Aug. 15th 9/8c on ABC Family) Twins and deception seem be a theme this television season. Emma and Sutton are two twins separated at birth that switch lives in order of pursue the mysterious identity of their birth mother, but there are many other secrets along the way. With Pretty Little Liars coming to an end it’s great that there is another Sara Shepard novel coming to the small screen.
