I recently watched the documentary film, Ultrasuede: In Search of Halston, directed by Whitney Sudler-Smith, and was mesmerized and captivated by every single minute of it. I mean, wow, the documentary was done extremely well but also, Halston was larger than life with his entourage of models accompanying him everywhere he went… not to mention …
I randomly stumbled upon this stunning Fall collection by Ellery a few months ago and fell instantly in love. I was unfamiliar with the brand so I saved the link which has been residing on my desktop ever since. I open it at least once a week, forgetting why it’s sitting on my desktop and …

British designers Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig of Marchesa, consistently create the most gorgeous and feminine, yet bold dresses and wedding gowns of any designer out there. I just love their aesthetic and their Fall Ready to Wear 2012 collection is no exception. Inspired by “late-nineteenth-century French painter William-Adolphe Bouguereau’s A Soul Brought to Heaven, …

The late designer Alexander McQueen‘s collections are always more of a walking art exhibit to me than ready to wear or even couture fashion. Though the dress above, sans all the extras, is pure perfection! His creativity is beyond amazing, but not so much wearable for the everyday woman. The latest collection for the brand …
“The camellia, a flower of stark simplicity and pure white, could not fail to charm Mademoiselle Chanel. It formed part of her private world: [in her apartment] scattered on Coromandel screens, it also appears in chandeliers or in bouquets with rock-crystal. Prior to being the flower associated with demimondaines or dandies, the camellia symbolized purity …
I am IN LOVE with the Spring 2012 Couture collection from Elie Saab. Dripping iced pastels, florals and beadwork symmetrically embroidered over layers of sheer fabric with a nod to 50’s and 60’s silhouettes and femininity, with a hint of moxie. It’s simply stunning. Even the wedding gown {above}, though almost out of place amongst …

Very few of us can afford an Hermès Birkin Bag, or any Hermes bag for that matter …and some, even if they could, wouldn’t spend their savings on one. But there are a few adorable little Hermes items that are attainable. And even if they are ridiculously useless, the Hermes name just exudes a luxurious …
Wow. Wow. …um, wow. I’m kind of speechless really. I’m so desperately in love with these pieces I cannot even handle it. Wow. If I could DIY them this perfectly, I would …& I believe I possess the skills {because I worked with a leather designer for 7 years} but I don’t believe I have …

The husband brought Tom Ford’s film debut A Single Man DVD home for me months ago and I have yet to watch it. I vow to make time this weekend to do so. If you’re unaware, I’m in love with everything this man creates {since 1995 really} so I’m fairly sure the movie will be …
I first was introduced to Tom Ford in 1995 when he took over the women’s ready-to-wear division at Gucci. Those slick satin blouses and velvet pants stuck out to me in every magazine I picked up. I loved everything about it. I also happened to be in fashion school at the time {or in school …
I really REALLY want this Hermes iphone case. Like really want it. I think it’s because, besides their cute leather key chains and {some select} scarves, it’s the only thing that’s affordable. And really, I wouldn’t say that $315 is necessarily affordable for an iphone case, a key chain OR a scarf, but for Hermes, …
