Happy July!

I hope you enjoy every second of your holiday weekend. It’s always good to remember the freedoms and privileges we are afforded because we live in America – even with it’s faults. I begin to feel that summer is in full force when the 4th comes around, and I never fail to wonder where June has gone.

Obsessed with this

A friend from work pointed this out to me. Elsa Peretti for Tiffany & Co. designed “the bottle” which is inspired by Italian women who accessorize with fresh flowers. How chic is that?

Summer of Rock

For some reason, it doesn’t bother me that Erin Wasson is completely typecast as the free-spirited hippy rocker. She wears it well.

My Early Fashions

While I was in Hot Springs this weekend, I unearthed a stash of pictures from long ago. Even at three I loved to accessorize. It was wonderful to look through these, it brought back lovely  memories and reminded me that I’ve always enjoyed dressing. Sometimes the past can lead you into your future in unexpected ways.

Beach Baby

My model-muse, Lara Stone, channels Brigitte Bardot and heads to the beach. What’s not to love – aside from the extreme jealousy of her gorgeous figure?
