What I Saw: 60s Chic

I have a deep affinity/admiration for Natalia Vodianova. Like to the point where I was so sad for her when I heard she was divorcing her aristocrat husband with whom she has three kids. Aside from her personal life, I always enjoy seeing her editorials. She’s undeniably lovely in this 60s-chic photo shoot.

From Russia with Love

Black lace, expertly placed skin, ruffles and sparkles. I’m entranced by this voluptuous editorial.

Carefree

Julia Stegner is as beautiful as ever in this editorial from Harper’s Bazaar 2008. I love the juxtaposition of the black & white against the desert. Enjoy!

Attitude is Everything

I think this campaign is super cute. Not only do I love the dresses, I also like her attitude which reminds me that attitude is everything when it comes to pulling off an outfit.Max Mara Elegante ss11 (2)Max Mara Elegante ss11 (4)Max Mara Elegante ss11 (5) Max Mara Elegante ss11 (6)Max Mara Elegante ss11 (7)Max Mara Elegante ss11 (8)Max Mara Elegante ss11 (9)Max Mara Elegante ss11 (10)

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?

Plans for the Weekend

This weekend will be filled with sun, entertaining, celebrating, dinner reservations, errands and hopefully (as always) romance.
