Adventure for the heart.

This weekend my sister and I went on a little adventure, I've been so stressed out lately I needed a little something to brighten the soul :)





                               (Top-Vintage from the Grandma's closet, Pants-ELLE, Sandals-Merona)

 "All of us are on a journey of desire. Longing, yearning, hoping, dreaming for a better day. But these dreams of ours are held in tension by the obstacles between where we are and where we hope to be. We are suspended in mid-air like a still life, a photograph. Frame by frame, we live our lives, forever stuck in the ether of the frozen now. Frame by frame we are frozen in the present between yesterday and tomorrow. Frame by frame we step forward towards the infinite unknown that only tomorrow can bring."

Nefarious: Merchant of Souls.

The point of this blog is not to just talk fashion, but to also focus on the plight of injustice globally, specifically that of trafficking. Trafficking, in all forms, both sex trafficking, and slavery is something that grieves my heart tremendously.

Here is a trailer for the movie Nefarious that is coming out now, it's an up close account of what is going on in our world.

To see if there is a showing near you of the documentary, go here.
Find the nearest location, and GO! It will surely change your world.

Emmy's & some Burberry.

While scrolling through various pictures from the Emmy's, I found some designs I absolutely loved:


1) Gwyneth Paltrow in Emilio Pucci
2) Minka Kelly in Dior
3) Kate Winslet in Elie Saab

Now for a little bit of London Fashion Week, featuring Burberry Prorsum:

60s glam....and other things :)

Well, friends, another installment for your fall wardrobe shopping....60s glam :) The 60s look is coming back and more fun than ever, from the Missoni for Target inspiration to the "mod" dress you'll be seeing in almost every store. Pair it will some leather boots, and scarf headband and you're good to go! ;)

Here are some of my favorite picks for the "mod" dress:

                                                                          (LOFT)
                                                                 (Forever 21)
Here, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley does the look effortlessly:

I love that this "look" is in for fall--it's so fun :) Happy shopping!

Also, to check out Lauren Conrad's latest and last Forbes post, go here.

And, if you would--a dear friend, and fellow fashion blogger--Melissa Burriss is in a contest, if you could click on this link and "like" the picture on facebook so she can win :) I would greatly appreciate it!

Some denim.

I spent my evening in a coffee shop downtown in my city last night--studying! Ha. What better thing to do on a Saturday night? ;) I snapped some pictures walking back to the car, sorry it's not the greatest quaility....but, I am so in love with this denim Ralph Lauren top I stole from my Mom's closet, that I had to get a picture in!




                         (Denim top-Ralph Lauren, Shoes-Merona, Jeans-Bullhead, Purse-H&M)

        And, here is some lovely inspiration found on my new current addiction, Pinterest...enjoy! :)

NYFW Summary.

Okay, here is a round-up of some of my favorite designs from NYFW. I figured instead of posting a gazillion more posts on it (especially with Milan coming up) I would just do a summarizing post. Enjoy!

                                                                             (DVF)
                                                                   (3.1 Phillip Lim)
                                                                     (Alice+Olivia)
                                                                      (Elie Tahari)
                                                                       (Ralph Lauren)
                                                              [all photos courtesy of Elle)
I will leave it at that, because if I don't my whole day will go to waste with all the designs I love. If you'd like to watch the runways yourself just scoot over to Elle and enjoy! ;)

I am excited for the white, and the cut-outs of Spring 2012...it surely will be fun to dress :-)

Hope you've got great plans for the weekend!

NYFW: Prabal Gurung

Well, I got my Missoni dress before all the madness broke out at Target. I was listening to the radio and heard stories of people fighting over items--who ever knew Missoni would be so explosive? ha. Alas, I am thrilled that I got in on time before everything sold out, blessed soul I am ;)

Well, NYFW has come to an end, and on to Milan we go. I thought I would feature some of Prabal Gurung's Spring 2012 designs today. First, I love them. Secondly, I love him. He is doing so much in the trafficking industry and I think it's awesome to see top designers using their life and their resources to fight injustice...for that he is brilliant in my book. Enjoy my favorites!




I'll be getting some style posts in this weekend, sorry for being a bit MIA with that :)

Peace. Love. Joy.

Style Spotlight: Margherita Missoni

In honor of Missoni for Target being released today, I thought I would do the style spotlight on Margherita Missoni. Margherita is the granddaughter of the Missoni founders, and heriress to the Italian fashion house.
I think she is stunning, and love the way she dresses and carries herself...sophisticated, yet creative.





Make sure to make it to your local target between now and October 22nd and shop the Missoni collection :) I for one will be at the nearest Target this evening--so excited for this collaboration!

Peace. Love. Joy.

NYFW:The Row.

The first collection I have fallen in love with for Spring 2012, is the Olsen Twin's line; The Row. They popped out some rather brilliant designs on the runway--thus adding to their already reputable genius. Here are some of my favorite looks:

Hope your week is off to a brilliant start!
