Burberry

I lost my mind when I went to their site, amazing.  I seriously want all of these....

P.S. When I looked up their manufacturing a lot of it's in Europe and they had "Highlights for the year" which included reducing their carbon footprint by less employee air travel, better located Headquarters, launched a foundation, established an intern program and were the founding member of Luxury Brands Sustainability Group...go Burberry.

My Hunt Was A Success...

I really wanted a fabulous gold cuff for my collection since I posted about Oscar de la Renta's Pre Fall lovelies last Saturday and guess what, I found one.  I love when that happens!

I love this picture and I'm loving these clothes.  

Princess Grace

I've been wanting to do a post on this royal for the last few months and now seems like a fitting time since she's on the cover of Vanity Fair. What a stunning woman she was, and one who will forever be remembered as the most beautiful princess who lived out the ultimate fantasy. Making one's way from Hollywood to Monoco would be a dream for any starry eyed actress, but Grace had her name instilled in her aura and carried herself with class and style, for she was truly noble.  Her life ended far too young, may she always be remembered for her stunning beauty, incredible talent and the beautiful legacy she's left behind.

World Fashion Fall 2010

The world is full of beauty, talent and raw emotion.  Here that's translated through amazing fashion.  Spanning the globe, great design and style is showcased in almost every country with traditions deeply instilled in the roots of each artisan.  The photos below give us a quick peek into five countries latest fashion weeks.  It's more than I realized existed.  I wish to attend a show everywhere.

Eugene Funteng

Yes, I'm completely obsessed with jewelry and as I was browsing the Internet for pictures of vintage pieces I came across this stunning necklace from master french goldsmith Euguene Funteng.  Famous for his work in the second half of the nineteenth century he admired ancient techniques and was influenced by jewelry from the greeks, romans and etruscans thus creating an "archeological style".  I'm also obsessed with jewelry from these eras so of course I was drawn to his necklace, it's similar to some pieces I've sold lately.  Cleopatra is definitely going to be a look for Summer 2010 and if you have an extra 26,000 euros this one can be yours...to purchase click here.

Sportmax Spring 2010

My friends and I certainly notice that for a growing up a beach girl I have very city style.  (My friends who live in the city can't understand why I don't live there.)  I've come to realize that in the fall/winter it's city all the way, but come chirping bird season, the good Cali beach life resurrects in me and I'm ready to flow a bit.  Here are images from Sportmax's latest spring collection, they're clothes that would be a good merging of my worlds.
