!!!!!

After graduation some girlfriends and I went to Hong Kong for a couple weeks to celebrate. A few days into the vacay, I emailed my parents and exclaimed that we were having THE TIME OF OUR LIVES!!!!!!! Meanwhile my noisy friends were looking over my shoulder as I emailed a personal message…. They were all, stop yelling at your parents. Haha, I seriously didn’t know that all caps was yelling! Obviously they wouldn’t shut up about it after that.

I’ve also been busted for my excessive use of exclamation points, which gives off the impression of being either really dramatic or super hyper. Maybe both are slightly accurate. ;-) However, something worthy of shouting and exclamation points are these detail shots from the Dolce and Gabbana S/S 2012 collection. AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! The vibe is very reminiscent of Sophia Loren, old Hollywood glamour with a twist… did you notice the pasta shaped earrings?  So fun!  What do you think?

golden Gucci & timeless Alberta Ferretti

True to its roots as one of the most widely recognized fashion houses and celebrating a ninety year legacy, Gucci’s signature style shines through with a dedicated focus.  Adding a new flair to looks influenced by the twenties, the eveningwear in particular stands out as a collection highlight and moves the line into new territory. Even with a few misses, this season offers an authentic Gucci vision and is pretty irresistible.

The Alberta Ferretti show was spectacular and full of absolutely stunning and completely timeless pieces. Wearable and relevent for almost any age, I was most notibly fond of the "urban jungle" prints, sheer cutouts, and color scheme that echos a joyful rebirth. Besides, isn't that what spring is all about anyway? Let's start over and escape our winter blues with this lovely attire.
