I Heart Birthdays!!!!!

	I'm needing this in my perfume collection

July is my birthday month, which I seem to be talking about a lot, as of late, but I think I'm owed the right to do so on my one, very special day of the year(although, I must say I have a lot of special days and I'm so grateful for them all). However, on this special day, the birthday, I think it's only fitting and appropriate to solicit, special gifts...I'm not asking for much, as it's not a major milestone bday, but at the top of my wishlist is the newest fragrance from Maison Martin Margiela, appropriately named Untitled and exclusively available at Saks! I just happened to walk past the display in Saks and decided to spray a little bit and oh boy, what a treat!! Light, airy, fruity, perfect for summer days and nights and a perfect transition fragrance for fall!! Multifunctional and definitely worth the money (at least in my mind). If you like citrusy, clean scents, you will love Untitled!!! Check it out!!! It's so fabulous, it doesn't even need a name!!!

Living In A Bubble!!!!!!!!

The Bubble Coat is a staple for any late Fall/early Winter wardrobe! My attention has been on an Italian classic: Moncler! This month's Harper's Bazaar features a fabulous spread(see pages 107-112) and article about this cult classic(and certainly inspiration amongst the masses of bubble/puffy coat retailers). Im in love with the feminine tailoring and slick color palettes, of these, break your bank, bubbles! As you can probably guess, I'm not so in love with the retail cost (over $1000 bucks can get you one), however I did do little research and found this site, which offers them at a steep discount and I'm sure one could keep an eye out at Bergdorf's or Saks and snag one on sale in the off season! Still not convinced and want the look for less...Try this and this!

Jimmy Choo Does Sneakers!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, so I'm not the type of girl to use the term sneakers(we from the West Coast prefer the term "tennis shoes") but going with the East coast for a minute, I must say these Sneakers are HOT!!!!! And if I were in the business of dropping $500 bucks on tennis shoes, these would quickly be part of my wardrobe! In the meantime, I will just admire from afar. Jimmy Choo, known for their very feminine, dainty heels(Auti represent) has decided to take a step in the more comfortable, athletic direction! Comfort and fashion all merged in one??? What more could a girl ask for! The summer collection launches this Summer! Check here for more details!

70's Inspired!!!!!

This spring's clothing is definitely inspired by the fashion trends of the 70's! The 70's has to be my favorite decade as far as clothing and music are concerned! Everything about it was free and flowing! Silky and satiny! Vibrant and floral! Lot's of personality! What a great time to be born! I wish I had gotten my hands on more of my mommy's fun, flirty, frocks!!! For those of you feeling the same bit of nostalgia, get your fix by slipping into some of spring's latest inspiring dresses and tops!!! From silky blouses, from Tucker to floral frills by Milly! Look for billowy, flouncy, fluttering, always flattering styles! Looks to inspire you to be nostalgic for spring!!! You can find the featured fashions at Shopbop, Nordstrom, Singer22, and Revolve Clothing!!!!

Looking forward to Spring!!!!

Splash of Prints!!!!!!!!!!!!

Abstract prints, geometric shapes, color everywhere!!!!! No, I'm not talking about a new art exhibit at the National Gallery, but I'm talking about this season's hottest dresses and flirty tops! Art and fashion have indeed found a way to coexist. Flirty, flouncy, dresses with adorable, yet defined prints that are sure to have all eyes on you! Check out the April issue of InStyle "Art of the Matter" page 234. I am really digging the following designers artistic expressions: Adam(formerly Adam & Eve), Alice & Olivia, Vince, and Mint by Jodi Arnold. Check out the dresses and tops that caught my eye. Spring is all about making a splash! Make your mark in a piece of art!!!!
