Apparently I Love Roses

I love Roses

I’ve talked about how much I love roses before and I’ve recently realized that I use it A LOT in my beauty routine.  It makes me feel so feminine and sexy!  I mean, the scent of a red rose basically has super powers in my mind!  Do any of you have a scent that makes you feel wonderful?

Sorbet, Anyone?

Close UpI love a bright silk blouse.  It’s basically the easiest piece in my wardrobe to wear.  You could wear it with blue, grey, or white bottoms and it requires only a few accessories.  Ta Da!  Instant style.  This bright orange sorbet colored one is by Zoe & Sam.  I got mine on Gilt.com so keep your eyes peeled for that great deal!

The booties are another one of my wardrobe staples.  These are just cheapies I bought on Amazon about 2 years ago but I’ve worn them to death!  The studs add a fun dash of excitement to otherwise boring tan booties.  I’m very much all for mixing designer and not designer.  If you love it, wear it!

Book Review: The Little Dictionary of Fashion By Christian Dior

Picture 1

I love to read.  Especially books that ooze fashion!  I picked this one up on a whim and I’m really glad I did!  It’s exactly what it says: a dictionary of fashion terms through the eyes of Christian Dior.  He does give some good tips on how to wear items specific to your body type and you can definitely visualize his rules in his own couture line.  There are a few comical lines, though probably true, made me laugh.  One in particular, “I would not advise anyone to wear big jewels and expensive furs before marriage,” really got me giggling.  Overall this is a cute book and would make an excellent gift for any of the fashionistas in your life.  Enjoy!
