The combination of the dress’s color, shape, and embroidery just makes your eye water from pure joy and happiness. (yes, this happens when I see a beautiful piece of clothing-I am crazy I know). This dress is part of Zuhair Murad’s Spring/Summer 2013 cruise collection and it will look great on anyone that would wear it. Also this color is a must have for next spring and summer 2013, we have seen it on many runways.

Peau d’Âne- Elie Saab & Baccarat
In a collaboration between Elie Saab and Baccarat both houses decided to bring Peau d’Âne to life. The dress created by Elie Saab will be placed in Baccarat’s flagship store in celebration for Christmas.
Peau d’Âne is a french fairytale that starts off by showing how happy a king and a queen are in their kingdom, the people love him while his enemies are frightened by him. One day the queen gets ill and o her death bed she asks the king to marry a woman “Promise me that if, when I am gone, you find a woman wiser and more beautiful than I, you will marry her and so provide an heir for throne.” The queen knew he would never find a wiser and more beautiful woman. After sometime has passed, the kings advisors suggest that the king should marry his daughter because she is the only one wiser and more beautiful than his wife. With the princess in horror she asks for outrageous things to be made in order to stop this wedding. The princess first asks for a dress which has the color of the sky, when it was delivered it had the most beautiful blue, the blue of heaven. The princess then asks for a dress the color of the moon,it was also beautifully made. Then trying to stop the marriage the princess further asks for a dress as bright and shining as the sun. This time the king summoned a wealthy jeweler and ordered him to make a cloth of gold and diamonds. Preparing to flee the kingdom, the princess asks for the final thing, the skin of the donkey at the royal stable. It was no regular donkey because it produced gold every morning instead of dung. The king trying to please his daughter orders to skin the donkey. In order not to be recognized when fleeing the kingdom, she wears the donkey’s skin and moves to another kingdom.

Yesterday as I was trying to finish up the shopping list that my family sent me, as I entered the Armani store. I saw this handbag and loved it. I have always liked the color grey on handbags, It’s not black that you can’t wear it with brown, and its not brown that you can’t wear it with black, grey allows you to wear it with both colors. I hope you like it!

Daily Obsessions
This piece by Façonnable is not hard to find, but there is something about the buttons being on the shoulder that makes it more intriguing. It gives it the illusion of children’s clothing, is it possible that it conveys some form of innocence to the man wearing it? I believe our subconscious plays in this somehow making us assume stuff based on past experiences. I wonder if other people feel this way about this piece.

Coming across the shell handbag and the see through shoes by Lanvin, I automatically realized how much of a show stopper they are. I hope you like them as much as I do!

If you are dreading the cold and can’t wait for the summer to come back around. Then you are definitely already shopping for summer clothing. Tibi has a pair of white shorts which are a must for spring/summer 2013. This is what I call a statement piece.

Daily Obsessions
The best clothing articles are the ones that you can dress up or down whenever needed. I believe Lanvin mastered it with this dress. This dress may look more to the casual side but you can always style it the way you want. You can wear it with heels in order to attend a nice lunch or cocktail party or you can wear it with sandals or flats for a day around town.
As soon as I saw the dress I automatically imagined a woman walking into an event, she creates a buzz, knowing everyone she goes around greeting them. But her large Lady Dior handbag is always in the way.
