I have seen this piece for quite some time but it has resinated with me. So I thought I should share it! It is a necklace by Rachel Zoe, what I loved about it the most is its functionality. I love when you have a piece of clothing or jewelry and you can alternate it into different ways, it always gives it an advantage in the purchaser’s point of view. You can tie it into a knot, you can use it as a back necklace, wrap it around your neck… infinite amount of options.

This is one of my favorite McQueen outfits to walk the runway. As always the combination of McQueen’s art and fashion creates this different dimension where savage beauty becomes the most looked at and sought after.  This piece is such a statement on both the art and fashion levels.

There is something about a bright colored handbag that makes a woman more interesting, or daring if I may say. You have the typical colors black,brown, and grey but when someone with a bright colored handbag walks by it translates differently. I came across this orange bag by Givenchy.

A few weeks ago I came across this piece from Tiffany & Co. I personally loved the design of it. How the bracelet goes with the arm and embraces the wrist joint and puts the main focus on it. Also what I loved about it is how it can go from casual to formal.

I just came across these Zanotti heels and I could just imagine a woman walking into a room full of people with these heels and everyones eyes will automatically be directed to her heels. Not only is the shape of the heel unconventional but also the combination of colors makes it more alluring.

When looking at fashion shoots, I look for the ones that will give you an aha moment the moment where you want to cherish that ad and realize its one of the prettiest things you would ever see. Well I do not know if everyone gets those moments, or its just me the fashion addict. But here are two examples of these moments: One is by Chanel the other is by Dior.

Whenever I see an Oscar De La Renta outfit, whether it is a dress or just a plain shirt. It gives me the feeling that the person wearing the outfit is ready to tango. I relate it to the tango because the designs translate the feeling of this sexy, elegant, powerful woman (which are all characteristics of a woman dancing the tango).

Today I came across the Tom Binns current and Spring 2013 collection, which I found really interesting! Here are my favorite pieces out of the collection.

I came across this dress by Roberto Cavalli today and I loved it because of the material that is used in creating this dress. Visually you assume the fabric is a leopard print but as you get closer it’s lines of brown and honey brown combined to give this illusion.
