Monochromatic never looked so ethereal...


When I was a child, this is how I imagined Aphrodite would look...

Ohne Titel - white peach shadow, bright coral lips and a softly defined brow, one of my favorite looks so far and splendid with a camel coat or trench. I can't wait til spring, I think it's gonna have to happen for fall for me!

Oscar de la Renta Spring 2011

A very casual look, especially for Oscar de la Renta, but still sophisticated and polished...


The chicest jacket to come down the runway this season, imho... just look at that COLLAR...


Flamenco-inspired ruffles on this breath-taking strapless gown...and I love how in this shot her earrings are moving, as if she'd just finished spinning around...

Michael Kors 'Sun-Burned' Look

The cheeks at Michael Kors definitely stood out. Makeup artist Dick Page used Luminizing Satin Face Color in Orchid, Tea Rose, Petal and Carnation, all from Shiseido. I LUVED it!! Something I will try at home.

I've lost track of days...NYFW Spring 2011

Z Spoke by Zac Posen

I am crazy about this collection. And that is fitting as the designer said the inspiration for it was neurosis. No joke.

DAY THREE - NYFW SPRING 2011

Fantastic assymetrical lapel on Alexander Wang jacket.

I'm crazy about this sweater and boot combination. Super dewy skin seen here and also in Jil Stuart, (scroll down)...

Alexander Wang Spring 2011

Charlotte Ronson Spring 2011

Jil Stuart Spring 2011

These sheer print pants seem feminine, casual, stylish and sophisticated all at once. I want them in my closet...

Another assymetrical lapel jacket, and what a fantastic silver statement necklace!

Lovely crochet...much better than the doilies I remember on my mother's dining table...

The shoes on this last dress would be fun to DIY. Any suggestions how?
Vivien Tam Spring 2011

I don't usually watch the menswear, but this ensemble was so striking to me...or maybe it was the tall, dark and handsome wearing the clothes...

DAY TWO - NYFW SPRING 2011 continued

Rag and Bone Spring 2011

Jason Wu Spring 2011

Nicole Miller Spring 2011

All three of these collections had an almost ethereal feel to them. And I'm noticing many shows have a number of pieces in WHITE. So, I'm predicting a trend...
