...Waiting for Spring...

Counting down to the end of cold days we think we'll just wrap ourselves in wispy pastels, delicate florals and frothy dresses with lace and patiently wait for spring's return...

Valentino's Spring Romance

Valentino's Spring line is rich with enchantingly feminine pieces with intricate details causing me to daydream of regal situations in which I might find myself in such a lovely getup.

Valentino Spring 2011 RTW Runway

I love the intricacy of each piece and the glamor that the long sleeve adds to the pieces. The feminine embellishments and embroidery over the black simple figure hugging frock create such a elegant and vintage romantic feel. 

What lines or pieces have you daydreaming?

Have a lovely day everyone

Deal of the Week: Embroidered & Lace Blouses

These 2 embroidered blouses by Oscar de la Renta and Valentino have been in nearly every other magazine this season. Although beautiful they are very pricey- so here are 3 deals of the week for embriodered and lace blouses. I chose 3 since anything with lace is all a matter of taste.
