REST IN PEACE, ALEXANDER MCQUEEN

How cute are these?

P.S. I just got two new headbands: both bows, one black with white polka dots, the other black with white stripes.. I'm obsessed. My black over-the-knee boots just shipped today :)

P.P.S. If you're wondering why this post is so random, I was looking for ideas for my boyfriend's birthday and I came across these when I got sidetracked.

Inspiration: Anja Rubik

I absolutely LOVE this editorial. The all-white garments, the hay contrasting the soft materials, the adorable little lamb, and Anja looking incredible. These images totally capture my favorite kind of look. What do you think?

What is everyone else loving for Spring trends?

first post!

After putting it off for a really long time because I couldn't think of a cool enough name, I've finally created a blog!

I'm going to be posting my favorite looks, my outfits, and other cool stuff I find on the internet (basically just like every other fashion blog out there) but I hope you'll find mine interesting enough to stick around and follow me :)

I've always been inclined to a girly style-lots of light colors with feminine touches like bows and lace-and so much of the spring Couture this year is exactly what I like!

Beginning with Chanel, even just the iridescent bows on the heads of the models made me smile. I really love how many times over Lagerfeld has reinterpreted Coco's legendary two-piece suit, keeping it classic, yet inventing it all over again with his incredible vision. My favorite looks:

Armani Prive has been another of my favorites this season, also incorporating iridescent details. The shapes of the gowns are incredibly striking and create a lasting impression. Some more of my favorites:

Givenchy worked with a darker mood for both the models and the clothing this season. While the collection features some darker hues and bold use of materials, it still radiates spring. The feathered accents and extraordinary use of structured ruffles made Givenchy a standout as well. Again, some favorite looks:

I'm currently stuck in a rut where I have absolutely no idea what to wear, so outfits will come with the next post :)
