Kim K saying goodbye to New York
I'm such a visual person, I think that's why as a little girl I use to dream through magazines. Now magazines have been replaced by websites, at least in my world. This week I gathered these pictures from the net that gave me design, fashion and glamour inspiration.
My inspiration board this week!
Happy Sunday Dolls!

Sleek, Delicate and Inherently Feminine

Ralph Lauren Invokes 1920′s Glamour!
The designs consist of flowy crepe de chine trousers with effortless styling. Crisp white and pale pink dresses and suits flanked ostrich feather ornamented frocks all suitable for chic spring dressing.
White on white flowing effortlessly is my absolute favorite. I would pair it with the pink silk tie. Speaking of the pink tie, hard to find a picture of it. I did see it when I watched the runway show and have been obsessed with it ever since.
Lauren throws in a biker’s jacket in dusty pink leather – rendering it utterly feminine, so that a 65-year-old sophisticate could swing it without looking tawdry!
I am taking so many inspirations from his line, especially the wide leg silk pants paired with the white sweater. Absolute PERFECTION

Beyond Gorgeous
September 9th, 2011






These pictures are beyond gorgeous and I found them soothing and romantically inspiring. When softening up your decor or wardrobe a little strand of pearls, a peek of feathers or a beautiful bow goes a long way.
Just a little weekend eye candy to dream about. Hope your’s is the BEST!

My two favorite purchases this week happen to be from my favorite haunt, White House Black Market. This tier sweater was just so soft and feminine, and with the draping, it made a statement. SOLD … The wedges were a natural go to, and the shorts have just enough length to sit with comfort.

I also ordered this Maxi Skirt, it’s perfect for Arizona weather. A white silk top, paired with my wedges above and I’ll have another one of my favorite color schemes to wear, white and tan. Adore the crisp and clean lines of the two, pop on my lavender Minkoff bag, and I’ll be set for the day!

My Two Favorite Things This Week
June 11th, 2011


Victoria’s Secret is seriously one of my favorite places to shop online. Always the 80′s ROCKER Chic at heart, so I will never conform to the norm!
Edgy, sexy, and feminine are what I tend to lean towards. With that being said, ummm I am over 40, sooooo I have to be cognoscente of that when selecting outfits. And that is why I love VS. Not only can you find fun and flirty, but you can actually find garments with just enough cover-up to be appropriate!
The pants above are so comfortable to lounge in, and when I’m poolside it gives me a great option to wear with my bathing suit top. I paired it with the t-shirt {second pic}, to complete the flowy & billowy look. It works!
What are your choices for summer wear, where is your favorite place to find lounging attire?
Hope your week was FAB-ulous!

White on White …. Resort Glamour
August 23rd, 2010



Such stunning white on whites, these resort options inspire.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My mood today is slightly melancholy, reminds me of this lovely poem I once read and refer back to ever so often, by James Hayley
Petals Of The White Rose
Dreaming by the morning moon
protected in a tight cocoon
so pale in the gloom
Petals of the white rose
Stretching at the sun light smiles
reflecting on its dew drop tiles
a glow that’s seen for miles
The waking of the white rose
Delicate as the summer breeze
pearly white of royal genes
a queen within the garden green
the blooming of the white rose
Soft as love you give it when
hearts should touch a frail friend
before the gift of life might end
The message of the white rose
As we cry these tender woes
and say goodbye to them we know
they’ll fly wherever spirits go
On petals of a soft white rose.
