Paris Fashion Week

Spring/Summer 2014

 

 

 

Paris is almost ALWAYS my favorite stop on the fashion bus every season. Not because it’s beautiful and I would LOVE to live there one day….it’s because there’s usually a slight glimmer of hope a Texas rodeo will be presented down the runway! Paris is such a happy place!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Did I say a Texas rodeo? What I meant to say was sexy bandits!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Or outlaws….

One thing is for sure…if  this means the summer of 2014 will be filled with me wearing a scarf/bandana and leather fringe boots…I’m totally game!

 

 



MFW: Versace


Milan Fashion Week

Spring/Summer

 

 

 

Once in awhile there comes a collection that has everything I’ve ever wanted and needed. Sometimes it happens several times during the fashion season but other times, it happens once. I think Versace is the one. So, unless you’re a new visiting stylish sweet, you know what happens when I love everything…….

Versace Spring/Summer 2014 Ready to Wear Collection

Straight from Milan Fashion Week

 

 

 

 

 

 

And now……my ULTIMATE Versace faves!!

 

 

If there’s ONE thing I want to own RIGHT NOW, it’s this leather jacket!

The Details: OH EM GEE!

If there’s one thing I want to own

Does anyone have a direct line to Donatella Versace? I need her to make a special order for a stylish chick with curves! A body chain that can fit over real big boobs, pants that fit a booty, and a belt that compliments these curves. I’d ask for shoes but that might be a bit much…plus, I’m an average size 8 sooo…good to go in the shoe department!

Love Everything!

Want It All!

Can I Have It?

 

I know, I know…I say that a lot but this is fashion season and I’m bound to love everything something!

MFW: Ports 1961


Milan Fashion Week

Spring/Summer 2014

 

 

 Totally my first time looking at a Ports show…gotta say, it’s different. Different in a good way. It’s not your average high end designer look, it’s a walk on a different street.

I definitely want to walk on this street! Give me mauve/rose/dusty pink and I’m your best friend FOR LIFE!

Hello Ports 1961, nice to meet you.

Milan Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2014: Luisa Beccaria


Milan Fashion Week

Spring/Summer 2014

 

 

 

 

 

When the first look turned the corner, my immediate thoughts were…sheer stripes and uniform fit….again. Boy was I ever wrong! Quickly, I was reminded of the romantic dreamscape that is Luisa Beccaria. Her ever enchanting gowns that wisp themselves in the wind were front and center.

 

 

 

 

 

 

See how dreamy the collection is…

Spring/Summer 2014

 

 

Dan and Dean Caten ALWAYS seem to put a smile on my face. (I say that as if I know them personally lol in my dreams and imaginary life, I wake up to them dressing me and shoving me out the door!) Their collections give you visuals like you’re in a movie with them so I couldn’t resist letting you guys see the whole show!

 

 

 

See my faves after the jump…

 

 

 

Cleavage and cat eyes galore!

Loving it!

Anyone else feeling like a pina colada on the beach is absolutely necessary right now?

 

 

 

 

 

LFW: Adidas by Stella McCartney

The first time I noticed Stella McCartney made workout clothes…I was watching tennis. Of all things not related to fashion unless of course you’re the trail blazing fashionistas aka The Williams Sisters. As I watched Caroline Wozniacki play, I noticed how cute her outfit was…it was sheer and colorful and it looked “wearable.” If a former world number one can play tennis in it, it HAS to be good!

 

 

 

 

That was three or four years ago, fast forward to now and the design partnership continues….

Milan Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2014: Gucci


Time to hit the streets of Italy, Milan to be exact. We’re on week number three (I think) of the spring and summer 2014 fashion season. So far we’ve vicariously travelled to New York and London all without baggage fees! Now that we’re in Milan aka the fashion capital of the world…it’s time to see what’s in store around the cobbled corners. Timeless favorite of label lovers everywhere…Gucci.

London Fashion Week Spring Summer 2014: House of Holland

London Fashion Week

Spring/Summer 2014

 

 

Love.

Love.

Love.

 

The set was bright and airy which totally made me feel like an upbeat spring morning (in the hood.) Kind of thinking that’s where Henry Holland wanted us to go with his Spring/Summer 2014 collection. Loose fitting dresses, lace on pants, dark lips and floral tattoos on trench coats.

 If this is what a “sweatsuit” or “jogging suit” will look like next year….count me in!

So young, fresh, and new! I wanna be a House of Holland Homegirl!

When the wet-haired models didn’t have their flowing tresses free, House of Holland gave some a baseball hat! Um, yes please! It’s always my inner tomboy wanting to wear lace outside to play in grass and that was the icing on top of a sweet confetti filled cake!
