Absolutely LOVING these pastel color mixes that are so chic this season. They have almost a neon like quality because they are bright but still within the pastel color pallet. Major fashion inspiration for me!!!

Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga

Maybe because I absolutely LOVE Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga, but this video is absolutely adorable! And I think it really shows off how Lady Gaga can sing, sometime's I think her songs don't show that off as much as they could. Musical genius and I am in LOVE with Gaga's dress! :) Perfect for the video with lace flowing over her hands and the see through effect with the lighting! Wonderful :)

Sunday Shenanigans

Hello to my absolutely wonderful readers and followers! I hope you are enjoying a very lovely Sunday! Here are some pictures for your entertainment for no other reason other than fashion inspiration. I hope this holiday season you get the chance to be creative in expressing yourself. I also hope you get to make memories for your favorite dress, or those wonderful warm boots. So that every time you put them on you remember where they have taken you and what you have created in them. Maybe you will go on a horse and carriage ride in a new pair of pants that you love. Or meet the man of your dreams at a party wearing your new favorite lipstick color. Enough of my daydreaming....lets make memories and create some good times!

Fashion tip: You can purchase those jackets with unusual cuts, just make sure they accentuate your shape well and keep them in the neutral color pallet so that they can remain an unusual but timeless piece for you. Then they are worth the investment!
Love how her skirt flows out from underneath!

Daphne Guinness collaborates with MAC Cosmetics

Photo courtesy of: http://www.stylelist.com

Daphne Guinness and MAC's Senior Vice President and Creative Director, James Gager interview about the new line they have created together. Daphne's ever changing make up style is applaud-able as it is always different and she somehow always hits the mark with such perfect grace. In this interview they talk about how Daphne painted with water colors in order to develop and play with the shades she was attempting to create. They also talk about how many times it is the moments that you spend getting ready before a party that can be the very best part of your evening, which if you are like me, is so true!

Elizabeth Taylors Jewelry Collection up for Auction

We have probably all heard about the Hollywood Icons regal jewelry collection. Well it is being auctioned off at Christie's and items are being sold for over 3 times the estimated value. I'm sure the fact that they belonged to Elizabeth Taylor, America's sweetheart, has something to do with it!

This is one of the most iconic items Elizabeth Taylor was given from her late husband, Actor Richard Burton. These Emerald and Diamond jewels are Bvlgari, which was one of Elizabeth Taylor's absolute favorite jewelry designers.

Here is the Elizabeth's Iconic 33.19 carat diamond ring: (A gift from Richard Burton)
