Barbara Palvin

I first met Barbara Palvin working the Araks spring 2011 fashion show this past fall and was immediately taken by her. Honestly how could you not be? She is absolutely stunning withe her flawless skin and pillow lips, not to mention the sweetest disposition. I feel like she belongs on my shelf with my porcelain dolls. This post is to celebrate her rising star because you will see big things from her! She's already graced the Vogue Russia cover and will appearing in a certain spread I am not at liberty to disclose!

Laced With Glamour

It's safe to say that the holidays are upon us and with so many parties and gatherings to come, I am in need of some new clothes. At the top of my list for the moment is lace. I love how intricate and playful lace is, covering you and revealing you at the same time. Now with lace there is a fine line at both ends of the spectrum between granny, too revealing and just right! Here is some inspiration from the August issue of flair, taken by Eric Guillemain. I particularly love the green top and the burgundy dress.

I would look absolutely horrible in this yet I need it anyways!
