Look Lust: Natasha Goldenberg @ PFW.

Ok, I have been sitting on this post for entirely too long. Can we just sit and contemplate Natasha Goldenberg's PFW Spring/Summer 2013 outfit above. I mean, really, take a moment because this outfit is worth it, period. I'd like to think of it as a chic advanced style Ninja Turtle gone mad, but the one word that it definitely is (in my mind at least) is perfection. I'm thinking this look might be inspiring my studio space, bear with me for this outfit to home decor translation as it might get a little kooky. Stay tuned, kiddies. File away as obsessed.

---------Chanel Resort 2013--------

Although I may be stuck inside cleaning up the apartment I'm staying in on this rather beautiful Saturday, I'm dreaming of spending time in a glam garden in the heart of Versailles...much like the Chanel Resort presentation this month. Little Maries complete with bold wigs and dramatic tattoos flounced around Marie Antoinette's estate showing that the queen will always live. File as garden of earthly delights.

ApartmentPhile: My Next Place Option I.

Even though I may not have a place of my own just quite yet (fingers crossed that I can afford something in the next few months)...a girl can dream! And I am definitely one who loves apartments and all their quirks- hence the new ApartmentPhile post label. So over the next few weeks, I wanted to share some of the apartment design styles that I've been throwing around (virtually of course) one of which will make it into my next tiny-ass apartment. The style featured below may be equal bits rustic, glam, chic and industrial but it makes a very big statement with just a simple color palette. File as hard chic, option one.

Lanvin Fall 2012.

For this Friday, I found no better runway show to feature than Lanvin's fall 2012 romp. And let me tell you, this was one collection to remember. Celebrating ten fabulous years, Alber Elbaz for Lanvin threw the party of all parties at his fall presentation. Guests rocked to a live band, ate a cake that if toppled, would have taken out more than a few of them, and lusted over some clothing that went from strong and bright to party perfect and back to all his classic embellishments. The fantasy he has spun for Lanvin for the past ten years has definitely been a defining moment in fashion, and going forward, it's anyone's guess where he'll take us next. File as party time.

No. 21 Fall 2012.

Since I've been neglecting my blog this past week, I wanted to start the weekend off right! No. 21 for fall is just what I needed after my very busy week at work. Now, time to have a little fun and maybe throw a little jewel in my hair for good measure. File as happy Friday!

My Elizabeth Taylor.

For jewel devotees and pop-culture followers alike this week is one to be remembered. That's right, it's Christie's week-long auction of the estate of Elizabeth Taylor, a woman whom I will always remember from a little chuckle I had with a (then-)boyfriend while standing in front of her engagement ring at the Cartier exhibition at San Francisco's De Young Museum a few years ago. He, after shockingly expressing his interest to tag along, seemed unimpressed by the size of the ring (one of the last pieces in the exhibition mind you) and felt it necessary for me to hold my finger up next to it just to prove his point. While the ring fetched somewhere around $7mill. at the auction block tonight, I still stand by my assertion that it was pretty sizable rock.

Speaking of which, you can stay tuned all week (like yours truly) and watch live on Christie's website to get in on all the auction action. Although Ms. Taylor may be gone, one things for sure- this woman had a seriously, insanely gorgeous collection of baubles. File as sparkle, sparkle.
