{blue satin sashes}

Completely fell in love with this photograph of Jen Gotch's whirlwind trip to Vegas -- the lacy strapless dress with blue satin sash and matching shoes are just perfect and très romantic.

Carla Bruni was said to have worn a sleeveless, knee-length Hermès dress with a 10 cm-wide marine blue ribbon for her wedding to French President Nicolas Sarkozy. {Unfortunately, since no photographers or press were allowed at the "secret" ceremony, we may never see the dress, but Carla was described as ravishing by Francois Lebel, the mayor of the 8th district of Paris, who officiated their marriage.}

Above, the image that began my love for white dresses with blue satin sashes, Sarah Humphreys, from the final issue of Blueprint {January/February 2008}.

{Thanks to Kathryn of Snippet & Ink, for sending along the last three photos.}




{vintage wooden bowls}

Love the warm, time-worn look of these vintage wooden bowls . . .

Funky hairstyles


On some websites, they call this the emo look, which is short for emotional. I guess there is also music and other lifestyles that go with the look. I'll have to check it out to see if I'm a true "emo."







I really like short, funky hairdos. I wish I could do more with my hair, but its extremely thin, and seems to look about the same no matter what I do to it. Here are some pictures of what I would like to do to my hair!

Goodnight Irene


Irene Lentz was the costume designer for MGM Studios in Hollywood for 7 years. In 1947, Irene was the first American designer to allow department stores the rights to sell her designs in exclusive boutiques. This is one such dress.

This 1950's cocktail dress by Irene is worked in black silk taffeta. I love those cascading accordian pleated ruffles. And it just fits that old song from 1950 - "Good night Irene, I'll see you in my dreams."

See this dress and more at Couture Allure Vintage Fashion .

Nicole and Joel shopping

Nicole and Joel shopping at DCMA, on April 29. Earlier in the day, the couple was seen shopping at the Diane von Furstenberg boutique.
Nicole wears a Diane von Furstenberg "Ora" printed dress accessorized with Jennifer Meyer yellow gold and diamond letter necklace and gorgeous Balenciaga gladiator wedges. In the long dress - a Diane von Furstenberg "Novesa" dress - and Louboutin pumps she looks more amazing than ever.
