Oh Salvatore Ferragamo.. How do I love thee?

Let me count the ways...

1. You are consistently beautiful season after season.

2. You collections are flawlessly constructed, with clean lines, flattering color palettes, and figure-friendly silhouettes. 

3. You are never "trendy".

4. You use Italian craftsmanship.

5. Your accessories are to die for!

6. Your pieces are as perfect on a 50 year old as they are on a 20 something.

That about sums it up.

P.S. This skirt is dying to live in my closet!!!

Can I mention how much I love this season's Dsquared2 collection?  Love, love, love.  I'm also really enjoying models coming down the runway as real women, with their Starbucks (future fashion sponsor?) and their magazines.  Love the juxtaposition of the evening dresses paired with the rugged outerwear.  Looks kind of like a walk-of-shame, no?

Probably my favorite photo shoot this year!

The Controversial Naomi Campbell

Whether you love her, hate her, or think she belongs in anger management, you cannot deny that Naomi Campbell takes an amazing picture.

Wishing I was out making snow angels, rather than sitting at my desk.  Damn the corporate man!
