I fell in love with Temple St. Clair‘s modern classic style for its imaginative, impeccable goldwork design. It reminds me of a freshwater pearl ring I bought from a Court Street, Cobble Hill jeweler and the orb jewel from “Men in Black” ;). *Photocredit: Gilt & Heidi Nahser (Special Projects: “Men in Black”)

I have been …

Pretty Party Dresses
Nicole Miller, Marc Jacobs, Catherine Malandrino… I’m starting to run out of steam since it’s getting late =(. Just know that if I was a real party-goer, I wouldn’t mind donning these on. Goodnite; ’til next time. My next post will be on Alexander McQueen =).
Kara Ross Flower Collection
It’s nearly impossible to choose favorites from Kara Ross‘s Flower Collection! I love them all. Great to wear with a minimalistic silk or chiffon white or ivory top e.g. think something by John Galliano or Development. *Photocredit: Kara Ross & Gilt
