RESORT 2010: DVF

Diane Von Furstenberg is counting on some fun in the sun! Let's face it, sometimes it's nice to take a break from all the world's bad news. The oversized bow hats are silly and girly, but I like the relaxed flirtatious vibe. Super fun brights, vintage inspired swimwear, and gorgeous cocktail dresses feel right for this cruel summer...

PINKY- Too Much for Lady Gaga??

One afternoon I had a brainstorm of sorts...to make a Pacman ghost hat with a glamorous twist! Yes, genius, I told myself...and so I set out to make this super-fun hat (with veil of course-because it just ain't a hat without veil). I like it a lot, it's supposed to be funny and unusual. Pinky made it onto Fashionablygeek.com (click here to ready their review)- but they didn't love it. What do you think?
