Summertime Greeks

Ok, I admit it.   I am a Sex and the City fan. As a fashion lover, I find both Sarah Jessica Parker and Carrie Bradshaw irresistibly delightful. I have been inspired and influenced by the show, (and now the movies-not as good-but just as fun) and most recently by summer whites. Here is my latest compulsive creation brought on by the fever that is SATC2!

Tragedy: Losing McQueen

It's hard to believe the world will no longer have the genius of Alexander McQueen. He was one of my favorite designers. His runway shows were never disappointing, always full of high drama and amazing ideas. He was able to make the macabre beautiful, the gothic interesting, and old romance feel new and fresh. When you watch one of his runway shows you feel enlightened, awed, and inspired to make something with impact.

This show rocked my world, it got inside my subconscious and has influenced me ever since. I had forgotten all about it until recently and now that I have watched it again I realize how much I LOVE it.

Here are just a few of my McQueen favorites:
