Dolce and Gabbana SS 2012

These are my picks from the Dolce and Gabbana Spring/Summer 2012 show.

I have always dreamed of traveling Europe, and this collection just made me ache for a real getaway.

A kind of salute to all that is Italy. It was like Sofia Loren on a sultry afternoon with great food and red wine...

We Just Want to Have a Good Time!

I have to give credit to my husband for discovering this gem. I think the top live performance is total genius. I love the idea of the edited for television "nude" ensemble, which is nothing more than a leotard, and black cardboard. The lead singer is so sexy, she makes me wanna go on a permanent vacation! 

Viva Brazilian Girls.

An Open Road...

My family and I were lucky enough to get out of town on a family vacation last week. We road tripped to Santa Cruz, then to the Hollywood Hills, up to Big Bear, back to Hollywood and then the long haul home. The boys were really good travelers, and despite a head cold, I felt free and easy. Along the way there was so much beauty, I just had to try and capture it.

Happy St. Patty's Day Everyone! 

My dream St. Patrick's Day would include drinks and fries at The Black Sheep in Ashland, Oregon while dressed in the finest ensemble of Lanvin and a hand embellished vintage clutch! Here's hoping the road comes up to meet you...
