Neon Inspiration inside M&J Trimming
By Blerona
My favorite color this summer has been Neons! Anything and everything as long there’s some neon in there. My favorite look is wearing hints of neon in my outfit, little pops of color that are sure to catch the eye. I took a walk around M&J Trimming to find some neon embellishments and I was so suprised that I never realized all of the neon colors popping out in between the trims. I thought I would have to share these beautiful burst of COLOR trims inside of M&J Trimming with you!

Highlights from Fall 2011 Couture
By Blerona
Fall 2011 Couture as usual was out of this world. Each piece from each designer seemed to be inspired from a different world altogther or at least a different period in time and culture. Armani Prive channeled his collection from the roots of Japan, while Channel captured different periods of time. Christian Dior’s collection was colorful and theatrical under the new creative directer Bill Gaytten. Giambattista Valli’s collection was filled with bright colors, classic whites and beautiful animal prints and lastly Valentino collection was filled with peices that had a magical feel with such impecable detail.

Highlights from Spring 2012 Menswear
With Menswear Spring 2012 at an end and Fall 2011 Couture already starting. I pulled together some of my favorite collections for menswear. And of course all of these designers are a favorite of mines for women’s fashion as well. 3.1 Phillip Lim collection had interesting pieces, but the tie-dye pieces were most interesting of all. Burberry Prorsum’s collection had bright colors and ikat patterns great look for men in the Spring. Salvatore Ferragamo did an excllent job of capturing the casual beach look but with so much class. Netting defined the collection for Dolce & Gabbana. But my all time favorite for Menswear Spring 2012 was Hermes collection, every piece had a causual luxury feel.
