I can't think of a better way to celebrate my birthday than Champagne, Ladurée Millefeuille dessert and a "little" shopping at Dior. If you follow my blog and socials, you know I'm obsessed with Dior. I don't know who had more fun - Me or Grey. She wore a jeweled harness with black polka dots and pink trim, along with pink booties. She is the belle of the ball. Grey was running around the party, tryna snag some champagne and when no-one was looking may have taken a few bites of dessert! Whose more obsessed with mirrors - Me OR Teddy? He loves looking at himself in the mirror. Teddy is donning a Yellowstone inspired outfit with a plaid shirt, overalls and boots. He won best look. A small soirée at Dior is a dream come true. AND, I don't mind the private shopping experience either! AND my bestie Dari visited from Miami to celebrate my birthday. YAY! After Dior we had Five Guys burgers and fries - SO yummy! Thank you Dior DC and Marika for hosting this lovely gathering for my birthday. This was a very special moment for me - Turning 42 ain't so bad after all - I know, you thought I was 30'ish' (wink)!
Moschino is known for its outrageous fashion designs and this SS22 collection is just that. This fabulously cheeky drop is inspired by the diner - Literally! I can't envision myself donning any of these brilliant styles, but I have so much appreciation for this amusing compilation. The enthusiastic resort 2022 collection is super fun - Exactly what fashion needs after years in and out of isolation. There other clothing and accessory styles in the lineup, so I suggest you head on over to the Moschino site for a laugh. This collection is so literal, there's no room for confusion. It is simply everything "diner". Diner-inspired jewelry, handbags, clothing and tech accessories. My favorite is the coffee pot bag. People will be like - Hmm.. Is that a coffee pot? How bizarre! I'd love to go back in time - To the diner days - When skirts and roller skates were all the rage. When drive-in diners were the perfect night out. Who doesn't love milkshakes, hamburgers and fries? This was a memorable fashion moment that pops up now and then over the decades AND this diner-chic collection is a much needed explosion of color and happiness.
DiorClub M1U pink mirrored mask sunglasses, D-Vibe Dior Tribales earrings for headphones, Fendi X Skims cropped down jacket, Fendi X Skims loose fitting pants, Dior rose des vents micro vanity case, Fendi Rockoko boots
Fendi, Dior and LV - These are a few of my favorite things! I'm all about the puffy apparel and accessories these days. It's cold AF out there, so bring on the down filled anything. This Fendi X Skims cropped down jacket (may be available at Fendi X Skims) is super cozy-chic. It is a limited edition item - LOVE THAT! I'm always impressed with myself when I snag a hard-to-get fashion item. This coat is SO warm, fashionable and super cushy. I love the 3D effect FENDI SKIMS lettering all over and the contrast interior, also donning the capsule collection print. I am a HUGE fan of athleisure and LOVE joggers. These Fendi FF track pants (available at MyTheresa) don the iconic FF motif and have a fashionable relaxed vibe. I also purchased the Fendi X Skims loose fitting pants (similar to these). Now, I just need somewhere to wear them! It's about chuffin time Dior - I've been waiting for these Dior sporty socks (available at Dior). These come in a medium height and a longer version. It's kinda hard to tell by the photo, but these sporty socks don the CHRISTIAN DIOR signature in gold-tone metallic. HAVE-TO-HAVE. I LOVE Dior woven bracelets. This Dior cuff (available at Dior) is a new take on the signature cotton arm candy. Three times wider, this navy blue cuff is a nice upgrade to the beloved handmade Dior tasseled bracelets. I have been refreshing the Louis Vuitton site everyday for weeks hoping these LV pillow booties would come back in stock. I already have these boots in khaki green and they are SO cozy. I have-to-have these pillow comfort ankle boots in beige too. The interior is lined with the Since 1854 print - The date the fashion house was founded. LOVE! I am SO lucky to have snagged this khaki Louis Vuitton padded Speedy Bandouliere 25 (no longer available at Louis Vuitton). It is the perfect winter accessory. The regenerated nylon has an embroidered monogram pattern and is padded to give a pillowy vibe. I waited two months for this chic handbag to arrived - So worth the wait.
DiorSignature A3U nude pilot sunglasses, D-Vibe Dior Tribales earrings for headphones, Dior Clair D Lune ring, Dior gray hooded anorak, DiorTravel gray cannage lambskin vanity case, Dior D-Major white ankle boots. Grey is wearing a Maxbone Arabella puffer vest in pearl peach and pink booties.
I am addicted to Dior! I have to ban myself from visiting the boutique - Someone take away my internet! I've always gravitated to one designer a season (or a few), but my Dior obsession is anything but fading some seasons later. Here are a few of my must-have Dior accessories. I have this small DiorTravel vanity case in Rose des Vents and love it - It's my most used handbag. SO, of course I had to get another color. This small DiorTravel lambskin vanity case in Gray Cannage is gorgeous and perfect for colder seasons. I'm obsessed with this color. Can't wait till Christmas! The Dior Claire D Lune ring is part of the cruise collection 2022. I'm a fan of white-gold and diamonds, so this palladium-finish metal, with white crystals CD ring is a must-have. This ring is the perfect stocking stuffer - Hint hint.. Another item for the cruise 2022 collection are these Dior D-Zenith heeled ankle boots. These boots were made for me - I messaged my Dior Angel and asked her to get these for me and she replied, 'I already put them aside for you'. She gets my style. These boots have a sporty, yet elegant vibe. These fabulous boots have an integrated sock with the 'CHRISTIAN DIOR' signature - LOVE! The sport-like design dons a gold-finish heel - This juxtaposition is perfect and clearly references the cruise collection vibe. I LOVE LOVE sunglasses. Dior quickly became my go-to sunglasses brand. These modern sunglasses styles are perfectly pink'ish' and on-trend. These DiorSignature A3U nude pilot sunglasses don the new 'CHRISTIAN DIOR PARIS' signature and an updated pilot style. Have-to-have. These DiorClub M1U sunglasses are a little out of my comfort zone and I love them. The rectangular-shaped mask has a sporty vibe. I love the pink mirrored lens combined with the light beige frame with a pink lined detail. I can't wait to wear these.. I tried on these Dior Dway slides at the boutique - They are super cozy. Unfortunately, my size wasn't available. The blue shearling is super cozy. I love a good 'these are shoes, not slippers' style. The Dior D-Vibe Tribales earrings for headphones are everything I love about fashion - Ridiculous, but fabulous AND a must-have. Compatible with AirPods and AirPods Pro, these earrings have a small gold-tone chain with a ring that you attach to our headphones. LOVE! This Dior CD navy bracelet is comprised of woven cotton and white resin pearls. Simple and a must-have. Another stocking stuffer - Hint hint.. I'm not a fan of yellow, but this buttery shade of the Dior micro Lady Dior bag is GORGEOUS. It's absolutely impractical - This bag is super tiny and you won't get much in there. Who cares! I haven't seen this bag up close, but am expecting a 'we have it' message any day now.. If you follow me, you know I'm addicted to white Dior boots. These Dior D-Major ankle boots are perfection. The military inspired boot has wool throughout (they're super cozy) and dons the 'CHRISTIAN DIOR' signature in pale pink. LOVE and HAVE-TO-HAVE!
I love my new Wellington inspired Bottega Veneta puddle ankle boots (available at Bottega Veneta). They're simple, yet interesting. The chunky sole gives you a little extra height, while the large shaft allows you to show off your socks (I'm a sock fan). These puddle boots come in a variety of colors AND there's a taller version. I'm obsessed with Moschino t-shirts. This Moschino cow-print oversized t-shirt (available at Farfetch) is cheeky and fun. This Moschino This Is Not a Toy oversized t-shirt (available at Farfetch) is the latest version of the signature teddy bear print. Most of my tees are oversized Moschino t-shirts. They're high-quality and super comfy. I have been lusting over this Dior anorak (available at Dior) for some time. I have a brilliant collection of Dior boots and handbags, but this will be my first piece of Dior clothing - I'M SO EXCITED! This oversized, hooded anorak dons the signature Dior oblique motif, side pockets and a front pocket with a flap showcasing a CRISTIAN DIOR signature. Last Christmas, I received the Louis Vuitton pillow comfort ankle boots. This year, I asked for the LV pillow comfort mules (available at Louis Vuitton). Similar to the boots, these mules are comprised of monogram nylon with a soft down filling. I'm counting down the days till Christmas! I have wanted a pair of LV Archlight sneakers since they debuted. Finally, this LV sneaker is available in a color scheme/print that suits my style. These Louis Vuitton Archlight sneakers (available at Louis Vuitton) are black and white with the new graphic Louis Vuitton signature. LOVE!
The Raf Simons Teenage Dreams knitted jumper (available at Farfetch), has been on my wishlist for months - I'm just waiting for it to go on sale. I love this shade of pink. The boxy silhouette and oversized sleeves are perfect for layering over a white shirt. Hopefully it goes on sale before it sells out. I am obsessed with this look. The Dolce & Gabbana logo-printed top and the Dolce & Gabbana polka-dot cotton mini skirt (both available at MyTheresa and Farfetch). It's the perfect party outfit. The short, polka-dot skirt pairs perfectly with the sleeveless top. The logo-printed top has print on the back as well. A list of locations for the DG Tour, along with a SOLD OUT stamp. These two are at the top of my must-have list. I told myself no more sunglasses, BUT these Gucci oversized embellished pilot sunglasses (available at Revolve) are amazing. I love the pilot style and pastel colors. These would match the Raf Simons Teenage Dreams knitted jumper perfectly. I already have these Bottega Veneta stretch 90 mm mesh-panel sandals (available at Farfetch). I'm a little obsessed with Bottega Veneta this season and have been cheating like mad on Dior! These shoes are surprisingly comfortable. I purchased them for an event that never happened, SO they're still in the box waiting for the perfect moment to shine! Another Bottega Veneta purchase - The BV puddle rubber clog sandals (available at Bottega Veneta). These are just too much fun. They're kinda like designer Crocs! They're comfy and this shade of salmon- pink is gorgeous against sun-kissed skin. Side note - They run large, so size down.
This Dior multicolor Couer En Fleurs embroidery small book tote is EXQUISITE! I purchased it in February AND was saving it for Summer vacation - The temptation to open the box was fierce. Since I'm not going anywhere this Summer (travel restrictions), I decided to pull the ribbon and open the beloved white Dior box. This is my favorite Dior book tote so far. The detail is brilliant and I love that it says Christian Dior along the handle. Each side dons different details and the bottom is absolute Dior perfection. I can't wait to travel somewhere fabulous, so I can show off my gorgeous Dior Couer En Fleurs tote.
Like most fashionistas, I'm obsessed with Bottega Veneta this season. Uh oh Dior (my long time designer obsession), I think I might have to push the pause button for a little while. The Bottega Veneta shell shoulder bag was the first to catch my eye. It comes in three sizes and a variety of colors. The cutout detailing gives this bag a modern look. I always go with the most unique bag in the collection, but don't seem to get appreciation from the fashion crowd, SO I'm gonna keep this one in mind and opt for a another style.. But first, lets talk about the shoes. I want all of them. The Bottega Veneta raffia sandals are GORGEOUS! The Intrecciato design is synonymous with the brand. Not sure if these would be comfy, but who cares. I don't recall Bottega Veneta being on everyones wish list in a while, but whomever took over the design team is WOWING fashion lovers. These Bottege Veneta almond pumps and mesh-panel sandals are both stretchy and unique. The mesh-panel sandals are on the top of my must-have list. The Bottega Veneta Intrecciato tote has an oversized slouchy body that's easy to pack and great for travel or running errands. BTW - Intrecciato is a unique Italian technique of weaving leather. These Bottega Veneta slingback strap slippers are a MUST-HAVE. They're futuristic and fun. I love this shade of pink. These casual shoes are perfect for summer. After much consideration, the Bottega Veneta padded cassette shoulder bag made it to the top of my handbag list. These weaved bags are on trend and available in a variety of colors. I like the neutral shades and the spearmint blue (got my eye on that one). The Bottega Veneta padded chain cassette shoulder bag is similar to the previous bag, but dons a thick chain in either silver or gold - depending on the color of the bag. This is the BV bag taking over Instagram. Another take on the classic Intrecciato weave - These Bottega Veneta mules are a statement. The bold platform mules are made from ivory nappa leather. LOVE! Last on the list - the Bottega Veneta fringe crisscross leather clutch is a show stopper. Anything fringe walks nicely and attracts attention. This clutch is unique and a nice addition to a fashionistas collection. Get my obsession? The BV collection is amazing! Fingers crossed that I'll wake up one day with a Bottega Veneta box calling my name..
