GLAMOUR PHOTOGRAFY

. . . while the no. 21 collection may have been filled with fluttery fabrics and delicate lace for the work day, and elie saab, with soft draping and daytime sequins, the antonio berardi pre-fall collection is all stunning structured jackets and long, angular capes, belted coats with voluminous sleeves and carefully fitted dresses, ultra thin leather belts and powdery suede boots, juxtaposed against luxurious satin secretary blouses tied in bows . . .

. . . sometimes, a gold and white summer dress with sandals & pearls; and other times, a trench, cuffed jeans & heels -- but had never considered a denim shirt with pink wide-legged pants, or a cropped trenched with city shorts {so utterly chic!} -- the dsquared2 resort collection is filled with these perfect combinations, all intermingled with a sophisticated seventies feel, and a dash of rock and refined . . .

. . . in the very midst of the most luxuriously relaxing weekend and sundays are always the loveliest of days . . . there has been time for books and music and handwritten letters, lattes and glossy magazines and tables for two at new restaurants, cut-crystal glasses of chianti and daffodils in spring gardens, sunlight on gold leaf and fallen petals on venetian glass, and most of all, there has been time for making plans . . .

hope you're having a wonderfully lovely weekend & that it's beautiful where you are, roséline xo

. . . the wonderful thing about previewing fall collections in early spring is that they are always overflowing with inspiration for spring -- striped sweaters and pencils skirts, layers of cropped knits over crisp blouses and wide-legged trousers, bright saffron-coloured dresses, and most of all, classic trenches, belted and perfectly paired with cuffed skinny jeans and heels . . .
