NYFW Spring/Summer 2012- Zac Posen

Fashion Lovers,
Zac Posen has returned to NYFW with a BAM! His collection is simply a gorgeous. I am in lost for words to describe how amazing this collection is. From old hollywood glamour, the colors, the cuts, the fabrics, and everything in between, Posen's collection makes up any girl's dream wardrobe. The collection was mainly comprised of cocktail and evening dresses, but if feeling like a Cinderella is your dream in life, let's just say that every outfit would be a dream come true. 
I am simply in love with every single outfit presented on the runaway, and it's extraordinary how such a young designer has mastered the art of approachable couture. Get ready to see some of the most amazing dresses during the award season, as well as celebrity events around the globe. 
Bellow are some of my favorite looks from the collection, however, it's unfair for me to comment on them because in reality I loved them all. They were all glamourous, chic, or simply delicious. Enjoy! 

I just love it how he is still faithful to his muse Coco Rocha :-)

NYFW Spring/Summer 2012- Luca Luca

Pink luscious lips... and lots of fun colors. I honestly enjoyed watching Luca Luca's collection, and I can't wait for spring to come again and allow me to rock some lustrous pink lips. 
Aside from the amazing hair and make-up from the show, I loved most of the outfits showcased on the runaway. In my opinion, the outfits exuded a cool yet feminine-chic vibe that appeals to all ages. I liked the fact that variety was an important element on the show; from sheer fabrics, satins, stripes, polka-dots, vibrant colors, to black or white... there is a piece that meets all tastes and demands. 
Bellow are some of my favorite looks. 

Simple yet chic.

Casual cool, makes me miss Miami Beach. 

Some people say they're tired of rompers, but what they don't understand is that a classic cut is an easy alternative for the "little black dress effect". 

I love this white ensemble.

Hot pink looks good on every skin tone! Don't be afraid to own it!

The minute I saw this I joked with my husband that he should go get it for me.

Memories- The Power Of Scent

There is something very powerful about a person's sense of smell, and though it is not as developed as our canine or feline friends, it still plays an essential role in our existence. 
I won't go into details about how our sense of smell has defined our existence throughout the ages from a biological stand point, but on simpler terms it plays a huge part on building our memories throughout our lifetime. 
While I walked into a cosmetic store to test on some concealers, a very familiar scent transported me back to my high school days. As I walked through a particular section of the store, I kept on remembering some pretty random moments from almost 9 years ago! Once I realized this woman spraying Miracle by Lancôme all over the place, the pink bottle took me back to my room as I got ready to go to school. 
My mother is responsible for my love of perfumes, and I recall she had quite a collection. Interestingly enough, we ended up developing very similar tastes in perfumes, even at times buying the same kind to each other as gifts on such occasions as christmas. 
Here I'll be sharing some of my favorite perfumes; some of which are very old... but that's the thing... they remind me of better days. 

Dolce Vita by Dior: I remember being a little girl and spraying this on my blanket to smell like my mom when she would go out. Still love the smell. 

Miss Dior Chérie by Dior: This one is young, fresh, sensual... Love the smell. 

Poême by Lancôme: Another oldie but goodie. Very sophisticated smell. 

Miracle by Lancôme: I would spray this behind my wrists, and put some behind my ears... Everyone would compliment on my scent, including guys! 

Hypnose by Lancôme: This was my casual go to perfume. 

The Beat by Burberry: My mom got me this for christmas in 2008, and it was love at first scent. Still in love. 

Coco Mademoiselle by Chanel: Very sexy and young scent. This reminds me of sexy nights around Miami Beach. 

Classique by Jean Paul Gaultier: Well, it seems that my personal theme is luxury, but that's what I love about it. 

Very Irrésistible by Givenchy: I first received a sample of it after a big purchase and never turned back. 

Organza by Givenchy: This also reminds me of my childhood. It was a part of my mom's perfume collection. 

So, none of those perfumes are in order of favoritism. I am in love with many more fragrances, but there are too many to mention. If you haven't started yet, start creating memorable moments while wearing your favorite perfume. Going back in time is as easy as a sniff of your favorite scent. It doesn't necessarily have to be a perfume, it works with food too :-)
