A Closer Look: Valentino Spring Couture

This work of art from the Valentino Spring Couture Runway in Paris is like a living dream. My heart absolutely melts every time I take in all the lace and tulle details of the gown. Valentino, I'm irrevocably and undeniably yours.

Holiday Wear: Elie Saab Evening Wear

The holidays call for holiday parties which call for party dresses! Over the weekend, I successfully found a gorgeous holiday ball gown for a ball I'm attending in late December. I adore the dress I found but I can't help wishing I was going to be wearing a little runway couture. Hey, a girl can dream!

How glam are these looks from the Elie Saab Fall 2012 Couture Runway show? If I could, I would absolutely be wearing one of the gowns to a fabulously fancy holiday party!

Backstage Pass: Valentino

I am dreaming of being transported back in time to the rule of Marie Antoinette (the inspiration for this collection) so I can grace a ball in one of these exquisite floral, lace, and organza gowns. What do you think? Should we go time-traveling?
