Summer Reading

So I leave for vacation (Somewhere random in the outer banks) in less than a week! I'm looking forward to lots of beach time, which means lots of reading. Now while I'm perfectly happy indulging in my most recent obsession, Twilight, I'm almost done the series so I thought I might need another book to read. Okay, so you know you are a shopaholic when..... you go in looking for one book & and really want to buy like seven. So I settled for my top three favorites & they are all really good as far as I can tell, I would recommend reading them. They are all fashion-industry based & super informative. You can learn a lot about your own style by practicing it, but reading is so helpful too, it lets you experience so much more than what you just see on the Internet or on fashion blogs for that matter. I hope everyone is having a lovely summer & likes the books just as much as I do.

So I started off with I ♥ Your Style by Amanda Brooks
This book goes through a lot & has a lot of great pictures. It covers everything from Definable Style to Indefinable Style to Shopping.

Then I finally settled on The Little Dictionary of Fashion by Christian Dior
I thought this would be helpful always. He basically defines the most important terms in fashion & definitely a must-have if you are inspiring to have a career in the fashion industry.


So I was really proud of myself for leaving with two books, not seven, but then I was walking by a bookshelf when I saw Style A to Zoe by Rachel Zoe. Rachel Zoe is pretty much one of the reasons I ever decided I wanted a career in fashion in the first place, so that was my excuse for getting it & of course I love it. It generally covers everything in fashion & glamour & of course lots of Red Carpet Moments .


Happy reading,

Fendi Spring/Summer 2010

Who knew that Coming undone could look so incredibly good? So I have been watching a lot of spring/summer 2010 fashion shows and for some reason this one really stuck out to me. I've been thinking about it a lot. I wasn't sure I liked it at first but I really do like the whole concept. The transparent shoes to the unraveled clothing & pastels, it was all really whimsical and I've decided I love it, hope you do too.

I'm pretty sure i'm in love with these shoes, I really really want them.




I thought this bag was cute too, especially for spring/summer.



Can Karl Lagerfeld ever really send anything ugly down the runway? No of course not he's simply amazing.

Love Always,

“It is unforgiveable to do what one doesn’t love" - Christian Dior

I’m Back! So I’ve got a little distracted in the past few months, but it is now summer & I found my way back. To be perfectly honest I was a little lost & desperately needed a GPS. I was not happy what so ever, and not inspired to write about anything. But everything is good now and I have lots to share. So here is an Update!

I have some really exciting news actually. For starters….. I will be going to Rome, Pompeii, Sicily, Palermo, Catania, Calabria, & then to some places in Greece I really cannot spell next summer! This will be my first time ever going somewhere as amazing & will definitely blog often!
Also this summer (Okay, this isn’t as exciting) I will be going on vacation & to Disney World for some of it, and of course Cinderella’s castle, where the idea for this blog came about (Idk if I ever really explained that before, so that is a story to come soon).
& This is just depressing, but the fashion & design program was cut from my school so therefore I’m on a mission to find something to replace that this summer, actually I really should look into a sketching class or something, since that is most definitely not my forte.

So I hope that everyone is having a lovely summer & I’ll post back soon (Idk if that was the correct blog-analogy for I will blog again soon I promise?) & It won’t be a long random rant about my life :)

Love always,
Christina ♥
