Blog Break: Going to get Hitched!

I'm on my way to Jamaica for our wedding!! Regular posts will resume in June, once we're back from our honeymoon. Follow me on instagram to keep up with my travels and checkout my home for the next 5 days...paradise, I tell you!

Spring Boots

Not quite ready to put away your boots for spring? Check out the new trend of perforated boots: part boot, part sandal. I am personally loving them, and can totally envision a number of celebrities rocking them!

Louis Vuitton: Speedy Retrospective

Last week I had the pleasure of attending the Speedy Retrospective event at Galleria's LV. Beginning with a cocktail dubbed the "Sweet Speedy" the store had been outfitted with all the famous Speedys throughout the years.

Wall of Speedys

My favorite - leopard, of course!

What was most interesting though, was the on-site technician demonstrating the process of assembling the handles. The middle is sewn through a machine, however, the ends are pulled through by hand. Each technician is trained in only one type of strap, so the person working on Speedys would not be the same as those making straps for the Artsys.

Handles, throughout each process

Perhaps the most enjoyable part of the evening were the photos! Everyone grabbed sunnies, scarves and bags to pose with for a keepsake photo.

LaZette and I, the jetsetters!

Phillip Lim + Target

The partnerships just keep getting better and better, don't they?! Phillip Lim has signed with Target for a collection to debut September 15th. Prices will range from $20-$300. I can't wait to see what he has in store for handbags!

Check out SJP's amazing mohawk/fascinator; I'd say she nailed the theme of "Punk: Chaos to Couture." Find all the looks from last night's event here.

Ever since I purchased the Tory Burch espadrille flats, I've been living in them!! So when I saw these, I knew they would be a good investment.
