Fashion Musings | From the Runway: Antonio Berardi Resort 2015

Admittedly later than most for sharing resort collections, but as a very famous saying has it, better late than never...and so, starting this series with what is possibly the most favorite of the resort 2015 collections, by Antonio Berardi.



For what may be a lifetime, have constantly had an inner battle between choosing to be super girly or serious tomboy, and it wasn't until the discovery of Chloé some few years ago realizing that both could be possible!

Berardi's late sixties and early seventies inspired pieces in this collection features a mix of laid back feminine with a nod to edginess and structured volume in vivid color schemes and rich textiles, concluding to a fine balance for all who can't seem to choose between one or the other.

Beauty Musings | Backstage Belles: Gucci F/W 2014

In lieu of the serious sexiness the Gucci woman typically oozes from her pores, on the 2014 fall winter runway she opted for something on the sweeter, sixties side.  Marianne Faithfull immediately comes to mind, with the models' perfectly messy and kept hair. The touch of whimsy played out with lots of liner, falsies on the top and bottom lashes and opened eyes, thanks to the beige liner on the waterline, this lush look is wonderfully accomplished for the runway.



The dramatic, doll like eyes has me wanting to try on a pair of lashes, though I've never been successful, am thinking that now is the time to try again.
