Fashion Musings | From the Runway: Delpozo S/S 2014

First thoughts when thinking of gypsies include fluorescent-colored fabrics, millions of gold bangles and going barefoot, but after being inspired by Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot's Gypsy with a Tambourine painting and glass cathedral windows, Josep Font's spring collection reveals perhaps another kind of gypsy, in the form of sheer draping, delicate pleating, effortlessly crafted sweetheart necklines, voluminous skirts and suddenly swept off my feet by such an elegant and ladylike take on la bohème.



Can't quite get enough of the drama and the romance and the oozing easiness that moves in each piece. Another thing to love about this collection (as if there aren't enough reasons) - various options for the feminine and also for the tomboy - have been known to switch between the two like day and night! The sexiest sheer button down, carefully crafted high-waisted shorts and perfectly knit sweaters...so much to adore.

His & Hers | Anniversary Gift Guide: Rosie's Wish List

Second to last event of mine and M's "holiday season" is our anniversary, and I'm brimming and glowing with love as the date grows closer. Personal preference for anniversary gifts are something that both individuals can enjoy as a couple, rather than gifts for each other. Last year was a black blanket to keep us warm while together and this year, due to fear that M will stumble upon this post, will keep private until the perfect moment comes along.

Here are some rather perfect gift choices for a couple's anniversary, all of which are very close to mine and M's heart!


Annual membership for 2 to The Huntington Library. Can't make it any more obvious how much I love this place! We love lighting candles for as long as we're home, this Ponderosa scent from Voluspa's Vermeil Collection reminds me of M. Our very first date, ever, was a traditional dinner and a movies and we've since upgraded to a more luxe experience at iPic Theaters. We can't seem to go back to regular places!

Sometimes, M and I like to enjoy dinner and TV and these tray tables are perfect for just that! Also perfectly multi-functional, could be used as a side table, a bar tray and more. Lastly, M and I are trying to be better about capturing life's most precious moments. This fabulously gold lomography camera could just be that motivation for us to take more photographs.

Eternally,
Rosie

Style Musings | Décor Desires: Mad For Manhattan

I am mad for Adrienne Vittadini's, fashion designer, Manhattan apartment! So serene, so calm, this living space, which she bought with her husband and business partner, Gianluigi Vittadini in 1986, is everything an Upper East Side apartment is thought to be. Doses of animal print are seen here and there, in the living room and the bedroom, on paired ottomans and an abundance of art and small sculptures flood the walls and counters of the space.



I have a thing for chandeliers, especially in dining areas, and the one hanging above Vittadini's dining table, with its blue and gold accents, is so charming! On top of the glamour in this sophisticated apartment, it overlooks Central park - oh the glamour, the romance, the true serenity of it all.
