gold mine !

I am sooooo inspired by the summer weather these days that I went looking for some gold inspiration!!! There is nothing sexier than a smokey eye, with gold accents, and a nice golden tan!!! I found some really cool glittery gold items last night while out hunting around town. Something old, something new! I can't wait to show you! But, I am missing one key element to get the look above, so as soon as I pick it up I will share with you my DIY Sexy Golden Makeover! How delicious does that cupcake look?!!!

[Yesterday my blog decided to publish itself and I wasn't quite finished with the post! So I gave it a mini makeover today... so sorry for what may seem like a double post!]

ps... I got my press passes for LA Fashion Week!!! What to wear???!!! I will be posting pics from the event so stay tuned....! Happy Sunday! xxx

my inspiration, my fashion icon : my [ama]

My Grandmother [Josephine Susini] has been the biggest fashion influence in my life. I remember playing dress up in her clothes as a child, and now as an adult, I still do! My sisters and cousins aren't too happy that she gave me all of her amazing dresses... but I think they should understand why. They have been the core foundation of my fashion existence. I love and respect them not just as clothing, but as pieces of art, pieces of history... and the love of my ama. They hang in a special corner of my closet, and sometimes on the wall as art... they inspire me, bring me joy and add a piece of history to my collection. One day I hope to pass them down to my daughter, or granddaughter... and tell the tale of the woman who molded me in so many ways...

She is pictured above [quite the risqué woman for her time - model and worked for Frank Sinatra, not to brag or anything] and beside her is my tribute photo to her. Once I dig up some more old photos I will post them just so you can see how breathtaking she was, and will always be.

Who inspires you? xxx
