Photo Diary: Tahoe 2012

Before I jetted off to NYC, I had the best time with my cousins in Lake Tahoe where we rented out a killer cabin that literally fit all 23 of us. Despite the high pollen season, the weather was perfect, the water was still super clean and clear, and the company was more than I could ever ask for. I'm a huge family oriented type person, so it was nice to be surrounded by my cousins who were practically my bff's growing up. I miss them already!!

Mens Milan Fashion Week: Favs Part Two

Gucci // Just like Ferragamo, Frida Gianni utilized tons of colors for Gucci's SS 13 season and of course I loved it all! I need a colored suit in my life stat be it yellow, green, sky blue, or a classic red. Single breasted or double breasted. I WANT! I loved how the silhouettes of everything were slim and extremely well tailored. The no sock look? Sign me up! Frida never fails. View the full collection here.


3.1 Phillip Lim // With touches of baroque, Phillip Lim showcased a collection that was nothing short of cool and chic. With clean and modern lines, the sports wear pieces were amazeballs. The collection definitely had that effortlessly cool look, which I adored. View the full collection here.


Missoni // Who wears short shorts?! Plenty of the Missoni male models strutted their stuff in short shorts, and of course I loved it! While illustrating classic chevron prints, I enjoyed the earthy color palette of the collection which went everywhere from navy, greens, and beiges. I also really enjoyed the knits, the jackets, and those awesome suede chukka boots. View the full collection here.

Givenchy FW 2012

Givenchy will literally be the death of me. Ricardo Tisci is my savior! I love Givenchy's FW 12 ad campaign which was shot by Mert & Marcus and features Stella Tennant, Joan Smalls, Stef van der Laan, Daniela Braga, Simone Nobili, Jarrod Scott, Rodrigo Braga. Check out the video below! Is it me or does Stella look like she stole dance moves from Napoleon Dynamite?

Mens Milan Fashion Week: Favs Part One

Burberry // Is there ever a bad collection from Christopher Bailey over at Burberry? How rad are the bright neon metallics?! Ugh, gimmie gimmie gimmie. Continuing Burberrys refined, slim silhouettes, Bailey brought out a mixture of fresh pieces with a youthful touch. I love how Burberry remains true to it's classic British style, chic, a bit funky and fun, but always cool. View the full collection here.


Salvatore Ferragamo // COLOR COLOR COLOR! By far my favorite mens collection of the SS 13 season. I loved how Ferragamo's creative director, Mas­simo Gior­netti took a more lively approach this season with colors from yellow, sky blues, oranges, and whites; it was fresh, fun, and still very chic. How awesome was it that he paired the suits with sneakers that were just as colorful as the suits?! BRAVO! View the full collection here.


Vivienne Westwood // Another favorite of mine for the SS 13 season. I love how eccentric, but still tailored and current the designs are for Vivienne's mens collection. I NEED those loafer slippers in my life stat. I absolutely love the prints in the collection too, and those wide brimmed straw hats?! Flower crowns?! GENIUS. View the full collection here.
