Bows, Ruffles, and Sparkles

I have always had somewhat of an obsession with bows, ruffles, and all things sparkly and lately it seems as though Valentino and Prada have been channeling my obsessions straight into their designs. 

Bows

I recently attended Nordstrom's evening with Valentino where they introduced their Fall collection and  this adorable bow key chain was given as the favor

Ruffles

When I saw this dress it was love at first sight. I don't think I have loved a dress nearly as much since I found my wedding dress. Its ruffles and delicate details literally make my heart swoon. I can't wait to wear it for the holiday's!

Bows & Ruffles

My little black dress was living alongside this amazing coat when I fell head over heels in love. Both of these pieces are part of Valentino's Red Collection which is nothing short of divine. This piece was modeled both as a dress and as a coat at the Valentino event and I can't wait to wear it both ways. Some tall spiked black boots can easily turn this into a fierce and feisty look, whereas tights and heels maintain a sweeter and more demure aesthetic. 

Bows & Sparkles

Talk about the dynamic duo, when I saw these I knew they were a must for my collection.  Bows and sparkles! I have actually worn these a ton since I acquired them and I have had more people stop me to tell me how adorable they are than you can imagine. Every person that has approached me has done so with a smile and that has made my day, because my shoes are little thing that have made not only me smile but they've made other smile too!
