Looking into the future of 2012 here are some of my favorite accessories and outfits from the Resort Collections of Miu Miu, Prada and Dior. Bringing back more lace and glitter Prada and Miu Miu have some amazing jewelry that I am in LOVE with (hence the bows and LOTS of sparkle). Dior has their gorgeous dresses as usual with large bows, dropped waistlines and flowing silhouettes with a touch of glitter and glam.

Gotta love all things shiny and sparkly! I know I do! Keep it Golden.
I have been following Alana Hale's collections from the very beginning when she began selling her line at my good friend Angie's showroom La Maison De Fashion on Melrose. She always has chic pieces that are great for mixing up a day wardrobe into night. Always feminine and sophisticated in style you have to check out her latest Spring 2012collection!
There were some interesting installations at the show as well including my friend Mike Vensel who has very simple designs but always classic.

I absolutely LOVED Michelle Laine's jewelry in her installation. Great pieces to bling up an ordinary outfit into something glamorous! It was very crowded and hard to get all the photos I wanted but check out more of her pieces on her website. Gorgeous!
In my spare time I'm a little infatuated with shopping for antique and vintage pieces. It can be jewelry, clothing, furniture, trinkets and knickknacks. Doesn't really matter I LOVE the nostalgic feeling I get when I bring a piece home with me.
Well I came across this Chilean born New York artist/designer who had a brilliant idea to turn vintage watches into nothing more than a vintage watch. I'll explain...Sebastian Errazuriz feels it isn't necessary to tell time on a watch anymore due to more advanced technology, aka. cell phones, ipods, cars, etc. Therefore, Sebastian purchased a collection of vintage watches and purposely removed all of the minute and hour hands from the watches leaving just the second hands to simply show 'the passing of time'. Pretty sweet idea if you ask me, especially since I own multiple watches and NEVER use them to tell time!
You can snag one of these nifty watches here or just admire them from the pics I've posted since they are a little on the pricey side (plus there's tons of other fun pieces you can browse through on the website above!). Keep it Golden!
