Marc Jacobs Collection Resort 2011

For resort, Marc Jacobs presented a handbag assortment that seemed to hark back to his roots–when his clothes were as sweet as cotton candy (with complementary sorbet hues to boot).

I particularly … Continue reading “Marc Jacobs Collection Resort 2011”

In keeping with its rich tradition and history, Tod’s presented their Fall 2010 collection at the Villa Nechi, a historical home to one of Milan’s most famous families. You walk into a lush garden and water feature, which is actually the pool. As you enter the house you’re taken away to the kind of splendor … Continue reading “Tod’s Fall 2010”
