The Valentino Garavani Virtual Museum
Valentino Garavani is expected to unveil what he is describing as a “virtual museum” this morning with a to-do at the Museum of Modern Art. (Anne Hathaway is presenting, along with Amit Sood, the creator of the Google Art Project.)
Giancarlo Giammetti, the designer’s longtime partner, gave me a preview on Friday, and let me tell you, without sounding too gushy, it’s spectacular. While a lot of designers have been opening self-aggrandizing museums of late (think of Gucci’s new digs in Florence), the Valentino Garavani Virtual Museum is a desktop application that has the look and feel of a video game, and yet presents roughly 300 of Valentino’s iconic designs in a way that is far more elegant than a physical museum could ever hope to be.

After reading this article on the NY Times blog, I am beyond excited! Have you signed up yet?
Pre-Fall 2012
As we dive into the winter months the fashion industry is two steps ahead of us as the Pre-Fall collections arrive. Tis the sale season: a good time to think about your up-coming purchases. Like most girls, were always shopping. With collections slowly arriving we can see what trends are dieing and which are becoming classic staples that you could invest in with confidence. So those electric blue pumps or that bright red coat you’ve been second guessing is still available in your size, have no fear and buy it! It may have seemed too trendy at first, but bright reds, greens, mustard’s, blues, textured sleeves, peplums and maxi length skirts are already showing a strong force in the few Pre-Fall collections on Style.com

San Francisco
I went to San Francisco this past weekend to have a little getaway from LA for a few days. My best friend lives in lower Height area and this time while visiting her I took advantage of her location. I didn’t do too much shopping but I manage to stop at a Nordstrom Rack (BTW it has the most amazing designers I’ve ever seen at a Rack. . .Lanvin, Balmain, Proenza, and more!)
Macarons from Miette
Dynamo Donuts!
I wanted to try a few baked goods! I was really disappointed in the macarons from Miette! I even tried every flavor they had to offer! However I wasn’t disappointed in Dynamo Donuts! Super friendly staff that helped me pick out the flavors. I can’t believe how delish a bacon donut could be! This is going to be a must have on all my future visits to the city.
My Outfits from the long weekend. The surprisingly warm weather made me improvise on a few looks but it eventually cooled down enough for me to wear some layers.
What’s New In My Closet
Nine West
I have been on a sole search lately! I don’t know what has gotten into me but every time I shop I make sure I check out the shoes first. I’m trying to have fun with my shoes so I can get more creative with my outfits. My favorite right now are the electric blue Calvin Kline pumps and my nine west over-the-knee boots. I wanted boots that looked similar to the Christian Louboutins without the price tag!

I wear flats almost everyday but these BP leopard loafers have been in HEAVY rotation!
Calvin Klein, Ivanka Trump, Calvin Klein
These Calvin Klein electric blue pumps are soooo comfortable! Wore them for over nine hours with no issues!
Hunter and Sam Edelman
I know it hardly rains here in LA but I’ve gotten to wear them once already and rain season isn’t here.
Trouve
Super Comfy!
Goyard croisiere, YSL easy medium tote, Balenciaga city
Even though I have joined the shoe bandwagon, I have not forgotten about my true love. . . HANDBAGS!!! The Goyard and Balenciaga bags were apart of my birthday gifts, but the YSL tote was a recent purchase last month.
Revealed: Versace for H&M
After reviewing the entire collection I must admit there are some horrid pieces (the handbags are just too ugly if you ask me). However not all is lost. There is something for everyone. The mens pink suit is pretty dope along with the all black look above. I’ve selected my favorite pieces below. The embellished full-skirt is a must have for me and who knew a fur vest could look so sexy!
