More Jumpers!

Jump for my love!

Jumpsuits, rompers, and one-sies etc. are a huge trend this season.  They are actually great during the warmer months because they are quite comfortable and effortless.  I think this look (Image #1.) from Philip Lim's SS 09 Runway show is so simple - what I like about his jumpsuit is the fact that it can be dressed up or dressed down.  I was able to find the vintage jumpsuit below now available on ebay that gives this same feel.

Bon Voyage!

Jcrew has this luggage now that I am completely coveting.  

The hard cases are handcrafted by a British company called Globe-Trotter which has been providing strong and fashionable luggage to English Royalty and the fashionable noble and since the late 1800's.  The luggage is impressively strong due to the strength of sturdy but lightweight Vulcan Fibre.  All pieces are handmade in England and the color palette is to die for.  

The leather bags are a different story.  They are Italian in fact, and handcrafted by a company called Dell'Ga which was founded in 1800.  They too are known for their chic durability and have withstood the test of time being carried by the upper echelon of Milan society for years and years.

The Maxi Dress to Impress

I love the maxi dress. Its such an easy, chic silhouette and when wearing it one looks like they are just flowing in and out of a room! Below, is my take on the maxi dressed up - looks for work and evening rather than the beach.
