Will you be mine?

If your heart feels worn out like an old shoe- be sure to wear hot pink sox to cheer yourself up.  Don’t worry, you are not alone.

It might be a little obvious, but I just love these two-

Every so often I see a collection that completely renews my enthusiasm for fashion- when I saw these photos of the Dior pre-fall collection I literally let out a shreek!  I have been obsessed with 1940’s military jackets lately- we even have some at the shop right now.  But seriously- this collection incorporates everything I love- underwear, military, boots with buckles, flapper dresses, and long bias cut gowns.  I want the everything!  It’s so fancy and punk and just breathtaking.  I was only going to post a few pictures, but I couldn’t leave anything out.  Behold my fall blue moon dream…..
