Bare and Beautiful

I like a clean face.  Clean, moist and simple.  Maybe it is an aftershock (long felt) from wearing Chanel purple eyeshadow (the horror) from my lashes all the way to my eyebrows in the 80s when I was in  high school (yikes!  wish I had a photo but glad I do not: ) I do not wear much make up.  And even when I do wear make up, Cliff, my make up artist from Tom Ford for Met galas, etc... peers closely and intently into my face and wonders where exactly the "make up" is. 

But my bare faced 'make up' has been vindicated in the latest Celine ad campaign featuring a fetchingly beautiful and bare faced, Daria Werbowy...

so there! and be bare and beautiful, Juliana

Etoile Isabel

Okay, so I think found the perfect outfits for my morning school run.  Isabel Marant Etoile Resort 2015.  I love this collection, super wearable, comfy, chic, perfection.  Only wish I could buy them now...

love and kisses, Juliana

You Can't Always Get What You Want

I truly believe that the fashion system, as it exists now, will change and evolve.  It will change and evolve because I think people basically kind of like shopping all of the time.  One of the reasons why stores like Zara are such a big success is because you can satisfy your fashion cravings every couple of weeks with new pieces that come in.  The internet has made fashion shows literally instantly available to everyone but then you have to wait months for those pieces to finally make it into the stores and by then we have all seen them on the internet, on actresses, finally in the magazines and then the next seasons collections are about to be shown.  For better or for worse we are becoming a society of a more instant gratification.  

Like the Isabel Marant resort collection for 2015.  I could buy and wear these pieces right now.  But patience is a virtue... I suppose...

Happy to see that the Birkenstock story continues for resort 2015 - probably my husbands least favorite trend since MC Hammer pants, but I love them!

love, kisses and patience, Juliana
