Favorite Collections!!

     After spending several hours a few minutes on vogue.com looking at the latest Fall 2011, Spring 2012 and Resort 2012 designer collections, I finally narrowed down my favorites to 20 or so (considering there were a couple hundred collections, I consider this a big accomplishment!).  My next few posts will showcase my favorites.  

First up: Valentino Couture, Fall 2011

Very feminine yet very classic at the same time - the headpieces remind me of a Renaissance princess..so gorgeous!!


Next: Jonathan Saunders, ready-to-wear, Spring 2012

The silhouettes are very vintage looking, very colorful and very fun- love it!!



And.....Christian Dior Resort 2012

Who says going to the beach can't be a black tie affair?  Christian Dior thinks that it can!  The results?  Perfection!!

Improv everywhere thinks it can too!

Enjoy!!

color obsession: green

I love green!  I mean, I love pink more, but green is beautiful too.  I can't wear green (let's just say that color makes me look like I'm about to pass out, or throw up or die or a combination of the three), at least not anywhere near my face, which rules out jewelry, tops, dresses, eye shadow and hats.  But it doesn't rule out interior design, thankfully!  So, here are my favorite green interior design ideas.

But still, who doesn't just love pink?

Happy birthday!!

Hello!!  Well, today is this little blog's 2nd birthday and since I completely ignored forgot it's first, I'm going to make a big deal out of this one!  So, without further ado, some of my favorite birthday photos.  I was going to share some pictures from my past birthdays, but since most of my birthday celebrations take place in the morning, and since I went back and looked at some of the photos...and since this is a blog about style, I changed my mind.  So here are some birthday pictures of other people!

 Here are the things you need to have a ravishing birthday party:

Cake

Or prunes, if you're a health nut!

A smashing party outfit

Decorations, favors and games

and dancing

These are the keys to a great party (presents don't hurt, either)!  So, Happy Birthday Vintage Rose Girl!  Here's to another great year :)

the girl with the glasses....

I recently fell in love with vintage glasses and I wanted to share some of my favorite styles - here ya go!  Enjoy :)

See?  A girl can still look smashing, even with her glasses on!

I Love Lucy!

Happy 100th Birthday Lucy!!
