Love the necklace of pearls and roses.
XXX wapa ;)
Lovely necklace and post- you always pick the best fashion images! Right now I am loving any bright colors and flowy sundresses- the weather is finally nice in Boston.
I love those Pour La Victoire Pascale sandals sandals too but they don't have my size on Shopbop boooo.
Loving the rooftop gardens as well!
I'm a big fan - this week - of sunny mornings, hearty oatmeal for breakfast, corona with lime and shopping for the most perfect pair of shoes that will eclipse all other shoes. Not sure if they exist but I will die trying...er, buying!
What a GORGEOUS necklace. I'm not much of a pearl person but this one is too pretty to pass up! I will be checking etsy!
That rooftop picture is lovely in a king of haunting way :)
How rich! I would like to wear that gorgeous necklace with that strapless blue and white number, preferably on that rooftop garden. Deal? Great.
Beautiful! Loving that necklace and I am loving the summer lately, so bright and sun shining everywhere! XO!
I absolutely adore the David and Victoria Beckham Armani ads as well! They look absolutely fabulous :) Then again, I adore Victoria, so I might be a little biased.

I love everything that you love CC!!!
Wow, waht a gorgeous necklace CC. Wonderful!
What a pretty necklace.
When I was about 10, I bought myself a this long plastic light pink beaded necklace and my entire family made fun of me. Ever since the, I've been wary of necklaces, but I might reconsider for this!
I love the very first photo in this blog! It's so pretty and colorful!
I am currently into prints...which sounds weird, I know. I generally go for more classic, basic looks but right now IO am actually buying dresses with prints on them =)
Thanks for the wonderful giveaway. That necklace is stunning!
The brown sandal heels are to-die-for! Love them. I'm also fascinated by the shot of the naked model covered in sand. It's fab!
xo,
Jessica
El pelo de Eniko Mihalik es impresionante, qué envidia...!
Qué preciosidad de collar, me encanta!! *.*
Por cierto, las medias/leggins de encaje que me tocaron en tu blog, se van a llevar mucho para este otoño/invierno. Ya sé con qué ponérmelas!! cuando vuelva de vacaciones, me hago una foto y la pongo en el blog para que veas cómo quedan =)

Great post, I loved all the photos. :) What I'm really loving now are sky-high heels with really unique detailing (like the Dior ones in your post!), or just tons and tons of straps. Often it's overdone, but when executed right the shoe is truly amazing; I especially love Pour La Victoire. Vests, vintage-y necklaces, and ripped pants/leggings are also really catching my eye.
Also, that necklace is absolutely stunning. ♥

That Daria sand shot must've been SO uncomfortable!! Those lingerie shoes are hot though, they would totally make you feel sexy anytime, anywhere.

Haha Lindsay Lohan is wearing the most inappropriate poolside shoes ever! And the handle on that bag is amazing - very creative! :) x
Seems like every celebrinista loves to wear Herve Leger dresses - swimwear is now on the radar with Lindsay and Paris wearing the very chic swimsuit. Can't blame them - Herve Leger is super flattering.
