ROCK THESE DETAILS!Today's Couture Carrie post is about rock, in 2 ways: stones on clothes and accessories AND the fun music tag I recently got from both Marta http://withlovegabrielle.blogspot.com/ and Bostonista http://bostonista-bostonista.blogspot.com/ . See below!
We begin with stone-decorated dresses, from conservative ladylike luxe to beachy chic.

Of course, accessories were rocked as well!
"Gaud" was in the details at Missoni. See the brilliant runway looks at left, where stones embellished everything from necklaces to belts.
