10 Things

First things first, darlings ~ the winner of CC’s Relastin Giveaway is the lovely Helen of Living Boldly - congrats!
Let’s reflect rather than resolve, shall we, darlings?

1) Couture (naturally!). This photo courtesy Fellow Fashionista Evi of Absolutely Ladylike.
2) Yoga and Pilates. Natasha Poly in French Vogue, February 2005.
3) New York City. Italian Vogue, December 2006.
4) Corsetry. Carmen Kass for Dsquared2, Spring 2006.
5) Beauty. Simona McIntyre in i-D, January 2009.
6) Architecture. The Guggenheim, Frank Lloyd Wright’s museum masterpiece on 5th Avenue, is 50 years old! Celebrate by building a scale model with Legos!
7) Inspiring Interiors. This photo courtesy Fellow Fashionista Averill of Odi et Amo.
8) Travel. Watercolor by Laura Trevey.
9) My Fellow Fashionistas! Vanity Fair.
10) Love. CC & DG.
