    O yes, CC, these posts so get my attention. Loving the Blumarine as always, and thanks for the intro to Holly Fulton - the graphic sheath is gorgeous.

    Keep this series alive for a few days, please?

    Love the Basso & Brooke - this is such an interesting cut and print.. the print looks like one of those vintage flower books with the diagrams.. i love such original inspiration that is so wearable. The color is fantastic and flattering on everyone. I also love the Coral-Red Erdem and the head to toe styling. Also very wearable. I love fashion that takes risks and is innovative but still makes a woman look attractive. Gorgeous post!
