red valentino pre spring/summer '12

Break me off a piece of this. Above are a few of my favorite looks from RED Valentino's Pre Spring/Summer 2012 collection. Am I alone in thinking that it screams Lee Radziwill circa 1960?

long live the queen!

Sixty years ago on this very day, Queen Elizabeth II ascended to the throne. She was just twenty-five years old – can you even imagine?! To read up on how the royals plan to celebrate Her Majesty’s Diamond Jubliee, click here. If only I were in Europe to partake in the festivities! I guess une petite glass of champagne post-work will have to do. Or maybe I'll throw on a tiara whilst doing the laundry. How will you be celebrating?

my stuff: sofia coppola

Vanity Fair always has the best features. I picked up the March issue today – which, by the way, has the most beautiful cover – and discovered that Sofia Coppola is the subject of this month’s “My Stuff.” I enjoyed it tremendously and thought you might, as well. Who would have thought that her favorite color is hot pink?
