I Dream of Elie
Words can't express how completely stunning Elie Saab's Fall and Spring 2011 Couture collections are so I will just let you see for yourself.
Cut Me Some Slacks
I was flipping through Rue Magazine this morning and came across this awesome pair of pink pants from Net a Porter :
However, I don't exactly have $390 dollars floating around to spend on them. So I looked around for some cheaper alternatives, like this cute $59 black pair from Urban Outifitters:
And I hit the motherload at Forever 21 where I found a cool shiny blue pair, and some fantastic tribal print varieties all under $30!
Love!

Two Small Parisian Apartments
Check out these two very different and very lovely small Parisian Apartments.
First up, this calming and classic space from A La Parisienne. I absolutely love it! The colour scheme reminds me of roses and chocolate and cream. So dreamy.
The second apartment found via decor8 is more cluttered and modern, but still full of beautiful feminine design elements. I love how the bed becomes a cozy nook by putting the bookshelves in front of them.

Royally Chic V: Diana, Princess of Wales
Princess Diana: Classic & Bold
Diana's rebelliousness was reflected in her wardrobe, which featured skin showing LBDs and electric pops of colour. Pointy toed shoes and black tights were go-to accessories for the Princess, as were drop earrings. She wore her often menswear inspired ensembles with effortless class. Here's my version:
Royally Chic IV: Anne Boleyn, Queen of England
Anne Boleyn: Refined & Mysterious
Queen Anne may have dressed in dark tones, but she wasn't one to be overlooked. With rich velvets, low cut square necklines, and unique pearl and gold accesories, Anne would have no problem catching the eye of King Henry VIII. See how Tudor can go modern below:
Royally Chic III: Princess Ariel
Ariel, The Little Mermaid: Bright & Nautical
You can't talk about my favourite royals without including at least one Disney princess! Mimicking the colourful sea world that she comes from, Ariel loves to wear bright clothes that incorporate ocean motifs like shells. Here is a set inspired by this bubbly (get it?) mermaid:
Royally Chic I: Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge
I really loved seeing the different outfits Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge put together for her recent tour of Canada. It inspired me to put together a few Polyvore sets inspired by some of my favourite royal leading ladies. First up, Kate Middleton:
Duchess Catherine: Youthful & Sophisticated
Whether low-key or formal, Catherine is all about classic pieces that she can (and does!) wear more than once. Some reoccuring motifs in her wardrobe include form fitting dresses with sleeves, clutches and shoes in neutral colours, and lots of navy and beige. Here is my take on her style:
