Awesome Ads!

I absolutely loved the famous September issue of Vogue this year. The ads were creative and a pleasure to look at. Some of my favorites were Salvatore Ferragamo, Oscar De La Renta, and Alexander McQueen.

Blinded by the Brights


Designers realized that bright hues are not just for Spring and Summer. This year is the first year in about ten years that designers have used this much color for Fall collections. Color blocking is not the main focus for Fall this year. Instead colors in the same palette are better. An accessory is also a great way to bring a bright color into a wardrobe.   

A red lip also punches up the colors. I know I would probably not go for a red lip and instead just do a bright pink.


Last summer I bought this maroon nail polish and used it on my toes. I realized that it went with my wardrobe and wore it all this summer. Apparently everyone else found this color appealing because I have seen it so many times on people's toes it is unbelievable. I just thought it was funny that other people noticed how it goes with almost anything. The maroon/purplish/reddish color was seen on the Spring 2012 Jason Wu runway so it must be a good choice in color.
