[ GLAM ]

Let's start the weekend with something small but "glam":

VALENTINO - Glam studded leather bracelet

[ chain, chain, chain... ]

I'm loving the idea right now of getting a small chain-strap shoulder bag...

these four are gorgeous!!

Obviously, a CHANEL is missing here..... 

that would probably be "the" most perfect chain bag!

1. CHLOE - Elsie shoulder bag

2. VALENTINO - Rockstud lock shoulder bag

3. PIERRE HARDY - snakeskin-trimmed bag 61 mini

4. MULBERRY - Cecily snake print

[ "rockstud" forever ]

I know, VALENTINO's "rockstud" handbags are not everybody's cup of tea...

but I was happy to see them back on the runway for Spring 2013 with new materials.

For all those who aren't crazy about the studs, there are other options...

plenty of simple & luxurious clutches and bags - without the studs.

[ THREE WISHES ]

"And you want three wishes:

One to fly the heavens

One to swim like fishes

And then one you're saving for a rainy day

If your lover ever takes her love away"

The Pierces

Well, I wouldn't mind having three wishes right now....

ACNE - Rita jacket

VALENTINO - va va voom mini rockstud bag

BALENCIAGA - ripped cap toe ankle boots

[ rockstud ]

VALENTINO's "rockstud" bag line can't go unnoticed. Love it or hate it. There was a moment I thought I'm over studs... but I really like these bags, it's not too aggressive & since the bags look so chic the studs give them a nice "edge", a little bit of rock'n'roll! I could definitely see myself wearing one ;)

[ VALENTINO - SS12 ]

oH wOW.... only VALENTINO can do such things... these dresses are incredible beautiful! The colors, fabrics & embroideries so romantic and yet so dramatic.

Since my post "say yes" (click here) I'm convinced that if I ever get married it has to be in a Valentino gown!!

[ say YES ]

AAaahhh, that's some amazing wedding dress! by VALENTINO... I'm not surprised. What a stunning bride!

Now that's my idea of "the perfect day"...

By the way, the groom is wearing Prada. Nice!
