GUCCI GOT ITS GROOVE BACK

March 7, 2016 janet gunn

As I was flipping through my favorite fashion magazines, I couldn't help but fall in love with Gucci's new changes to the brand. Birds, butterflies, dragonflies, hummingbirds, and flowers...I am definitely in love. I found a loafer that gave me "Happy Feet".

I am happy to say I have held onto most of my Gucci pieces. I continue to wear my belts, shoes, and purses, and they still hold up with today's fashion. I've been a Gucci fan for many years. Their new creative director Alessandro Michele; from Rome, has become fashion's new favorite renaissance man and I can see why.

The new Princetown slipper in canvas. Love the contemporary floral motif that was inspired by Chinese landscapes depicted on 18th century tapestries and screens.

Here in California, we practically live outside. Gucci's new design is a perfect feeling for everyday and all day. You will feel like you are surrounded in a garden.

Gucci on the go... Put birds, butterflies, and dragonflies on my feet any day of the week!

These Gucci High heeled sandals still look stylish for day or night. Slip off the loafers and slide on the heels.

Love this groovy Metallic Crossover Sandal

I still love these Gucci closed toe heels. I'm so happy I saved these!

Sometimes it's hard to know what to keep and what to let go of. I find I hold onto the sentimental pieces. Do you have something you are questioning to let go of? Let me know, should it stay or should it go...

I'd rather wear a beautiful scarf any day that a piece of jewelry. I've had this scarf for twelve years. It's timeless and once again the floral print feels so romantic. Uniqlo Black Blazer / AG Jeans / Equipment White Top /

COZY IN CRIMSON CASHMERE

January 26, 2016 janet gunn

Having my coffee one morning while flipping through Instagram ...I came across the page of Lindavwright. Seeing photos of a poised and chic woman wearing beautiful scarves on the streets of Paris was eye candy to me, so I began to follow her. After a little more investigating I discovered she had a boutique in Paris France, called Crimson Cashmere; located right in the heart of the Triangle d’or. We were on our way to Paris for summer vacation and staying in that area, so I had to pay her a visit. After a few more “likes” on her page, I found her on Facebook, Pinterest, then I noticed she was a Texan, and from my hometown Fort Worth! Yee-Haw...Now I was hooked. I couldn’t wait to meet her and make a connection with a Texan living in Paris. After breakfast, we strolled to the boutique and found Linda. There she was... chic, relaxed and tall! Linda has incredible style and of course the boutique was charming. I couldn’t resist this beautiful blue Cashmere sweater that made it’s way home with a Texan, who loves Paris.

The shelves were stocked with beautiful colors. I chose this tropical blue cashmere sweater. I thought it would be perfect for our California weather. I'm a fan of the color combo- blue and brown.

BEIGE - UNDERSTATED ELEGANCE

January 12, 2016 janet gunn

I love the look and feel of wearing a neutral & soft color. Mixing nude colors gives you a certain classy and ladylike look. It can be a bit tricky wearing beige and nude colored outfits. By mixing it with a little color, texture, and throw in an edgy purse and shoes, you'll walk out the door with an understated elegance.. It's classic, sophisticated, and after all... it's about how you feel while creating your own personal style.

The French women had the right idea when they never left the house without a scarf...
