I wake up today…HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY! Two of my all time favorite people: Karen and Diego! Can life be better?

The designer: Innovative, thought-provoking designs and elegance with hand-crafted, artistic detailing for a modern couture style.
The Collection: The set was a beautiful fantastical secret garden with models like living fairies in pin-tucked gowns and layers of silk chiffon and intricate beading. Any girl who wants to feel beautiful would lust for these dresses and gowns. A dream come true!

The designer: This New Zealand-based designer (and lovely person) has her own perspective of today’s downtown cool chick! Eclectic, interesting and artistic…Karen has great commercial success globally with her iconic glasses, foot wear and easy, hip separates.
The collection: 50’s tablecloth prints, preppy-boy shorts suits, Lucy and Ethyl head wraps in mustard, royal blue and flashes of unexpected bright coral.
