Fashion Exhibition

 

Hi Guys! I just wanted to share with you an exhibition I attended at the Mint Museum yesterday. This is an incredible fashion exhibition, literally breath taking in person. Sorry for the poor quality photographs, I did not have my DSLR with me due to  this being a total spur of the moment adventure. The photos were snapped with my iPhone 5s and I hope you guys do not mind. There are styles from the 1700's to Haute Couture including Dior, Balmain, and YSL, which of course now is Saint Laurent. Both exhibits are superb. Every piece had an informational plaque that informs you  about the pieces and their designers. Here are just a few of my favorites from the collections.

Here are a few shots taken with my iPhone. Just wanted to share a couple snippets with you. Hope you all enjoy. Until next time...Xo 

Lattice

Top: American Eagle, Skirt: ASOS, Heels: Nine West, Necklace: Zara, Sunglasses: Prada, Lips: YSL Rouge Volupte #8, Nails: China Glaze -Shocking Pink & Sally Hansen -Pacific Blue

A pop of color with my normal black ensemble adds for some spring fun. I received so many compliments on this skirt and I must say I love the peek a boo feel of it. Pairing one of my all time favorite necklaces and my baroque sunglasses to finish off the look added some pizzazz! Hope you guys are having a wonderful day and until next time. 

Retro Vibe

Romper: Forever 21, Heels: Hoss Intropia, Necklace: Kate Spade, Sunglasses: Kenneth Cole, Lips: Urban Decay Revolution -Turn On, Nails: China Glaze -Shocking Pink & Sally Hansen -Pacific Blue

Sometimes it is just nice to keep an outfit simple. Rompers are the best invention ever! Just put it on and voila outfit, accessorize and you're ready to go! This one is super inexpensive which is always a plus! I added one of my most colorful statement necklaces and the most comfortable pair of sandals in my wardrobe and I was out the door! Hope you guys are having a FABULOUS day and until next time.

Soft Hues

Jacket: ASOS, Top: Ann Taylor, similar, Shorts: ASOS, Heels: Steve Madden, Ring: Gift, Necklace: Kate Spade, Sunglasses: Versace, Lips: NYX Xtreme Lip Cream -Candy Land, Nails: Color Club -Gold Struck & Sally Hansen -420 Pacific Blue

Two of my faves scallops & pastels! I absolutely adore the softness vibe this outfit gives off. I wore this to brunch today and it was a complete smash. I adore the pairing of the neutrals even though I am way more of a brights kind of gal. Hope you guys are enjoying your day and until next time.
