. Oh, So Pretty .

With wedding planning on my mind, I've been completely drawn to everything romantic.  When I'm not thinking about bouquets and wedding dresses, I'm thinking about being romantic - candlelit dinners, moonlit walks, and lazy evenings consisting of conversation and vino are all I want.  Well, it just so happens Valentino's Spring 2012 line completely satisfies my current craving.  The dresses couldn't be more feminine and the and easy floral prints are the stuff dreams are made of.  I really can't get enough of the dusty rose, powder blue, and subtle silver that seems to highlight this amazing collection.

The World in a Grain of Sand

Of all things, sand, has been my inspiration as of late.  From the its soft earthy hues, to the varying textures, I love everything about it, and interestingly enough it translates beautifully into fashion.   Since it comes in such a variety of shades (from powdery white to burnt sugar brown) it can work on any complexion and is the perfect simple alternative when white and black become too blah.
