Back to the Glamour

Most red carpet events hold an element of glamour all on their own.    But this year at Cannes, it seems as though celebrities are taking steps to ensure their attire might be something that came straight out of an F. Scott Fitzgerald novel.  This extravagance isn't coincidental (this Gatsby fever is downright congtagious!) and I'm loving it.

Gimme Color

I gravitate towards black.  I might even go as far as calling it my "favorite color".  But this time of year, when I've seen way too much dreary gray, I want nothing more than rainbows of color.  And when it comes to color inspiration, I like to think of  fashion in countries that seem to embrace all things vibrant - like Morocco, India, Spain, and Mexico.  I'm thinking long maxi skirts, flowing tunics, dangly,bejeweled earrings and patterned scarves scarves.  I know the whole Morrocan/Marrakech theme was huge back in '09, but could we please bring it back?  Below are some clothes and accessories techni-color dreams are made of... Can't you just imagine wearing these amazing pieces in the most exotic of locales with a glowing tan?
