When it comes to high fashion...of course I love my home - the great US of A, but I must say Italy is #1 for me, as far as fabric choice and taste level goes, for the fashion industry. You know my favorite designer is Roberto Cavalli, who just emulates the essence of Italy oh so well.

Fragrances we are loving {Blumarine + Balenciaga}

I’ve got some more perfumes I’ve been checking out aside from my fave at the moment,  Roberto Cavalli.  You know a perfume/cologne kind of sets the tone of your look.  Think of it as a scented soundtrack lol {probably makes no sense, but you get it}.

I’m following Fashion Bomb Daily’s guest writer, Angela Simmons' {Fashion Chick} post, which are awesome.  Angela shared her favorite perfume she’s been using for the past two years,  Tom Ford’s Black Orchid. It is a great post, and I left her a comment! {read Angela’s post here}

Thanks again to my friend Mark {perfume manager and Nordstrom @Perimeter Mall} for looking out. He recommend me these great samples that are popular at Nordy.



Balenciaga Paris 'Florabotanica' Eau de Parfum
$95.00 - $125.00



 I really love the presentation of the bottle, and the packaging definitely draws you in.  It’s classy and edgy, which brings me to the smell.  When I smell Florabotanica by Balenciaga, it puts me in the mind of a powerful woman who is in charge{my imagination}.  It’s a strong but womanly scent.  This would be a scent I would wear for special occasions like an event.  The scent is a great representation of the Balenciaga Chick.

Blumarine 'Innamorata' Eau de Parfum (Nordstrom Exclusive)
$70.00 - $95.00

This scent is soooo NICE and very womanly! The packaging is classy and luxe looking.  The smell is soft and inviting.  From the summary of the description, it’s a love potion {my words}. Hint, hint Chicks! I would use Innamorata by Blumarine as an everyday scent.  This one just may be my next scent.

Roberto Cavalli Spring 2013 {Men & Woman} + Watch This!!

Italian fashion designer Roberto Cavalli showed is Spring 2013 collection in Milan yesterday.  His collection celebrates the woman’s body impeccably.  It is greatly detailed.  Prints are his specialty, in which he took to another level in this collection. The dresses where like sexy slips with an edge and those shredded pants I WILL take in a 2 please and thank you! I love that he is big on separates including pants {my kind of style}.

This collection is drool worthy…Roberto Cavalli is an amazing designer, who happens to be my absolute favorite.  His aesthetic is really sexy and feminine/masculine in a luxe-chic way...it’s mysterious. The statement 'less {skin} is more' definitely comes to mind.

You have to seeee this collection in action below! #Innovative
