Today I’m inspired by Melissa Sweet, and purple. I love purple and the different color combos you can do with it. Honestly, I secretly wish one of my girlfriends will get married this summer and use the color purple. I love the purple bridesmaid dress by Melissa Sweet. Would it be weird if I wore a bridesmaid dress for everyday wear?

This Sunday is the Oscars and I can’t wait! I really hope someone will walk the red carpet in purple. Just like the gorgeous deep purple gown Sandra Bullock wore by Bottega Veneta to the Golden Globes.

I love Vera Wang. I love how she takes risks and inspires trends in the fashion world. I would love to see a bride wear a black gown. There is just something rich and classy about black and white.

It is always trendy and you can add a splash of color to this palette. Today I’m inspired by Vera Wang and black and white.

This week the fashion world lost an icon. Designer Alexander McQueen was found dead in his apartment on Thursday morning. He was a huge influence on the fashion world and me. Today I’m inspired by Alexander McQueen and Valentines Day.
