{style inspiration | backstage at rodarte fall 2012 : stars}

. . . aside from nicole richie's brass seven-strand coin headpiece, few hair accessories have been as stunningly lovely—that is, until the utterly enchanting shooting stars seen on the runways at rodarte . . .

{a new week | so much beauty & hello}

. . . more backstage photographs at elie saab have surfaced, and they are, to be certain, as exquisitely lovely as the last, and as such, impossible to resist -- the enchanting glimpses of little moments and astonishingly beautiful details are spectacularly lovely . . . and this week has already begun much busier than the last, and so, things may be a little sporadic here & there, but there are a million new and beautiful things to get lost in and to share, and so it goes . . .

hope you had a wonderful weekend, and that your week is off to a perfect start, —roséline xo

. . . and of course, a glimpse behind the scenes, moments before the show -- elegantly wrapped ponytails and soft pinkish lips, fluttery eyelashes and a swirl to tulle and sequins . . .

{new year's style inspiration: sequins & lace}

. . . for last year's new year's eve festivities, it was a silvery lavender silk crepe dress, accessorized, of course, with a party tiara and hand-held sparklers; this year, sheer, lacy, and sprinkled with a million glittery paillettes may be just the thing . . .

{'twas the night before the night before}

. . . and today was one of those that was filled with all kinds of running round -- cocktail and holiday dresses at the dry cleaners, a stop at the hair salon, and even braving the shops filled with hapless, last-minute men . . . and there are still gifts to wrap and suitcases to pack, but for now, just a few quiet moments before it all begins . . .

{new york 2: the lincoln center}

. . . tuesday morning was a dash across the street & down from the hotel to catch the first ever tory burch runway presentation -- the spring 2012 collection -- at the lincoln center . . .



. . . running quite late that morning, forgetting a camera and having only an iphone on hand, but as it turns out, was quite caught up with the show to take many shots, and so, a few glimpses here & there, collected from a few lovely places around the internets . . .



. . . the collection, a perfectly playful mix of layered textures and 1920's northwestern france-inspired swinging silhouettes, prints and patterns and beribboned shoes, may have made one a little wistful for summer's end, but very much looking forward to its return once again, if only to be frolicking about in pretty polka dots, sequined stripes, and raffia-ruffled pencils skirts . . .





{p.s.} as always, more after the jump & apologies if you have seen this collection elsewhere -- spent the remainder of last week in a cabin in the mountains, as you know, and only a few moments to update now xo
