Sometimes, some things, are just straight up purty.

Guc + ci = Handsomely Sparkling Ladies for Milan Fashion Week Spring 2012

My glittering fantasies that were awoken this season, first with the Marchesa collection and then tickled with the Giles collection, were fully realized with the second half of the Gucci Spring 2012 runway show. Frida Giannini made me get giddy with anticipation for all of the editorials to come using these sparkling ensembles. 

I am in LOVE with Abbey Lee Kershaw and this photo just about sums up how beautiful her face is. The makeup is vampy and over-done but heh what isn't in the fashion world? 

 As Gertrude Stein puts in her Tender Buttons, "certainly glittering is handsome and convincing".
