On Saturday, June 13th, Bella Bag will be hosting a Louis Vuitton Pop Up shop during Doggies on the Catwalk! You're pampered pooch will be the most stylish 'doggie' in the city with their LV collar, leash and carrying case.

This is very exciting and kudos to Bella Bag and the participating brands for demonstrating neighborly fashion love.

Whatever is greater than thrilled is what I feel right now!! Make sure and stop by Bella Bag at Buckhead Atlanta, I think I hear a Birkin calling your name.

Jennifer Lawrence in new Be Dior Ad Campaign

/

This is what a rich girl looks like. Chic, modern and while she knows fashion and invests in it, her style is always effortless. Kudos to the stylist.

Photographer Paolo Roversi shot the Dior campaign featuring the Oscar winning Jennifer Lawrence in a variety of flawless day looks and carrying the fabulous leather Be Dior bag. The styling, hair, makeup and minimal set work perfectly together. Everything feels so fresh. I love it. 

Great timing in rolling out the ad campaign as well since Jennifer Lawrence was missed at the Academy Awards.

Christian Dior Spring 2015 Couture

/

Raf Simons continues to embed his mark, vision and aesthetic on the House of Dior. Like other notable creative director's heading legendary labels, Simons is successfully balancing between new and tradition. I haven't seen a retro vibe present itself with so much freshness in a long time. This collection has so many stand out pieces in a broad range of silhouettes. Some of my faves: the psychedelic catsuits, the ribbons dress and most of the coats in the brightest colors.
