The Cognacs, Caramels, & Oranges of Fall 2011/2012

It's no secret that Fall/Winter is my favorite season! I can't wait to wear a pair of yummy tights, wintery wools, shiny leathers, and all the rich colors in the Fall palette. Some of my favorites include the delicious Cognac and Caramel shades which happen to be warmly on the color radar for Fall 2011-12. Orange is a great color carried in from Spring, and if you are a redhead make sure to wear the autumnal shade in small doses such as an accessory or as part of a larger color scheme....

GUCCI: Milan Fashion Week Spring 2012

It's been quite a Guiness World Records week in terms of trying to get a million things done in the span of just a few days, including my new Hats by Tanya Fall 2011 line which is currently out and in stores. In the meantime I am taking some time to catch my breath and use the ladies room, while I multitask and marvel at what feels like ten different Fashion Weeks having come and gone with the whirlwind of New York, then London, and now Milan. I've been excited to see what GUCCI has in store for next Spring, and designer Frida Giannini mostly did not disappoint. So many sharp geometric jackets, and endless parade of some perfect little roaring 1920's black and gold dresses , and a few random floaty looks thrown in between. Here are some of my favorite looks that came down the runway in Milan...
LOVE LOVE LOVE!
