Luella Spring 2009 Ready-to-Wear Collection

Before I begin talking about Luella's Spring 2009 Ready-to-Wear Collection, I think we should review 2008s.


The 2008 collection was absolutely brilliant. Every ensemble on every model was planned out flawlessly with each piece. The hair and the makeup was a great touch and I love how they incorporated the bats. The whole look was so punkish chic - leather meets florals. I adore it. I went through the whole slideshow, and here are my favorite looks:








Remember - these are just the looks I love the most.

The 2009 collection was a little disappointing. Don't get me wrong, it was still amazing, but I was excepting so much more based on Spring 2008. I did not love the majority of the pieces in this collection, but the few outfits I did love were exquisite, even better than 2008.

Playful Julia Takes a Break

As much as I love my colorful and playful pictures, they can make me dizzy. I think I need a break. For the next few posts, I will be blurring my face opposed to using funny shapes and trying out Poladroid.net.

I want to try out many new things and see what you guys like best (I will have a poll on my blog soon).

I want my blog to improve. Any suggestions will help.

I am also going to put some new music on. And any layout suggestions are welcome.

And here is a polyvore I recently made:

Notorious Nikes

All my friends have been obsessed with Nike sneakers for a while now, but I thought Nikes would never work with my classic feminine style. As I flipped through the pages of Teen Vogue's February 2009 issue, I came across these fantastic Nikes that I could easily wear with my lacy dresses and tights. The best part... they're floral! Here they are - I hope you enjoy:
