City At Your Fingers

By -
My roommate just returned to Japan after a 10-day trip to Yangon, Myanmar and confessed that she can't travel without falling in love with a place and leaving part of her heart in it. I know the feeling, having had my own heart stolen and broken by both Paris and China.

Jeweler Philippe Touraire is catering to those afflicted with wanderlust with his latest collection of rings. His architecture collection boasts compacted monuments and skylines of New York, Dubai and Paris. Rings with an Asian influence generally feature one stunning building at a time. If your travel plans are more relaxed, there is also a line of jeweled villages and walled cities.I can't read French, but I recognize the word platinum and four figures. For that price, I can just visit Paris again, but that doesn't make these sculptural rings any less fun to site-see.

During my search I found that Nordstrom had the best selection of plus size evening dresses. They actually have one of the best evening dress selections no matter what your size. The dresses range from elegant to fun and sweet to sassy.

Spring 2009 Couture

Jean Paul Gaultier's runway promoted one of my favorite fashion looks: pinstripes with a delicate, feminine print. He had high-waisted pants, suspenders, lingerie elements, lace, sheer fabrics, softly geometric designs, and monochrome dominated, much to my glee. His menswear-inspired looks are a testament to how graceful the style can be.
Christian Lacroix also paid homage to menswear with pieces inspired by matadors and soldiers. The complete collection wasn't cohesive, but even the breaks from theme were lovely. It's hard to argue with so many colors, ruffles and embroidery. Plus, I want that polka dot coat!
