J’adore Dior

 

I LOVE this man.

 

John galliano

OK…

 Not in the, "let's get married and have babies way" more like in the, "if you could just design everything I will ever wear in this lifetime that would be GREAT" way.

This is how I imagine our relationship would go…


 

                           Me:       "Hey John-John?"

                 Galliano:     "Yes, love of my life, Allyson Darling!!!"

                          Me:      "Sweetheart, could you make me a dress for:

 

Dior1

when I'm walking Roxy in the park?"

 


Dior2

when I'm going to an imaginary board meeting?"

 


Dior3

when I'm acting like a 1950's hussy?"

 


Dior5

when I want to look profession yet stuck in the 50s — in a good way?"

 


Dior6

when I want chins to drop?"



Dior8

when I need a trench coat on a rainy day?"

 

 

Dior9
 

when I want to channel Marie Antoinette minus that whole unpleasant decapitation incident?

Dior10 

when I want to pretend I'm Dita Von Teese?"

 


Dior11 

when I want to casually look PERFECT?"

 


Dior12 

when I want to feel like Jackie Kennedy?"

 


Dior13

when I need extra padding on my bum… such as on an icy day?" *

 

(*Like 5 days ago, cough, cough, bruised bum, cough, cough.)


 

Dior15

when I'm hungry for lemon sherbet but I don't want the calories?" 

 


Dior16

when I want to say, "not tonight honey, I'm tired from dragging around 50 pounds of feathers?"

 

 

Dior18

when I want to look like a frothy cappuccino ?"

 

 

Dior19

when I want to go incognito?"

 


Dior20

when I want to feel the earth move with every step of my overpriced Louboutin?"

 

 

              Me:       "Awwww, thanks baby!  LOVE YOU!!!!!

   Galliano:       "Love you too!"

             Me:        "Umm, darling, why does this check to the pool boy have so many zeros? 

Galliano:           ……………………….

            Me:         "Well, crap… "

Alice in Wonderland

I'm soooo excited for the new Alice in Wonderland movie!  If you haven't seen the preview yet, check it out!


My nickname in kindergarten was Alice in Wonderland, so the story brings back fond memories.  Seeing the trailer also reminds me of the FABULOUS spread that Vogue did back in '03.  Shot by the talented Annie Leibovitz, I love how she incorporated the fantasy of the story with the designers who created those gorgeous gowns.
