Stunner Piece: Jewel Encrusted Dolce & Gabbana Bodysuit

This bejeweled bodysuit from the Dolce & Gabbana S/S RTW 2012 runway is continually popping up in my recreational readings and I can't get it out of my mind! Finally, last week it (sort-of) turned up here while I was online shopping. Being that it is sold out, and even if it weren't I still couldn't afford it at $13,760 -- I finally decided to blog it out of my system. So, that is that. It is a gorgeous piece, and if I can't have it in my closet at least I have it on my blog and you can enjoy it, too!

Mario Testino's Hollywood Home

Photographer Mario Testino has turned the camera on his own home for the March 2012 issue of Vogue. Natalia Vodianova is shot standing amongst Testino's impeccably curated collection of art and ecclectic furniture wearing some of the hottest spring fashions, including these flaming Prada wedges. Testino complements the 1930's hacienda-style architecture of his home by incorporating his Peruvian heritage into the decor with use of Incan artifacts, Peruvian textiles, and colonial antiques throughout - a tribute to the country's layered history. Each piece represents a part of Testino's life and their dialogue paints a potrait of the artist.
