FLORENCE & FIRENZE4EVER

I was recently in Florence for Luisaviaroma’s #Firenze4Ever, an incredible event that revealed the best of the city’s fashion families, locations and general culture. From a dinner party in the Palazzo Pitti to a private party at the Cavalli villa, it was the time of my life.

During the trip I was shot by Jake Rosenberg, the incredibly talented photographer behind TheCoveteur.com. These are photos that he snapped on his iPhone on the way to the dinner in the museum.

The dress is by Antonio Marras, Kenzo’s previous designer. The pleating resembles one of  my favorite Kenzo dresses (last seen here) and it is my new favorite garment.

FEATURED: THE ZOE REPORT

rachel zoe, the zoe report, amber venz, blogger, reward style

When I was 20-years-old, I told my family that I was going to be the next Rachel Zoe. I packed up my car (and my brother) and drove out to Los Angeles, from Texas, to start my career.

After a few months in LA, I changed my mind; however, I am still a loyal fan of Rachel Zoe. For me, it is not really about her styling work or her clothing line, but the company and the brand that she and Roger have built.

I am thrilled to be featured on The Zoe Report today. My 20-year-old self would have a meltdown over this news. Click here to see the full story.

MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA BACK CHAIN

mmm, maison martin margiela, back chain, pearlI Found this Maison Martin Margiela back chain while scouring the Net A Porter SALE. When I started blogging, I had a jewelry line and I had a full range of harnesses, chain bras and back chains so this piece caught my attention. –And I love open-back garments, so double points.

This MMM back chain is on SALE now at Net A Porter for 30% off; however, if you are willing to make a stop by your local craft shop, this is a pretty simple DIY project.

No one will ever know.

SHOPPING AT ZARA

fashion blogger, zara clothes, spring 2013

I tend to invest in accessories (like my new Balenciaga boots or my yellow Celine trio bag) but when it comes to clothing, I have a nice mix of high street items- mainly from Zara and asos.

My local Zara store (Dallas) has a pretty poor selection so I order at Zara online about once a month quarter. Here are some of my most recent purchases.

Romper; Crop Top; Heels; Bomber.
