Simply share the way you use Juliska to help you celebrate the holidays with the #JuliskaJoy for a chance to win. Merry Merry!

Elie Saab's Collections are always the epitome of elegant taste and this season's Pre-Fall Collection was no different. Of course, I immediately responded to the feminine blush tones, fox fur, and fabulous brocade fabrications. Simply stunning.

Perfect Pair of PJs

During the holidays, I always find that I certainly spend more time in my pjs than any other time of year. Lately, I have been quite into crisp and classic pajamas like these Journelle ones. Yet, there are also so many other darling sets to choose from like these from Marigot or these from J.CREW. What do you consider the perfect pair of pjs?

Fete Chic


I came across this gorgeous invitation suite designed by MaeMae & Co and much to my delight  it is called the "Beau" (my son's name). How could I not love it? I was instantly drawn to the incredible color combination of Tomato Red and Blush. It instantly reminded me of the this exquisite gown by Giambattista Valli. How perfect would it be to attend a fabulous fete with this menus while wearing this gown?

Textured Winter Whites



I will always be a fan of winter whites. As I searched for a way to make the look even more elegant this year, I found myself gravitating towards texture. Whether its incredible appliqués or fluffy feathers, these textures add amazing dimension to any look. I have found that Giambattista Valli has unlocked this styling with pieces like this dress and this top (as shown above), but there are also plenty of styles that are more mainstream (and affordable!) like this fabulous Club Monaco feather skirt
