Fall Fave – Baroque Prints

 

Over the course of this Fall season I’ve fallen in love with baroque prints. “The print plays out in a number of guises with varying degrees of intensity. For the bold, flashy chain prints on leopard spots intertwine with ropes on bomber jackets, elsewhere strikes of swirling black fauna adorn pencil skirts, while baroque tops with softer, ornate rococo swirls flow gently across jersey. The baroque trend isn’t restricted to clothing; with shoes and accessories getting in on the act too and ingenious devore on shoes make for a pretty introduction to the print.” – ELLE UK

 

Italian designer, Gianni Versace pretty much gave baroque prints a super boost in the fashion world. Here’s some history…

“Baroque’s fashion renaissance popped off in the late 1980s, when Milan-based Gianni Versace turned the Italian artistic tradition into wild pop art, replacing the angels and cherubs of Italian frescos with gold chains, Medusa heads and leopard skins printed on shiny silk. Everything in the Versace moment was big and brash, especially the supermodels like Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell and Linda Evangelisita who rocked the bold prints best. “

I was immediately smitten with the aesthetics of A Peace Treaty's FW12 scarf collection (the colors! the patterns! the streamlined looks! swoon!), but after reading the story behind the shop I was really captivated. Sometimes I find myself getting frustrated with the fashion world because it can be transparent and incredibly fleeting; but when reminded of the good it is capable of doing, I am always glad I fell in love with a form of art that can truly bring people from any background or country together.

Shoes- Aldo

Pants & Blazer – Sirens

Spike and stud are great accents to add an edge to any outfit. I love these spiked platform booties, they are a fashion favourite of mine. Burgundy hues are very popular colour trend for the fall season, and I’m obsessed with this colour as well. The striped shirt which is highlighted by a knit cream sweater, is also one of my favourite picks.

It's not everyday when you finish work early and get to enjoy the beautiful weather outside in the midst of the Fall. I wanted to utilize the rest of my day but stay local as I was kind of tired so I linked up with my best friend who lives near by and we roamed around my neighborhood with my little man Rex.

Lana Del Rey’s National Anthem Video Featuring A$AP Rocky

This video has made me love A$AP Rocky even more. Check him out in Lana Del Rey’s video National Anthem.

The concept is a classical twist. The two play the Kennedy’s, A$AP as JFK and Lana as Jackie O. According to Rocky with his interview with 16bars.tv he says “We did a video together … [it's] some swag sh–,” he said. “I play JFK, she plays Jackie O, you know, some cool, trippy sh–, some really 2015 sh–. People gonna get it in like three years, and that’s the whole purpose of it.”
