Update

Oh, goodness. I can't believe how long I've been detached from the blogosphere! Life sure does get in the way.

During my travels, I picked up Classy: Exceptional Advice for the Extremely Modern Lady by Derek Blasberg, a book I've been wanting for a while.



Let me just say, it has changed my life!

It's so hilarious and incredibly charming. It answers all my questions about what an interesting and fun yet respectable woman is like. You should really read it!

Well, I am doing my best to get into a routine of posting. Talk to you soon!

I am infinitely regretful for my posting habits of late... from when I got back from New York to the final week of school was completely crazy. Prom, finals, term papers, ahhh! I made it, though. Yay.

It's hotter than a manicotti right now (Julie & Julia, anyone?), so I like to wear as little clothes as possible. Though I feel like I've thickened up a bit, probably thanks to this. Uhh.

Thank you for still reading The Bambina!!!

Make You Feel Brand New





I'm going to New York, friends!

So excited to bring back clothes, pictures, and inspiration. It's my favorite city in the whole wide world!

Look for a post in a week or so.

XOXO

Glamour


Those are beautiful pants, no?



"In Budget Blues", Bon S/S 2010

I see these as a slightly edgy, punk take on 40's boyish glamour. Reallllly love the hair and model! (Can't find her name, though.)

A recent jaunt to Sephora went like this:
Makeup Artist: What can I help you find?
The Bambina: I love red lipstick. A bright blue-red would be nice!
MA: *shock* Uh, RED LIPSTICK?!! YOU?!! It's so... can I say it?
The Bambina: Say it, say it!
MA: Red lipstick. It's outdated! It's for 45 year-old women who want to look sexy! It completely overwhlems you! Let's find you a nice pink.

I ended up loving this burgundy Benetint, but I'm pretty sure I'll still wear my red lips. Add "nonconformist" to list of things they make me feel like!

Beams




Backstage at Louis Vuitton

I love this vibe! There's a unique futuristic feel, yet something so feminine and timeless. The prints are enthralling.

Saturday starts my spring break, and I am so thankful. I can't wait to wear colorful sandals, eat fruit salad, and hunt for Easter eggs. The pre-summer! Follow my annoyingly cheerful tweets? my twitter

Love from Paris




So fresh and fun, no?

I got a little freaked out seeing everyone decked out in green today. Felt like it was a communist uniform or something!

Have a great rest of the week, darlings.

P.S: My friends at Jesse's Kids would love you if you followed them. I think they're pretty darn funny.
