BCBGMAXAZRIA – Spring 2011 Collection

Vanessa Choot April 17, 2011

At the beginning of spring, I went to a press event for BCBGMAXAZRIA to see what trends were in store for the upcoming 2011 season. I was also the lucky winner of a $1000 shopping spree to BCBGMAXAZRIA (which I have mostly spent) so I am well-equipped and greatly familiar with BCBGMAXAZRIA’s Spring 2011 collection.

The BCBGMAXAZRIA colour trend for 2011 consists of an overall dusty pastel pink, grey, white and cream color scheme. Various contrasting feminine materials were set side by side in comparison: eyelet and stiff lace patterns in feminine tops, tulle paired with lace and large floral patterns.

Marc Jacobs Daisy – Eau So Fresh

Vanessa Choot January 28, 2011

Described as vibrant, charming and whimsical, Daisy Eau So Fresh is the “spirited new version” of the original Marc Jacobs Daisy fragrance. “It transports you to a place that is happy and sunny exuding a youthful spirit with a positively fresh and charmingly simple feeling”.  

Despite the floral name, Eau So Fresh is actually a fruity twist on the original Daisy fragrance radiating with “crisp raspberry, sensuous wild rose, and deep and warm plum.”  The overall scent is clean and crisp, and perfect for a transition into the spring season.
