Blazing Trails-

Vogue U.K brings vibrancy and color in a carnival editorial called, "Trail Blazers" for March 2009. Stunning and reminding me of a Brazilian vacation I've yet to travel, this fashion story instantly pulled me in... As well, I must mention I am a huge admirer of Mario Testino. His range of photographic images are purely captivating... the styling is a dream, along with the scenery... these locations are simply imaginary in a beautiful, nearly unreal setting. Amazingly, this issue represents the U.K and reminds me of a lost land in Peru. In addition the fashion statements conveyed here, insist that we layer on the textures and colors for Spring 2009... it is all about colors worn to an extreme. Enjoy!! x
