Well, here it is… my first post… I wanted to wait for something to catch my eye. If anyone has picked up this month’s issue of Vogue (July 2008), flip to the inside cover… Hysteria Collection by Gucci. Priceless. The epitome of “Gucci and Gold.” Purples and golds, with brown hues. Very fall. Very classic. Full of furs and suede. I’ve never been a big fan of monograms… So the simplicity of the suede and leather bags is a plus for me. However, the metalic Gucci monogram on the butt of those jeans? WOW. The oversized “carpet” bag is absolutely gorgeous… reminds me of Mary Poppins’ bag of endless treasures; gives me a little tingle =) I’m not usually about busy-ness but this bag is beautiful. Overall, I am impressed by this new collection by Gucci. Simple and classic. Something you could actually wear off the runway and not get masses of “what the hell is she wearing” stares! Way to go Gucci. You stuck to your somewhat eccentricity with the bags and fur but kept it classic with the monochromatic fall colors of purples, browns and golds; stuck to the monograms you are known for but toned it down by matching the monogram to the bag color itself. I would definitely rock the monogram in this collection… to where, if I had a few thousand dollars, I would run to my nearest Gucci store and fully stock up on the Hysteria line. Loved it.
