# 46 Don’t Argue
The difference between a discussion and an argument. In one, something is accomplished. There is settlement, validation, movement, a positive progression toward a goal. This exchange can shift perspective, encourage growth, and bring the participants closer. It’s a trust…
For all the men out there, please take notes. Thanks.
Michi
Lioness bra
I’ve been fascinated recently with edgy lingerie. Don’t get me wrong, I do love my lace and stringy pretty things barely cover my body but I almost want to wear bras like this one from the Canadian-based lingerie company Michi as outwear.
The latter part, I almost want to wear this under a sheer blouse and just go with it.

Happy 10th anniversary/birthday to Lanvin designer Alber Elbaz! He’s the man who made Lanvin an internationally known high fashion brand (especially with the bright, jewel toned dresses and big flouncy ruffles and statement necklaces).

Valentino
Fall RTW 2012
Model: Vanessa Axente
Opening look.
Even though no one usually think there would be the dominant use of black in a Valentino collection (now created/run by the duo Pier Paolo Piccioli and Maria Grazia Chiuri), it looks modern and feminine that it suits his name.
Alexander McQueen
Fall RTW 2012
Model: Siri Tollerø
If you do look at the McQueen collection (seen here via Vogue.com). It’s not the typical McQueen we’re used to. It’s a bit more optimistic (rather than Lee’s sinister, darker) exploration of nature. However, the tailoring of the nipped waist and silhouette still remains.
