{designer} Rosamosario



While looking over my boards on Pinterest a while back, I noticed that, for someone who claims to love the dark and macabre, my choices in fashion might just say otherwise.  Perhaps it's the fact that I'm {finally} growing up, for I have found myself in a full blown love affair with all things pretty + ladylike. Bring on the tulle, {Chantilly} lace, ruffles, sequins, and pleats in blush, mint, or pale taupe.

This transition into "lady-hood" has propogated a few new interests, one being an obsession with beautiful lingerie.  Now, when I say "lingerie", I'm not talking Fredrick's of Hollywood slut wear, but rather the type that oozes sexiness while still maintaining a high level of sophistication. Think Sofia Loren.

Luckily for ladies like moi, Italian lingerie brand Rosamosario did just that.  

Rosamosario came to be in 2005.  It was created by Venice based Carlotta Danti with the aim of fusing contemporary design with traditional Italian craftsmanship. "Specializing in refined yet seductive separates; Rosamosario's collection of Chantilly-lace trimmed pieces and glossy silk slips draws it's luxury appeal as much from its fabrics as its artisanal detailing." {net-a-porter}

Translation, Rosamosario is for the stylish woman who appreciates the good things in life along with one of the best parts of life. Or as Ludacris would say the "lady in the street but a freak in the bed."

i love pretty clothes. or as my dad would say "pretty expensive" clothes.  put me in a store and 9.9 times out of ten, i'll gravitate to the most expensive items. it's not because i'm label obsessed (i actually once turned down a miu miu skirt that was practically being given away because it was, well, disgusting).  it's because i like pretty things, which generally translates in fashionspeak to "buy purse of pay mortgage".  however, every now and then, a store like ax paris pops up and throws the whole fortune for fashion curve off.  now, as someone who likes her items pretty, but also works hard for her money, this is a trend i can jump head first in to.  i mean,what could be better than a blush colored lace embellished tunic for thirteen bucks? (i guess you could say one for twelve bucks, but you get my point)...
