Maven Inspiration: Elsa Peretti's Italian chic

Good afternoon, Tuesday. 

I've had a busy day of things but just had to share who's inspiring me today, and it's none other than Elsa Perretti, she of Tiffany jewelry fame. Best known for her work in silver, Peretti created some of the brand's most iconic pieces like that heart you've had for most of your adult life. 

I got a little insert with my Bazaar magazine from Tiff and Co. all about Elsa and I could barely handle her incredible chic. Apparently, Elsa and I see life very much the same way- there's caftans, dogs, short hair, and fabulous gay boys. I do draw the line at bunny ears, because after that shot by Helmut Newton himself, how could anyone even attempt such goodness? Oh, and smoking, but it was the 70s, darling. From the short hair, big glasses, and simple yet luxurious and layered jewelry with basic black. Love. The trench and trouser and hat bit below is to die for. I love her boho/minimal/masculine/feminine/creative vibe all at once. So amazing. How do those Italians do it?

And that's what's up this diamonds by the yard of a Tuesday in the Tiffany 212. Yours, in huge glasses and good genes. XO
