Lunar New Year greetings and Color Inspiration: Louis Vuitton Spring 2011

February 3, 2011

Happy Lunar New Year for my friends who celebrate this holiday!  As the Louis Vuitton campaign below demonstrates, I wish you a luxurious year filled with bold colors, bright combinations, and a fearless approach to style and life!

Did you know these Lunar New Year’s superstitions:
– if you sleepiwith money on your bed the night before New Year begins (today) is supposed to bring you prosperity
– it is the last day to cut your hair for the New Year period was yesterday.  Cutting it in the next month is bad luck
– if you wear something red, you will receive luck and good fortune
– when you clean your house, you clean out the clutter from the last year
We’re picking up my husband’s aunt at the airport today for a short stay.  It’ll be nice to have family around now (because everything is closed here – woohoo public holiday!)
little luxury list

    I knew I should have slept with that $50 bill under my pillow last night. Bugger!

    I need to bookmark this post for next year. Btw – is that woman lying on the table in the second pic in a dress with petals sewn on?? It is gorgeous.

    Happy New Year to you!

    I hope you slept with a thousand bucks last night!!

    Great pictures! Happy New Year!
    I was talking to a friend about this today and she said we are supposed to write wishes for the year on red pieces of paper, seal them in red envelopes and then burn them tonight. She just sat red envelopes on my desk about 15 minutes ago. 🙂
