It's been a little while since I did my first Word Association post and while it's taken a number of months, I'm especially enamoured with this collection. Rosabaya is the soft meeting ground between the matte, functional neutrals and the multi-coloured metallic spectrum. The way it allows a mixture of über feminine and fun classic pieces that enhance natural beauty in every way is consistent as well as open-ended. It's something that will never go out of fashion, and establishes a base for style regardless of time or occasion. What's particularly interesting for me is how well I can see these pieces merging with other styles in an unpredictable yet fitting venture, regardless of an individual's penchant for this cut, that fit, or those sensations. In this set, I sought out items that tap into this timeless appeal and speak directly to the great epochs of fashion. Plus, word association wouldn't be the same without some staple pieces that are a part of every day life.
