Santana Row Poolside Soiree 2014
Santana Row’s annual Poolside Soiree took place June 7, 2014 and gave Fashionistas in the Bay Area and beyond a snapshot into what is hot for summer 2014. There was a large amount of flowing fabrics, hi-lo hemlines, boot-cut jeans/pants, softer hues than in season’s past, boho prints, boho silhouettes, pops of orange, pops of fuchsia, and form-fitting suiting for men. The overall vibe of the show was playful and fun; essentially what summer in the Bay Area is all about!

If you are local to the San Francisco Bay Area, make sure you come down to Santana Row in San Jose for a day of fabulous meals and even more fabulous shopping! I already have my eyes on several of these ensembles for summer. . .

Prada Luna Rossa Extreme edt review
Pictured: c/o Prada “Luna Rossa Extreme” eau de toilette and after shave balm from the limited edition gift set.
Prada Luna Rossa Extreme is the new fragrance for men from Prada. Debuting in December 2013, this popular men’s fragrance has quickly become one of the most coveted scents for men. For Father’s Day 2014, Prada has introduced a limited edition gift set which contains a 3.4 oz eau de toilette and 3.4 oz. after shave balm. This is the perfect set for Father’s Day; or any gifting opportunity for that matter!
We tested out both the eau de toilette and after shave balm from Prada Luna Rossa and loved the scent! The overall fragrance was warm with a peppery top which settled in after about twenty minutes. The heart of the fragrance is amber which is slightly sweetened by a light vanilla base. The fragrance experience is warm and offers medium strength; making it appropriate for everyday wear. Love that!
Top notes: Italian Bergamot, black pepper, fresh lavender
Middle notes: Leathery balsamic labdanum, juniper berry, amber
Base notes: Intense lavender absolute, vanilla
Prada Luna Rossa Extreme edt and after shave balm is perfect for the man in your life. The gift set can be found online here, here and here.
