Gucci Bamboo edp is the hot new fragrance from iconic design house Gucci. This sweet floral fragrance is feminine, modern, and complex. Although the scent does not resemble actual bamboo, as the name suggests, the overall fragrance experience is sweet; yet balanced out by the sandalwood and amber base. Love!

Bamboo by Gucci has a long lasting fragrance experience which is complex. The slightly fruity top, layered with a hearty, warm and sweet floral heart, anchored by a woody base, gives this perfume the perfect balance between woods, and florals. Love that!

Top notes: Italian Bergamot, Orange Blossom

Middle notes (heart): Casablanca Lily, Ylang-Ylang

Base notes: Sandalwood, Tahitian Vanilla, Amber

Gucci Bamboo is the perfect fragrance for the spring and summer seasons. The combination of woods, and florals, lends well to both moderate, and hot temperatures. The overall fragrance experience is medium strength; which allows Gucci Bamboo edp to be appropriate for the office, luncheons, evening occasions, and weekends.

If you are looking for the perfect summer birthday gift, or a graduation present, Gucci Bamboo edp is a great option! The gift set can be found online here. The perfume is available in a variety of sizes, as well as a travel size. She will love it!

I absolutely love the travel size of Gucci Bamboo eau de parfum. It is perfect for my carry-on when I am traveling by air, and it is also ideal for slipping into a weekend bag for a short road trip. Not only is it the perfect, TSA approved size, the packaging is beautiful! The travel size is pictured above with a full bottle, don’t you just love the pretty bamboo styling! I love it! I cannot wait to keep this bottle with me for all of my upcoming summer trips; as well as fashion week in September! It’s perfection.

Gucci Bamboo eau de parfum can be found online here, here, and here. The purse spray can be found online here.

Now that the weather has become a bit warmer, it is more difficult to wear flare jeans on a daily basis. I need to wear a heel, or a wedge, with flares, and sometimes I would prefer to wear footwear which is a bit more comfortable. Thankfully, baggy boyfriend jeans are a hot trend this season, so I have a great alternative to my flares for the warmer weather! Love that!

Baggy boyfriend jeans are perfect for casual days. They are comfortable, non-constricting, and easy to style. They can easily be dressed up with high wedges, heeled sandals, or funky pumps. They can also be worn casually with a low heel, flat sandals, or flats. Since I am short, I prefer to wear a low heel.

This particular pair of baggy boyfriend jeans has heavy distressing; this allows for natural ventilation at the knee, which is great when the fog burns off, and temperatures heat up. I don’t feel like I have to rush home to switch into shorts, the baggy boyfriend jeans stay cool. Love it!

Since these jeans are baggy, I like wearing a low heel. I am short and the lower heel elevates me more than a pair of flats. Also, wearing a small heel with baggy pants helps to keep my legs from looking frumpy; which easily happens with flats, and baggy jeans on me! Yikes!

My beautiful nine-year-old daughter took these photos, and I think she did a pretty good job! She is really creative, and enjoys learning photography, art, and fashion design. It is fun seeing her interests grow, and develop. Someday she will be an artistic force to be reckoned with! Love!

Thank you for stopping by 🙂
