Tonight I attended the Anna Sui spring 2010 fashion show in look #14 from her fall 2009 collection. My favorite pieces from Ms. Sui's new collection include both the lamé & patchwork sundresses - I love the juxtaposition of rich fabrics in summery shapes. Please visit my blog at fashionshesays.com for more details.
My sartorial love of the day manifested itself as an indigo print dress detailed with a Peter Pan collar, a waisted sash & rubber buttoned cuffs. Bohemian joie de vivre inspired me to unabashedly layer bijoux, including a beaded bracelet over my left cuff & two heavy necklaces… More at fashionshesays.com.
Merry Christmas everyone! The oceanic swirling colors on my long sleeved silk frock remind me of the Caribbean Sea, on whose shore I long to be. Brightly colored clothing is a sartorial substitute for the tropical sun – here I glow in a neon purple cashmere cable-knit cardigan, a royal blue leather clutch & an elongated strand of faded yellow pearls… Fashionshesays.com.
I was lucky to find this vintage single-breasted jacket in excellent condition; none of the velvet is worn in patches as this material is wont to do. I layered it over a ruffled paisley dress: a woven necklace is attached to its collar, but I added two more chains for a richer look. I try to sparkle a little bit everyday – here a pair of dark gold tights emphasizes the glitter scattered across my dress… Fashionshesays.com.
This darkly shimmering dress was made for midnight strolls through orange groves & spinning through the candlelit halls of an abandoned manse. There’s an animal jamboree happening all over me: a ram’s head ring, a tortoise belt & a faux furry beast of a vest. Color me happy in a pair of pink patent leather slippers… Fashionshesays.com.
The kitchen was the starting place for both Miuccia Prada’s Miu Miu spring 2009 RTW collection (aprons) & my day of play (a pinafore). This pinafore dress is trimmed with lace/sparkly wisps & my accessories would inspire envy among Flavor Flav (a rap superstar necklace), Prince (a pair of purple tights) & Madonna circa Desperately Seeking Susan (some bangles)… Fashionshesays.com.
