The bright red shoes [which I might add, are not pumps. Even better]. The feminine look of a man's outfit. I adore it.
Plus, it could probably hide the extra around my hip/waist area. Or make it look even worse. It really is a gamble, but one I'm absolutely willing to take.
There were only two or three disasters that walked, but the moment this look popped up, I immediately forgave Karl for a couple slip ups and began contemplating how I could possibly make this skirt appear in my closet.
It's rare that I pick one of the formal/red carpet gowns as my favorite. Because of course, they're incredible, but when was the last time [or the first time, rather] that I needed a dress for my red carpet event? Try never.
"Business to Beach" was the theme of Miuccia Prada's Spring 2010 Ready to Wear show that kicked off Milan Fashion week.
She strayed away from her traditional wacky pieces that challenge normal thoughts about fashion. The transition from casual to dressy combined with looks like bermudas and vests made out of dressier material. It started with the business looks and ended with the beach looks, creating a unique fluidity.
Not everything was totally wearable, but a great deal of the looks created a new aspect of Prada's design that could be worn for a multitude of occasions.
Not my favorite show, but definitely one of the best due to the originality of the looks and ideas. That, and Miuccia is a genius, per usual.
Okay, everyone picked this look at well. It's not necessarily something I would walk out of the house wearing, but I love the abstract layers and details.
My best friend describes me like this:
i am slightly obsessed with new york city, expensive shoes, and pretty things. i tend to overuse certain words and phrases, but it comes and goes depending on who i have last spoken with on the phone or over the internet.
i love my friends more than doing laundry, and i wouldn't have it any other way.
oh, and my dog wears a shock collar.
that's all.
but i describe myself as:
an aspiring journalist who loves my life, friends, family, fashion and writing. and personally boosting the economy with my shopping addiction.
