Afternoon Wedding Dresses and More...

Big sale at Yoox these days, a great source for discount designer clothes, and more interesting pieces than sites like Bluefly.

How cute is this one -

It's a little formal, perfect for an afternoon wedding. There are other shapes in a similar fabric, this one is stunning -

That would work for a more formal evening event as well.

And this more casual Michael Kors dress -

I love the retro shape of this dress, and it comes in a bright red or dark blue as well. It's a $500 dress marked down to under $200, sounds great to me!

Yoox also has a ton of Superfine denim for $70-$80, a really good deal. Check out these adorable capris -

Summer Dresses Under $100

Hard to believe you can still get an adorable little dress for under $100, but you can. Really.

A cute and not-at-all-trashy sequined dress for under $100? Yes indeed -

This dress is absolutely ADORABLE! If you live somewhere that gets hot (i.e not Northern California) and you go out a lot, it's a no-brainer. The shape is adorable, the pattern and colors are so much fun and it's $60. Yup, you read that right...

This little white dress is so sweet -

Who can resist a red like this?

Another cute option -

Ella Moss for Summer

The past few seasons of Ella Moss have been a little disappointing, but something has changed now - there are so many great looking pieces my head is spinning!

I LOVE the color and shape of this dress -

It looks like the perfect hot weather, throw-on-everyday kind of dress.

And how cute would this top look with shorts, flat sandals and some fun earrings for your next day in the park -

I like a floaty top on a warm day, plus you can go ahead and eat that second hot dog and still feel comfortable! Plus, the top is on sale.

There are many more where these came from, including some very cute chambray tops...

Akiko Tops and Dresses...

I was poking around the Revolve's site (as always, ok) and saw this line I wasn't really familiar with before, Akiko - and promptly fell in love with every single thing! I think you will too when you see the fabulous dresses and tops,

I love the color of this dress -

And my absolute favorite dress -

Sadly it appears to be sold out at the moment, but you can request that they re-order it and they will let you know the status. I am thinking of doing that myself...

Packing for Spring Break part 1

Going on a vacation this Spring? We are going to Florida for a few days at the end of March and I'm already thinking of what I want to pack. It's fun to think about nice weather and summer clothes when it's cold and stormy here. First up, those great Jcrew peep toes I posted yesterday, but what else?

How cute would this little dress be as a poolside cover-up?

And I love white jeans -

I have a pair of wide leg white jeans from last summer but I'm thinking of adding a skinny pair, and Citizens makes the great pair above.


And for shoes, these adorable Stuart Weitzman sandals are on sale -

They also come in white patent, which looks great as well. I love the gold cutout heels!

This is a good start!

Ode to the Cocktail Dress - Lela Rose Fall 2010

I have been sifting through photos from fashion week and as usual it's a little overwhelming. I thought I'd start with a winner - Lela Rose knows how to make a dress. Somehow, she created a collection with a lot of perfect knee-length or shorter dresses. Most of them are party-wear, but this first one would be perfect for work -



How cute is that one? And below, the BLUE! whoa. I LOVE the color, the v-neck, the bubble-ish skirt, I can just see it on everyone ALL THE TIME! was that effusive enough?



And this dress, I don't often think things this color are lovely, but this one is -




But this one makes me drool -






I adore this little black dress as well, it's perfection!


ah, the shine!




And last because I find it absolutely enchanting -

It's the perfect cream confection of a dress, the ruffle is beautiful. I would never gravitate towards a cream or white dress normally, but like all the dresses above, it is just gorgeous and I would wear it in a second. In fact, I wish I had events to wear them all to, sadly in Berkeley I would look very out of place in these dresses so all of you who have events to go to- when these hit the stores you must buy them!

If you are looking for anything, this is a good weekend to shop. Goldyn is offering a whopping 35% off everything on the site! Use code PRESIDENT. They manage to sweeten the deal by offering free shipping for orders over $100.

I LOVE this adorable jacket -

It would look great on pretty much everyone, works under a heavy coat as a layering piece in the winter and a lovely light jacket in the spring. And even better, it was originally $286, and now is under $90 - and even lower with the 35% off.

They also have interesting dresses -

This dress by Thurley looks like a throwback to the Great Gatsby, I love the detail on the straps and the draped fabric at the bust.

I also really like this T-shirt -

It's different, a nice slouchy t-shirt that doesn't look unkempt and again - this sale! It's just too great a deal to pass up!

Enjoy!
