Fall Trunk Shows

I can't believe there are already Fall trunk shows! We haven't even had a beach day yet! But that said - I can't ignore some of the cool clothes I'm seeing for fall. I love this M Missoni Metallic Striped Dress! And looks like something you could wear on a summer night in August, why wait until fall?? The colors and the sparkles are just great. Wish I had an event to wear this to.

Loving the Marc by Marc Jacobs Fall 2008 Collection

How cute is this little dress from Marc Jacobs for fall? Very retro looking (can we say 80s new wave?) and I love the opaque tights, shades, beret, and handbag.

Marimekko inspired Manolos

Manolo Blahnik's Spring/Summer 2008 Collection has some cute Mary Jane Slingbacks. Blahnik has used Marimekko’s patterns Bonbon and Mini-Unikko (which is the pattern shown) in his forthcoming collection.



I'm a little surprised the description of the shoes on Neiman's site doesn't mention that they are a Merimekko pattern?

Late last year Dolce and Gabbane produced a dress (and shoes) that looks almost exactly like this Marimekko pattern, but gave them no credit. Pretty strange. I don't know if anything happened about it - I haven't seen any updates on the web.

Who doesn't love Velvet?

What a cute Armani Collezioni dress for the holidays! ...and it's velvet. I love velvet. Velvet may be the best thing about winter. Well at least one of the best things. And it's stretchy to boot. Love it. Want it. Need it.

Want some Rocks with that Dress?

So I've been looking at Neiman's Resort collection and UM what's up with this dress? Normally I like Stella McCartney, but this dress - I just don't get.

It's like a bunch of rocks strangely placed on a dress. What is this pattern? Sure it's creative and different, but where would you wear this? And it looks like it's see through. You have to buy something to wear under it and who wants a dress under another dress - unless you're a slut and don't care and just wear it with nothing :P

Actually, looking at it closer it's fabric balls, not rocks. I don't like them. the only think I like about this is that it's silk.

New Resort Collections

Neiman's has the new resort collections on their site. Some really cute stuff for the holidays!

This Stella McCartney dress is so cute! I love the little sparkles - it looks casual yet super dressy. And it looks really comfortable.

I wish I had an event to wear this to

I really like this Nina Ricci dress.



The color and sparkle are really wild on this, with feathers! I'm not sure I've ever liked anything with feathers on it before. It looks like this dress would really catch the light nicely. Certainly a dress that would spark discussion.

This dress is way too expensive for me - $5,950.00 - WOW! I really need to find a better paying job! If I had a lot of money and fancy events to go to this winter I would be wearing this.
