Miu Miu gets me again

My heart is racing. I am dying over these Miu Miu leggings, DYING. Of course they will be knocked off by Forever 21 immediately, but if you're going to rock the sequins they have to be quality people. I can only imagine how beautiful these are IRL. Priced at $1495, imagining is going to have to get me by for now...

So here is my IRL outfit from Saturday! Of course I looked much better at the beginning of the day than at 5:30 when Jenn snapped this pic...so be gentle...

Outfit of the Day!

Spring has sprung here in Westfield, NJ! We are expecting temperatures in the mid 7o's today and that means it is FINALLY time for bare legs and DVFs. Today I wear the Diane Von Furstenberg Wonder Woman dress and my trusty sapphire Balenciaga. Ah...welcome back sunshine! I promise to post IRL (in real life) pictures ASAP.

I read one meelllion fashion blogs a day. Okay, so maybe not that many or that often but I do have a ton bookmarked and I always read the back posts that I've missed. Checked in with Garance Dore last night and I saw my beloved Miu Mius! I have only worn my pair once - to the Westfield Couture Exchange grand opening party!!!

So, what makes this picture so special? First - the wash on her denim. Isn't is refreshing to see something other than the dark overdyed jeans we've been wearing non-stop? Yes, many fashionistas are picking up acid wash but this looks much fresher, especially for the season. The cuffs are delightful. Of course her LV special addition is the cherry on top. It takes a sparkly sparkly lady to pull off 5 inch (unplatformed) sequined shoes with a bag of that magnitude! Wish we could see the rest of the ensemb.

A few things caught my eye in this photograph from the recent NY fashion week...

Notice the vintage Gucci bag is still a strong choice. This is one classic that works with any trend and appears season after season. I still pull out my navy signature clutch and brown signature doctor's bag...and the doctor's bag was my mother-in-laws first so it's definitely gotten a lot of wear between the two of us. We have a navy sig shoulder bag in an unusual shape, as well as a navy doctor's bag in our Westfield showroom!

Another exciting think to take from this photo is the pop of color. Most women would wear a monochromatic outfit with a bright shoe, but not this young lady!! She is working it from another angle, getting more use out of her versatile gray boots and rocking the red legs. An inexpensive bright legging or pair of tights can really update a look.
