I Want This Dress!

By -
My favorite local boutique is selling last year's version of this dress. The only difference is it's flat navy and has more of a bubble in the skirt. It was on my Christmas list, but never materialized under the tree. While it may not look like much in this picture, it's a dream dress. The empire waist creates a flattering silhouette. The cut makes it perfect for layering with long sleeved tops or jackets. Best of all, it's made of a super soft sweat shirt jersey; so you can look uber fab in a simple shift and still be couch potato comfy. The "Lucy" is on sale at French Connection for $99.99.

I love Miu Miu's harlequin themed show from Spring Summer 2008, especially this sweetly sexy striped mini dress. Kensie created a cute green version that's more wearable for everyday life.

Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.

Jean Paul Gaultier's runway promoted one of my favorite fashion looks: pinstripes with a delicate, feminine print. He had high-waisted pants, suspenders, lingerie elements, lace, sheer fabrics, softly geometric designs, and monochrome dominated, much to my glee. His menswear-inspired looks are a testament to how graceful the style can be. Christian Lacroix also paid homage to menswear with pieces inspired by matadors and soldiers. The complete collection wasn't cohesive, but even the breaks from theme were lovely. It's hard to argue with so many colors, ruffles and embroidery. Plus, I want that polka dot coat!
