Skirt Stalker

-- skirt: Moschino Cheap & Chic --- vest: Sisley -- satin blouse: from Manila --
-- belt: Calvin Klein -- bib necklace: from Manila -- pumps: Louboutin --

If this skirt had feelings, it probably would have already issued a restraining order against me. Why wouldn't it? I know I would if somebody stalked me every single day for the 3 straight weeks!

When it eventually went down to a price point to my liking (aka: sale), I snagged it right away. And now its mine, all mine!!

Why would they call it "cheap & chic" when it's just chic and far from cheap??

I demand a further markdown from such misleading branding! =)

Wishing everyone a fabulous work week!

The Tale of the Halter Skirt

-- halter top: Carmen Marc Valvo (skirt) --- vest: Sisley -- jeans: Lucky Brand
-- belt: Calvin Klein -- flats: Ferragamo Varina -- purse: Prada Vit. Daino --

Once upon a time there was a frilly skirt that magically turned into a flouncy halter top....

***

One of the good things about blogging is getting a lot of creative ideas from other bloggers! Last weekend, I was in the mood for some fashion experimenting and decided to wear this Carmen Marc Valvo skirt here as a top.

I opened the zipper to create the v-neck, belted it to make it less flouncy and added a vest for some structure and voila!

Had lunch at "Spill the Wine".
I had grilled salmon over tossed salad in raspbery vinaigrette dressing while the hubz had a lamb gyro & potato chowder. For dessert, we had banana wanton with vanilla ice cream in cinnamon sugar sauce and yumm, it was good!!!

...and so the halter skirt and the girl lived happily ever after. THE END.

Happy mid week everyone!!

A Big Smile and a Bigger Sigh

-- top: Vera Wang Lavender Label --- vest: Sisley -- tights & earrings: Forever 21 --
-- chain bracelet: Banana Republic --shoes: Saks Fifth Ave --

The hubz is already running out of subtle ways in telling me to stop shopping. Today, when I got home and he saw my "goodies", I smiled a BIG smile and he just shook his head and sighed a big sigh.

I like the long bow at the back of this top. It betrays the edgy vibe that's going on in the front and reveals the girly-girl that's truly me!

Happy mid-week everyone! The weekend's just around the corner!!
