A creme coloured silk top by designers remix

Boat neck with sleeve similar (albeit not as huge) to this topshop dress:

I had hoped I would be able to find a picture of it on their site...but ofcourse it was nowhere to be found..

^speaking of the top shop dress.. I was told it was just a show piece and that they never made any in that colour.. Any brits know if the danish SA was fibbing ?

Beautiful Stranger · 01-03-2007

I love the top, hanne! Especially the sleeves. Will probably look fantastic with black skinnies and some heels.

fashionista-ta · 01-03-2007

Frankie, love the cardigan coat!!

LVizo, I thought the fit on the jeans was a bit loose, but bottom line, what we think doesn't matter, what you think does

I'm not wild about the Marni.

Beautiful Stranger · 01-03-2007

I know ta-ta, but i'm not sure at all.But i think.. i think i've decided to sell them and buy the Marni. But still not 100%.. hmm.

If you really want the brooch set I think you should get it. It's more special, and I bet it would bring you more happiness than a simple pair of jeans!

Well, my 3.1 Phillip Lim dress arrived today, of course I have no proper camera for the rest of the week...but I tried to take a webcam pic for everyone...didn't turn out too well!!

It's really nice and comfy and floaty but it's SO hard to get on...it had two layers and it's just soooo much fabric, I need a dressing assistant!

So anyways, here is my teaser picture, I will post a real picture when I get my camera back.

Spinny-spin-spin...

Frankie - I love the French Connection cardigan coat - I bought 2 of them this winter one bitter chocolate like yours and another in grey. They are really chic and I got a lot of compliments on it!

On Tuesday, I bought a Hermes Birkin size 30 with Palladium Hardware in Blue Jean (its quite a strange colour sometimes I feel its horrendous

and at others really unique and beautiful

...maybe buying it was a lapse from my normal good taste

.

Today, having ummed and errerd over a very pretty Balenciaga dress and a gorgeous satin Prada top - I remembered my Mum asking me yesterday whether I really needed any more clothes?? So I went and bought a new chic bandeau bikini from Eres because I really do need some more swimwear!! That said I might just have to get the Prada top...

I have never worn derek lam but saw that cool vest and must have gotten lucky because I was able to pre-order it on nm.com. I ordered a 4 since it says it is loose fitting and I usually wear a 6 US. does his sizing run roomy or true, maybe if it doesnt fit me it will fit you?

I just picked up my vest from a local boutique here and its SUPER SUPER FAB.

guccigal07 · 01-03-2007

LV-my line of thinking on this.

you will wear the jeans more...but jeans are always around.

the Marni pieces are special pieces you wear less but might not always be around.

however maybe you can get cool things on ebay...even Marni or Prada and save some and get the jeans too!

Guessgirl96 · 01-03-2007

Kisa, the dress looks so so great on you.

Grill, which pradatop are you getting?

sarah13 · 01-03-2007

Hi Guessgirl.. I am seriously considering gettting the top pictured but in pale beige or black. It looks a bit weird on this girl on the catwalk though - I loved it when I tried it with slim black jeans. Pic style.com

guccigal07 · 01-03-2007

grill. I like it too. is it $$? the only thing about prada...is I always find it on ebay. esp iif NM did it.....but its a nice classic!

luckyme · 01-03-2007

Grill, don't hesitate, it's very beautiful.

here is a picture i snapped of the junya jacket i just bought. too bad the back isn't visible but there was no way i could have shot that view. the mirror didn't appear to have spots on it until i saw the photograph, too lazy to clone out since i do that all day. the leather pants are from the past season of junya.

laika · 01-03-2007

luckyme, I have to say, that jacket looks better on you than on the runway!
It's softer somehow, even with the leather pants (which you absolutely rock

)
Just amazing--thanks so much for the pic! So inspiring to see Junya stuff in action.

Adorefaith, your dress is beautiful!
I have just got this dress from my tailor. It is inspired by drawings from the 50's and she made it for me.
Also bought a cat suit with belt by Malene Birger (pic from mywardrobe)
White summer jacket by H&M
