Isabel Marant

uhm...guilty as charged...

the good news is that yoox has much more available then ever before.

I'm sure the high prices are a combination of popularity and weak dollar. I also noticed huge price fluxs from store to store.

I bought this Etoile dress last night.

^ I quite like the neckline and fabric of that dress, but for me, I'd worry about where the pockets fall ... they'd probably be at my waist. Let us know how it works out lucky!

I got these etoile pants (photo credit shopjumelle.com). I've been needing a pair of slouchy cropped pants for a while, and these really fit the bill for me. I'm not sure I love the elastic waist, but I wouldn't be tucking anything in, so it's not a problem for me.

you know, despite the fact that everything is always sold out, I never see anyone wearing any of it! in any case, it doesn't bother me much. IM and Dries are the two brands that really speak to me. the main line prices bother me for sure ... but more and more, I'm finding a lot in the etoile line that I really love, and those prices have been tolerable for me.

tourist, I those pants, I purchased them in the tan. the pockets sit low and the linen is nice and thickish. such a staple these days for me.

even though these werent produced it appears that she signed a pair and displayed them in the Paris store window...possibly the shoe of my dreams and of course they are unattainable.

ooohhh lord... they produced them... drool!!!

 

[tourist10]

lucky - I love them too! I've already worn them several times since I got them, they fit perfectly into my wardrobe. Those heels are amazing, thanks for posting ... did you ever get the wedge version from Satine?

 

[luckyme]

aren't those pants great? I hope they never wear out (I wear them at least once a week)...

as far as the heels go, all I hear is that nothing like that shoe was produced but I sent out emails to all my contacts with the picture hoping someone has them. I think they were talking about a different wedge. such a bummer.

^ oh, don't say that, I'm still suffering from a pair of pants that expired 2 years ago. That's too bad about the heels, they are very you.

i just got this skirt from c of c. I should probably steam it a bit? It is sort of short for me...i have the similar grey wool fall 2007 skirt and this is shorter. I really love the pockets and thick linen!

i'm not a huge fan of this season but im really loving those pants lucky me has! i'm hoping i can find those somewhere. can you post some shots of you wearing them? i am really wanting to see them in person!

also the sudden isabel marant all over teen vogue and seeing their styling is weird and making me lose some love...but whatever, i guess. i don't see others wearing it around here either.

 

[stealthmodesteph]

Great skirt! The weight of the fabric looks so yummy!

 

[mode]

i love that skirt! great purchase

 

[tourist10]

such a cute skirt! i love the fabric as well, but wow, it sure it short. very cute on you though

 

[monoshade]

thanks, all! i love the texture also...that is the best part! i'm hoping i will get used to the length...esp w/not tights during the summer.
also, just realized and sort of embarrassed that i asked lucky me and not tourist about the pants...sorry about that.

Wow it looks great , I tried it it didn't fit me, It was way too short, not short like in you but short that you could see my bum and very large around the waist. But I love it on you.

Those heels are gorgeous.

 

[luckyme]

monoshade, no worries, we both got them in different colors. but, let's talk about those legs and that skirt...just fabulous!!

if those heels are there when I'm in Paris I may resort to down on the knee begging. B)

 

[lemeray]

I need those shoes!

A $1,000 dress to an outdoor music festival I would not wear... but slightly jealous...

[luckyme]

wow, thanks SMS, those are actually very tempting but I agree about the heel.

there are a bunch of new additions to see from last spring on yoox right now.

 

[tourist10]

is it me, or are these not the exact sandals but the flat version?

looking at the shoe at the storefront more carefully, it does look like a Guiseppe Zanotti label
