Dolce Vita's Cage Heel
Pretty sure I am going to return this even though Endless.com offered an incredible deal for $114. I like how it is styled in the pictures, but I can't seem to recreate the magic on my own.

Zara's Ruffle Coat
I don't think I like this enough to wear it much, though it is growing on me. Works better as a coat dress than a coat. Would love to see this in cream, which would accentuate the ruffles more.

Mike & Chris "Maxwell" Leather Jacket
Singer22.com is bringing back the jacket that put Mike & Chris on the map. I got it for 10% off during the site's Halloween sale. Wanted to photograph it after I upgrade my camera, but couldn't wait...

Create Magic

Sometimes all you need to create the magic is 'TUDE....(attitude) so think that you're hot and rock those shoes! Short skirt is better than the skinny jeans I think. The shoes also have a bad girl look to them so if you dont have a zippered skirt, perhaps a leather jacket? You can also add some jewelry to pull it all together if you do want to go sans jacket. Have you thought of red mini dress?

Wow, that was quick! Thanks for the input
I love the strappy look; here it almost makes the shoe look like a boot heel. I don't think I can weather the attention of a red mini dress! I was thinking of wearing it with this Phillip Lim dress for a concert in LA in December.

Just ordered this basic black t-neck dress from AA:

I think it will look great under my S.W.O.R.D. leather jacket with tights and Pedro Garcia booties. I am really starting to love AA for basics, though many of their pieces are similarly cut to The Row, and I prefer that label for those.

LOL a "t weather the attention of red" you're funny. I understand though. That yellow dress might look a tad too summery? My two cents.

a.p.c. madras winter!

i hit up the winter a.p.c. madras collection

View attachment 409713

View attachment 409714

the jersey dress i got is actually a lovely golden brown color, but they only show the violet one online. there are actually quite a few variations on the pieces that are only in the store. i had ordered the plaid dress online and it was wayyy too small so i went to the store to return it. it's just cut very narrow so i ended up with a small in the jersey dress and a large in the plaid dress.

there are still a few more things i really want from this collection, i <3 a.p.c.!!!

 

[rochasfille]

Zarina, I considered the Day leggings but chose the Les Chiffoniers instead. I am sure you will rock yours!!!

Diabless has nice stuff usually
