Shiny Rose Elegant Dress

Updated May 15, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

It's a little early to be looking at winter clothes, I know. But I saw this Victorian Maiden OP and was in love! It would be a perfect special event dress. I'm loving the gray, but then again I always love gray. Also, if you are going to event where your lolita wear wouldn't be welcome I think this dress (and a lot of Victorian Maiden's stuff actually) can be made to walk that line gently.

wool fishtail applique skirt

Updated May 11, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

It's no secret I love retro things. This wool fishtail skirt would be something I wanted if it was just grey wool, to add appliquéd flowers to the 'tail' make it an unforgettable skirt. Plus, it's made to your size and custom garments always look better than off the rack.

1st Amendment T-shirt

Updated Apr 20, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Love, love, love this shirt! More people should be familiar with the constitution and what better way to silently show them than wearing it on a shirt. After all, I know I always try to read the print on people's shirts.

The Random House Dictionary of the English Language...Book Purse

Updated Apr 18, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

This purse is amazing. It's made from an old dictionary. I love that. It's an art purse that's big enough to use. Yay! Also, cool grey and a polka dotted blue pattern. The colors together are just amazing! It's just too perfect. In short, even though I just got a new purse...I'm tempted to get another.

Flapper Mini Dress

Updated Mar 15, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

I have this thing for vintage clothes...or a least vintage style clothes. I love playing with older styles. I think vintage is slightly the logical extension of playing dress up when you were little. And with this flapper mini dress you have all the glory of the roaring 20s along with a dress that is stylish today.

DKNY Full length silk dress

Updated Mar 14, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

A few years back my stepmother got my me the Lily Pulitzer cookbook. The recipes were nice of course, but the best part was the pictures. Old pictures of Lily from back when she was younger. One of the most memorable pictures of the book was one of her in an off the shoulder maxi dress, she looked so alive, so happy and the dress looked so right. This dress reminds me of it. It's a maxi dress that in the basic black, white and gray...except for that splash of pink. And it's that splash that make all the difference in the world.

Ola Embroidered Chiffon Maxi Dress

Updated Mar 14, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Here's a charming pleated chiffon maxi dress. I like the layering of greys in it. From the crinkled grey chiffon to the embroidered grey detail, it's a dress that is very smartly put together. Though, since it's made of silk I'd probably keep it away from the pool.

Joie "Roll The Dice" Floral Maxi Dress

Updated Mar 14, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

I'm not normally an orange fan, but there is something intrguing about this dress. I think with it's 70s styling I'm more ap to forgive i the orange. Either way, I like how airy this dress looks...it's long and uses who knows how much fabric, but it doesn't look like that.

SMET Women's Star Leggings in Charcoal

Updated Mar 12, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

These leggings are equal parts crazy and equal parts fun. And leggings like these would be perfect under a little denim mini. I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical upon return of the eighties trend, but it's growing on me. These leggings just look awesome!

Stirrup Leggings

Updated Mar 11, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

As a child of the 80s I can tell you that they one thing you can never have too many pairs of was stirrup pants. I vastly preferred them to jeans when I was younger and in fact I think it's part of the reason that leggings didn't bother me too much when they appeared on the scene again recently. Then I loved the way that stirrup pants meant you always had a clean line, now I think I love them for the same reason (and that they are warm!).

Pencil Skirt Jumper

Updated Mar 9, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Sit up and fly vintage. Or, at least that's what this pencil jumper reminds me of. I feel like I should be in a 40s movie with a killer pair of shoes. This jumper reminds me of being smartly dressed and that's always a god thing.

DKNY Swimwear : Dip Dyed Drape Tankini

Updated Mar 8, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Aesthetically I like bikinis, I think they are pretty and just fun all around. In practice I'm not so crazy about baring my tummy for the world to see and thus love tankini. And this dip dyed tankini is just my style. It progresses from white to gray to black and has a slight gather around the waist. This is a suit that would make me look forward to the lake.

Yoana Baraschi grey ombre chiffon polka-dot dress

Updated Mar 8, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

You might not be a printer, but that doesn't mean grayscale isn't still fun. This fun little chiffon grayscale dress is made better by the addition of itty bitty polka dots. I'm also really loving the straps on this dress it just looks like a fun and yet solid dress that is awesomely cute!

Dana Buchman - Ombre Silk Skirt

Updated Mar 6, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

If navy blue thrills you like it thrills me, you might find this ombre skirt to your liking. It takes my two favorite blues (navy and cerulean) and shimmers between them. Toss in a splash of grey, a skirt that hits below my knee and you have something that could become a summer staple for me!

Dkny Ombre Skirt

Updated Mar 6, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Ombre is not just for parties though. Say I wanted to bring a splash of ombre to work (casual fridays of course). Dkny ombre skirt might be just the thing. In work appropriate colors (ah, the glories of black and gray) and had a suitable length, I'm seeing this skirt with a black cardigan set (air conditioning makes offices cold in the summer!).

Cynthia Rowley Sincere Grey Heel

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

You know what they say about an over abundance of clothing sometimes being more intriguing than the naked form? Well, I completely understand what they mean. As such I have a tendency to enjoy the steampunk, victorian and even gothic lolita style. These shoes, with their grey flannel and lace and slightly shaped heel have me all a twitter. They don't show the toe, or even much of the foot, but I think encased in them, they would be gloriously intriguing.

Moschino Decorated Pumps

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Houndstooth for the win! Houndstooth means I always love it. Add a little bit of red, beading and flowers and though the pieces make the shoes sound like they might be old fashioned...they are really quite charming. In fact, I'd call them very anti-old fashioned. For some reason I see them with skinny stovepipe pants and almost punkish.

The first memory I have of my stepmother is a movie she took me to...it was Hocus Pocus. I know I should have been scared, but my only thought was those shoes are awesome! As such I rather enjoy it when witch shoes come back into fashion, they can be incorporated into fashion when there is a tiny bit of victorian influence.

Belle by Sigerson Morrison

Description

And what is a better harbinger of autumn than the pointy toed pilgrim heels. Now, I'm sure that the pilgrims didn't wear shoes exactly like this, but they'd be awful fashionable if they did! I like the laces and the warm grey suede color. But best of all, I like how they can be worn with tights and the best skirt of the season.

Mossimo® Debra Slash-Front Heels - Gray

Updated Feb 25, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

My shoes are not normal. They all have something extra about them. From my most recent pair of pucci print peep toe pumps to the ribboned ballet flats I wore to the store this morning, all my shoes have that little bit of extra. These grey heels with a "slash" front are a different. It's a shoe that can't decide quite what it is and that makes it a shoe definitely for me!

I'm liking covered platforms. It hides the fact that I'm on a bit of a platform and make it look like I'm on higher heel. (hee!) Plus in the subtle metallic grey of the season and the darling red sole of the Louboutin heel.

Christian Louboutin Crepe Satin Peep-Toe Pump

Updated Feb 25, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

I remember the first time I read about Christian Louboutin pumps. Some actress was saying how the only thing she couldn't "live without" where her Christian Louboutin shoes. I thought it silly at the time, but now I look at them and I get it. The sexy red soles. The always perfect sexy strut it inspires. And add grey and crepe and you have me hooked.

Description

This black, white and grey frock would be perfect for resort or summer wear. Sleeveless so it's not too warm, belted to make you not look too shapeless and knee length so it's plenty demur. I'm thinking is a glorious dress for a lazy warm day.

Porter Grey Velvet Scoop Dress

Updated Feb 25, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

As much as the last dress I recommended was all about confidence and being "grown up" this dress is all about being that innocent ingenue again. The baby doll waist, the scoop neck, the cute little flair. This dress in a glorious grey velvet lets you play a few years younger than you might be.
