Blair Waldorf "Captain" Dress

First to recommend

8 people recommended this item

Description

It's important to dress for the occasion, and when I'm about to be flown to the continent by my 16 year old boyfriend, it's nice to wear a nautical themed dress ($125 at bluevelvetvintage.com).

Fairchild & Co Black Diamond Ring

Delicate granulated gold and black diamonds - sober wedding ring or flashy accent for the stylish widow? You decide. ($4125 at Fairchild & Co)

Jones Bootmaker Swing Heels

First to recommend

Description

Made from soft kid suede, these kicky 1950's-style heels are made to look hot new and worn out from the dance floor. Why can't they make them like this anymore? These are classics from Jones Bootmaker in the UK, who've been cobbling in London since 1857, but they'll FedEx to the States. (about $60 from Jones Bootmaker)

Matthew Williamson Quilted Cropped Jacket

First to recommend

Description

This is the ultimate luxury item; sexy, elegant, beautifully cut, and completely pointless! But isn't it so hot? The line it creates is flawless. Perfect for the girl with a sugar daddy or a forgiving landlord. ($1375 at Net-a-porter)

3.1 Phillip Lim Lace and Sequin Dress

First to recommend

Description

This is just a perfect little party dress, and it's not the kind of piece that goes out of style. Ladies have been wearing these since the 50's, plus or minus a couple inches on the hemline - which ought to make you feel better about the price tag (you could fly to San Francisco TWICE on Jetblue for that!) ($895 at Net-a-porter)

Mayle Chain Handle Leather Handbag

First to recommend

Description

I'm not a huge "bag" person - and I wouldn't spend the rent on one - but if you could afford it, wouldn't you just love a little buttery black patchwork and gold number like this that just SPITS luxury? Me too.

Metallic Color Block Dress

First to recommend

Description

It may seem impossible to use "gold and silver lame" and "understated" in the same sentence, but this dress somehow pulls off both. The metallic combination is sexy, playful, and extremely flattering, plus the whole look is reminiscent of those crazy metallic dresses M.I.A. is rocking all over the place - see the "Jimmy" video. (on sale for $32.99 at Fred Flare)
