Giuseppe Zanotti vs Bakers

April 30, 2009

One of the most cre­ative and tal­ented shoe design­ers, Gisuppe Zan­otti offers a pair of amaz­ing pumps this time! Black patent pumps with gleam­ing black leather adds a shot of high-shine gloss to the sleek bump-toe pump, set on a con­trast­ing 1.25″ nat­ural cork and a ver­tig­i­nous 4.5” resin nee­dle heel, a dra­matic update of the clas­sic pump sil­hou­ette. They are avail­able at Chick­down­town:

There are always not enough sum­mer dresses for me :) This See by Chloe plaid cotton-voile shirt­dress with Peter Pan col­lar and 8-button clo­sure at front looks really cute. It’s avail­able at Shop­bop. I would pair it with flats or ankle boots, and you?

Tom Scott vs Forever21

April 29, 2009

When I found this nice rec­tan­gle top at Bar­neys I was like “hmm, great for sum­mer evening with jeans… but too expen­sive”. Sheer cot­ton blend three-quarter sleeve top with squared neck­line and side vents. Ribbed cuffs and hem. It looks very casual but styl­ish the same time. Then I was check­ing new arrivals at Forever21 and sur­prised by not less nicer but afford­able alter­na­tive top! This one has casual long sleeves and fea­tur­ing an all-over sheer burnout and ribbed knit trim. Compare:

Alexander Wang vs Nasty Gal vs Asos vs Forever21

I already posted about this amaz­ing mini dress so much favoured by celebri­ties. Slip into Alexan­der Wang’s body-contouring color-block stretch dress for a show-stopping look with plenty of 1980s atti­tude. For max­i­mum impact, mir­ror the run­way styling and team it with strong heels and a sim­ple clutch.
