Happy Monday everyone! Now that the blog has moved to it’s new home, I am *attempting* to get back to my regularly scheduled posts, including the weekly lust list! Even though I haven’t shared the items I am coveting the past few weeks, I most certainly still admiring these (and other) pieces! On to the latest:
Clothing:
As always, I have a thing for fun details. From the front, this Max Azria dress looks like a classic LBD. It’s simple. Timeless. Then, when you see the sheer chiffon back, you realize it’s perfect! So unexpected and so sexy.
I love the color of this Alice+Olivia Dress – some people would call it blue (me!). Others would say it’s purple. The silhouette is flattering, and the back – the beautiful draping and that strap – make it fun and different.
Full disclosure: as a size 12/14, I have yet to find a pair of leather pants that I think look good on me. However, in my dream world, these BALMAIN leather skinny pants would be that pair. The cut is flattering, and the zipper detail make them stand out from the rest.
Continuing the “sexy back” theme, this Pencey backless top would be great for a night out.
Take a close look at this Marc by Marc Jacobs Sweater. The material looks fun, right? Could you tell that it’s made out of woven black and white sequins?! I would wear this everywhere. Work. Date night. Shopping.
I’m a huge fan of L.A.M.B. I love Gwen Stefani’s look, and I love the aesthetic of her designs. These black rounded toe suede wedges would be a great wardrobe addition for the fall.
These speak for themselves. Straight from Marc Jacobs Spring 2011 runway show…. look at that amazing snake. Genius. Absolute genius.
These edgy sandals, meanwhile, are from Jason Wu’s show.
Of course, I can’t compile a lust list without a pair of boots. These Kors Michael Kors Boots tackle the boot/sock trend in a great winter color.
Now, on to jewelry… I love the look of mixed metal. I also have a soft spot for Gemma Redux’s designs. This piece is different from the tangled chain necklaces she is generally known for.
Stunning earrings, worn by a stunning woman. The beautiful Freja Beha Erichsen wore these beauties at Oscar de la Renta’s Spring 2011 Show.
Finally (and much more affordable than the rest!), is this Alex and Ani Space ring. Gold-plated recycled metal with a unique stone and setting. Definitely a statement ring.
What about you – are you finally ready for the Fall, or still hanging on to the last signs of summer?
