Lingerie or Evening: MIST “3/4 Length Dress” @ YOOX.com

iconicon

Brand: MIST
Color: Beige (Also in Black)
Available at: YOOXicon
Price: $88.00 ON SALE!
Want It: Get your couture/luxury fill by browsing through YOOX’s sale on this/past season’s favorites.  This dress, regularly $175, is so much more affordable now!  It’s very simple, and I know my mom would insist this was lingerie, not a dress to be worn outside of the house.  But I do love the gold/beige tones of it, and how it falls so freely and airily against the model.

Nature Looks Good: Harkham “Treescape Pleated Tank in White-Almond” @ CoutureCandy.com

Treescape Pleated Tank in White-Almond

Brand: Harkham
Color: White-Almond (No other colors available)
Available at: Treescape Pleated Tank in White-Almond
Price: $216.00
Want It: Have you had your fill of clothes most people can’t afford?  Sigh, I never get enough of looking at them, though it does get a big rough on my heart to be unable to buy them by the truckload.  This print is just amazing, because it’s busy without being overwhelming.  I also love that it flatters the figure rather than distracts, since the design runs vertically.  The subtle brown tie at the waist/right under the bust is a great way to further emphasize the feminine figure, which, of course, I adore.

Button-Up Delight: Vanitas “Funky Short in Black” @ CoutureCandy.com

Funky Short in Black

Brand: Vanitas
Color: Black (Also in White)
Available at: Funky Short in Black
Price: $156.00
Want It: Some days I really wish I was rich beyond my wildest dreams–okay, I always wish that–but some days I wish harder than others.  Especially when I see these super stylish shorts with their ridiculously cute buttons on the pant leg.  I realize though that this length is probably ideal for those without thunder thighs, and in which case, I should be rather glad that these aren’t readily available to me…  Nonetheless, I love the detailing and style the large buttons add to it, as well as the bit of a cinch.

Sexy Jumps: Holly “Alex Short Romper with Puff Sleeves in Black” @ CoutureCandy.com

Alex Short Romper with Puff Sleeves in Black

Brand: Holly
Color: Black (Also in Shrimp)
Available at: Alex Short Romper with Puff Sleeves in Black
Price: $165.00
Want It: Holly designs this overtly sexy black jumper with a plunging V-neck, but I think it would be entirely workable for the more casual person.  It would be easy to add a tube top or tank top underneath to add a splash of color (and vary the ways you can wear this one-piece number).  I also think it cuts at a good length on the thigh - not too short or too long.  I just can’t get over how slinky this thing is, though - so sexy!

Dreaming of Snow: Via Spiga “Belted Walker Coat”

iconicon

Brand: Via Spiga
Color: Black
Available at: Macy’sicon
Price: $417.00
Want It: As a California girl, it is hard to imagine cold enough weather to really warrant a $417 wool coat, even if it isn’t floor-length.  The cut is phenomenal, however, which makes it worth looking into, even if it is only for window shopping purposes.  I mean, I am welcome to drool every time I walk by it, and it is okay to cuddle up within it before returning it to its hanger, right?  The belt is secure and snug, not droopy, which focuses attention on your gorgeous waistline instead of looking like a baggy, heavy winter coat.  I’ve always loved a good coat that does not bulk me up like I’m a bear getting ready for hibernation.  Tip on this one?  Find a knock-off or wait for the season to really start and this to perhaps find its way to a more navigable sale price.  Or save up.  Where’s my piggy bank?
