Obsession of the Day – Ann Taylor Silk Button Tab Long Sleeve Shirt

by Irina on January 27, 2012

For the last few years I’ve been really feeling the attraction of cobalt blue. Not sure why, but I always feel magically attracted to anything that’s vibrant blue. And even though I’m mostly a dress girl, I couldn’t help but fall in love with this beautiful cobalt blue silk shirt by Ann Taylor. Just think of all the outfit choices you’d have with such a versatile yet statement-making shirt! You could pair it with classic black cigarette pants or breezy white flared linen pants to intensify the vibrant blue color. Capri pants, a pencil skirt or your favorite pair of jeans would go just as well with it. You could even consider wearing it bottomless if you feel particularly fashion forward/Lady GaGa-ish; I’m sure you’d still look A-class in it, though be warned, you might get some “Look at this pantless weirdo!“-stares from passersby. Anyway, did I mention I love this blue silk shirt? No really, I loooooove it.

Real vs. Steal – Sonia by Sonia Rykiel Polka Dot Denim Trench Coat

by Roseanne on January 14, 2012

The trench coat has become a wardrobe staple, and while it may be considered a basic, Sonia by Sonia Rykiel is adding a feminine and fun twist. Combing two of my favorites – polka dot print and stunning tailoring, the Polka Dot Denim Trench Coat is no longer just a coat but part of an ensemble. And ever since it’s beginning to rain more and more, this coat is ultimate for those awful rainy days while providing some energy. I am obsessed with this trench coat, but not so much with the price. Not to worry though, the steal is simply perfection!

Banana Republic Polka Dot Trench

Usually I would associate rainy and cloudy days with a depressing mood, but the Banana Republic Polka Dot Trench really makes me anticipate for this kind of climate. It’s the closest match to the real deal above, but is rather a much more budget-friendly and affordable version. At a mere $150, maybe rainy days have a purpose in fashion after all. Additionally, this trench is available in petite sizing.

Obsession(s) of the Day – Topshop Cable Beanie(s)

by Irina on December 20, 2011

So today I stumbled upon these cute 4 cable-knit beanie hats at Topshop and I can’t make up my mind which color is my favorite! I do love how the orange and the green one stand out, but the navy and grey versions are much more wearable and combinable. I do have a very similar beanie in grey, so this one’s pretty much ruled out, but the other 3? Tough choice, people. However, I secretly find myself gazing at the pumpkin version the most. Shall I go for that one?

Studio TMLS “Diamante” Platform Pumps

UPDATE (12/20/2011): And here’s another Daffodile knockoff! This one’s by Studio TMLS and I’m pretty sure this is basically just a rebranded version of the Topshop “SULTRY” pumps or the other way round.

Topshop “SULTRY” Snake Effect Platform Court Shoes

This “Sultry” pump by Topshop is barely registering the same eye-popping effects, but if you’re just dying to get your hands on a copy of the Louboutin Daffodile, then go ahead and drop a mere $180.

Steve Madden “VIKTOREE” Platform Pumps

Well, well, well. Leave it to Mr. Madden to give us a great knock-off with a twist. For what I’m sure is less than a quarter of the unknown (translation: if you gotta ask, you can’t afford it) price. At only $129.95, you can score this “VIKTOREE” buckle platform in a variety of colors: purple, black and blush suede as well as silver/lace.
