Dressed Up to Get Lucky - Outfit #3
Before we discuss my third - and possibly best - entry for Lucky’s “My Denim Transformation” Stylist Challenge, let’s talk about this blazer. Last January on my birthday, my uber fab mother and I hit Fisch for the Hip, where she immediately zeroed in on this Marc Jacobs number. Originally priced at $600 or so, it was still a splurge at its re-sale price. While I can’t recall the exact number, it had to have been offensive enough that Mom had to physically force me out of my coat and into the garment. I pretended not to want it; she pretended not to hear me.
“It’s your birthday,” she hissed at the time, “You will thank me later.” Of course, she was right. So thank you Mommy, for forcing this MJ blazer upon me on my 24th birthday. (If I wasn’t a stereotype before that last sentence…)
To my label whore’s dream of a blazer (and to the same F21 jeans, obvs), I added the following:
BCBG teal, ruched tank (snagged for $19 at the Atlantic City Outlets); bizarreslashunique, pearl button-embellished, gray sweater tank (Beacon’s Closet, like ten bucks); clip-on rhinestone/faux onyx earrings (P.S. Flea Market, $5); Guess pumps I’ve had fo eva (fo eva meaning two years plus).
I think we have a winner here, dolls. Your thoughts?

Kvelling and Kvetching

@ 11:46 am on October 29th, 2008I love that gray top, but I really think you should try it with your Superfines.
@ 5:01 pm on October 29th, 2008Love the silhouette - with those great, exaggerated shoulders. But I still like outfit #1. Just being honest, lady.
@ 7:34 pm on October 29th, 2008i think this is the best of the three outfits. love the peek of color and layering. but i think solid colored shoe might be better than patterned.
@ 7:37 pm on October 29th, 2008The best of the three, for sure.
