Ana Gabbana

Dress, D&G. Cardigan, J.Crew. Necklace, street vendor. Pumps, Banana Republic.

So what's the story behind my most extravagant item of clothing by far and why don't I wear it more often? Let's just say it's made in Italy, thus a real size. It will not let me sit down, much less eat without cutting off my circulation. So if you know of any chic cocktail parties with little-to-no-food and no seating (a gallery opening, perhaps?), please let me know because the dress and I would love to go public with our relationship.

Yep, that (thrifted) Nanette Lepore of mine is similarly unforgiving. Silly designers. It looks great on you, though!

Heehee well if it's any consolation I have shoes that are my "sitting pretty shoes" because there is no way I can move, walk or dance in them. Plus you look beautiful in this colour combination- very elegant!
