Back in the Day: Very Valentino

Vintage Very Valentino circa 1992, starring Linda Evangelista.  And they're awesome.  The lip liner, not so much.

Disney Couture: An Oxymoron?

o, Disney is venturing into "couture." Riiiight. Somehow I suspect that Kidada for Disney Couture strays from what the French artisans, fournisseurs, milliners and ateliers have defined as couture. But that's neither here nor there, when you can snap up the cartoon-inspired, starlet-endorsed jewelry line at Kitson.

New York's "Look Book"

'm fairly certain that being featured in New York Magazine's "Look Book" is a goal for much of the city's population. I have a fairly concise mental outline of how I would describe my look. But that's neither here nor there.

Once again, I was not selected, but lip-synching, self-described "muse" Andre J was. While the afghan is certainly notable, I am more interested in the vintage Lanvin shades.

It turns out that vintage Lanvin shades are available at one of my favorite sites, PatriciaField.com. They also feature vintage styles by Burberry, Valentino and Versace. ALL FOR $60. LOVE.



Color: Rose
Cost: $60
Retailer: PatriciaField.com

Astonishingly priced vintage finds aside, my favorite part about P.F.'s site is her return policy:

Sunglasses Return Policy:

We understand the need to try on glasses, therefore all sunglasses are returnable within two weeks of purchase for a full credit card refund, minus the cost of shipping.

How perfectly reasonable! Guess who's getting herself some new flash?
