Steffy -Deco print top part 2 (2.6.13)
Steffy – Open Weave Sweater (1.18.13)
I hate seeing Steffy so sad. I think her new ‘condition’ has left her a little faint of heart. Which also means over-sized sweater time. I couldn’t find the exact Real Deal but here are a couple of great options. By the way, anyone else loving that Parisian apartment as much as I am?
Steffy – Asymmetric Dress & Foldover Clutch (12.27.12)
Steffy – ‘Leather’ pants (10.10.12)
Katie – Black & White Dress (5.18.12)
Let’s get to the dress. What do you think? Here’s what I like about it. I like the draping, the asymmetry, and the very unexpected way the contrast colors work; with the black on back wrapping forward into the bodice. What I don’t like about it. I think it’s about 4 inches too short on Katie on the shortest part of the hem, and the cut is, well, kind of unusual. Unless Katie is pregnant in real life (oops I just blew the story line), then this dress seems too baggy. Maybe it is supposed to be a looser fit, if so, I’m not a huge fan. Which is unusual because I LOVE Helmut Lang, and I also love how Katie looks in just about everything. Or maybe if the fit is intended to be looser then it may work better on someone like Carolyn or Steffy. I find myself wanting to love it, but I can’t. Maybe on Monday it will grow on me. Here’s the Real Deal:
Caroline – Bright Yellow Dress (5.14.12)
Steffy – Sheer Blue Top & Studded Boots (4.16.12)
Steffy – Knit Dress (4.2.12)
Steffy – Arc necklace (3.2)
This silver arc necklace is just enough to work with the off the shoulder asymmetry of Steffy’s top. The solid arc is a little broader than most arc necklaces you see with a pretty chain covering the other two-thirds of this necklace, complete with Tiffany’s style toggle clasp. Where is the ‘Real Deal’??? Still working on finding the original, here are some options in the meantime:
Update 3.9. The necklace is by Helmut Lang and available through their LA store. Click for Helmut Lang Store listing
