Jeweled Spine

October 11th, 2011

J.Crew Earrings, Karen Zambos Dress, Coach Clutch, Vintage Bracelet, Prada Heels

I was sold on this dress when I saw it just from the front. A classic a-line wool mini dress that’s appropriate even on the chilliest evenings. But when I saw it from the back, that’s when I fell in love. The jewels add such a special touch to an otherwise neutral piece and I love the unexpected drama it lends as you exit a room.

    What a glamorous departure!

    But for me, the backline would be too low.

    So lovely to see that you have such a strong sense of self style – and hoepfully inspiring others to dress to the beat of their own drum.
