When does a touch of gold become too much gold? Oh let's say when it's a gilded leather shoulder bag and gold flats. Gold flats??? See, some trends deserve to die. There is nothing sadder than a woman with less than a gazillion dollars trying to make iffy trends last longer than a season. The woman at Whole Foods (you know her) in a quilted black Hilary Radley jacket (see can't afford Burberrys... wait, doesn't even know it originally was Burberrys) with a bad Laura Bush haircut, jeans that sag in the butt and last year's cheap gold ballet flats. Yuck. The way to be cool is to go totally against mainstream. If everyone is wearing matte black, why the hell aren't you wearing multicolor stripes in Lurex? If they all say to wear a babydoll, you need to sport an ankle length dress with Ann Demeulemeester boots and cheap Delancey Street sunnies. Don't get your ideas from a magazine. Cut yourself off from the evil media influence and conjure up new styles that have not been spoon fed to you by outside influences. Do you really think Diana Vreeland was taking cues from the pages of a women's magazine selling by the supermarket checkout? Crissa Linea Italia's fresh take on the classic sweater dress. A medium weight fat acrylic and wool knit with gilded stripes of plum, fuchsia, mahogany, emerald and gold on a silver background. High jewel neckline and skinny skinny skinny sleeves, it zips at the upper back. Bust measures 36" max, shoulder to shoulder 13.5", outer sleeve 24". waist 26" max and length 60". Excellent condition - now go forth and be different. sold |
