Suits Up

Who doesn’t love the dress and jacket suit ensembles that Christian Lacroix sends down the runway every Haute Couture season? So en vogue! Wearing a set would be sure to impress those who need to be impressed or for those days when you just feel like being fancy. However, you can have a more modern and simple set for a fraction of the price of Lacroix’s genius. Zambesi’s jacket and dress is exquisite when paired together, but that is not the only option you have; the rendezevous cropped jacket, $569, would look great with a pair of skinny jeans, a great simple top, and heels for a laidback cocktail. The matching corkscrew dress, $489, is simply chic when paired with a pair of Karen Walker sunglasses, perfect for work or a Sunday brunch.

The Only Walker I Want to Use When I am 64

Karen Walker deserves an award for being so cool and debuting the most awesome eyewear to ever hit the market. Walker’s rims are some of the hottest ever, especially the Hectors. The large square frames with super thick arms are likely to have people confuse you with Nicole Richie. However, the tan lenses that slightly fade at the bottom will clear up all of the confusion. Get them and get them now for $170.

Onesies

Karen Walker

The term onesie no longer only refers to footed outfits sported by gurgling babies and sized by the number of months.  The ultra femme adult version (minus padded feet) is affluent this summer with coy looks by Karen Walker, Stretsis, United Bamboo, and Daryl K.  It’s the perfect quirky alternative to a summer dress.  When you’re not up to sitting pretty, crossing those soon to be sun tanned stems, or digging for that matching blouse, shimmy into a onesie, slip on a pair of pumps and you’re all set!
