High Fashion Friday

Milly Wiggle Strapless Paillettes DressFridays are for fashion...no not just fashion, high fashion!

Tis the season for holiday parties.  Yet trying to look fabulous in the middle of winter can be a challenge.  This Online Shopper has often struggled with what to wear to a holiday party.  Your skin is as fair as it will get, perhaps dry, you have likely put on a few pounds with the holidays, and not to mention it is cold out!  It is important to find a balance of warmth and style with your garments and dress your body for what it is now (not what you think that it could be after a diet and a tan).

This little number, the Milly Wiggle Strapless Pailettes, available at Bloomingdales for $225 (marked down from $375), is a great party dress!  For a work party, this Online Shopper would top off the dress with a fitted, black blazer, opaque black tights and black pumps.  For something less professional, loose the blazer and opt for black stockings.  As the sheen of the dress makes it a statement, less is more with the jewelry.  Try some large studs, and leave it at that. 

Happy  Holidays!

High Fashion Friday: Vince Camuto Faux Fur Vest

VINCE CAMUTO Faux Fur VestFridays are for fashion...no not just fashion, high fashion!

Happy Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week a/k/a New York Fashion Week Online Shoppers!  This weekend designers including Rebecca Taylor, Cynthia Rowley, Monique Lhuillier, and Diane Von Furstenberg will be showing their latest collections.  Whether you are in the front row at the shows, or checking them out via youtube, we can all keep our eyes out for the latest looks and soon-to-be trends.   

Thoughts of new fashion gracing the runways is all too inspiring for this High Fashion Friday post!  The Online Shopper is not a fur girl - but is coming around to be a fabulous-faux-fur girl.  In that regard, this Vince Camuto Faux Fur Vest available at Bloomingdales for $175.00, is fabulous!  (Plus Bloomies is offering $50.00 off for purchases over 100.00).  The Online Shopper loves the idea of wearing this vest as pictured - over a professional outfit - to work on a crisp fall day, or wearing it on the weekend with a pair of dark denim skinny jeans and a thin, vibrantly colored sweater.  The look is both cute and snugly, while being a but provocative and edgy.  Just fabulously high fashion.     

Online Shoppers - what do you think of faux fur?  Would you dare to wear real fur?
