I dropped by
Drew Lewis yesterday and picked up a dress by Sass & Bide. I completely forgot that I'm supposed to go to Las Vegas tomorrow for a jewelry show and thought it would be go perfectly (as well as fit perfectly into my whole "vampire" theme come fall). It's made out of this polyester material that pretty much repels all liquids, which works perfectly for me as I'm a magnet for spills. Expect lots of outfit pics in a few days.
I also got some of the lowdown for some of the designers they'll be sure to carry come fall, and I got really excited for this one designer called
Daughters by Obedient Sons. Their look for the fall is "Holden Caulfield starting a punk band," according to style.com. Here are some looks that I liked:
I also got this very beautiful pin in the mail today. After reading
Professionally Trendy's entry on
steampunk, I ended up seeing some of
Rivkasmom's work on Etsy. The next thing I knew, I had fallen in love with this pin. It came beautifully packaged with a little organza pouch. I can't wait to wear it to Vegas!
Thanks for the info on Obedient Sons & Daughters reference. I'd never heard of them before, but anything reminiscent of J.D. Salinger is okay by me ;)
And, of course, Yea to Etsy!
