Fashionistas on the world wide web tell me black lace is Hot this season. I guess I live under a rock, because I wasn't aware that black lace had ever gone out of style.
I do like these outfits, especially the Prada, although how anyone can look so grumpy wearing a $3,000 dress I will never know. Someone please slip these ladies an extra piece of pie at Christmas dinner.
All in all, I prefer Audrey-- here in the movie How To Steal A Million-- to any of the above:
Blair from Gossip Girl was rocking a pair of these tights in red last season, that I wanted SO badly... but I never did find them. If anyone has any leads, don't be shy, leave a comment.
My hunny is psychic, and the day I posted a black lace jacket in my shop, he randomly sent me this picture of Andrew Stockdale from the Australian band Wolfmother:
The black lace jacket, incidentally, sold in THIRTY SECONDS. I have never had anything go so fast in my life! Here it is... no longer up for grabs, I'm sorry to say:
Maybe I would have kept it if I'd seen this picture first (source unknown): finally, something to wear with those PVC tights! (You think I am kidding... but I'm not.) Of course I will have to stop making up excuses to skip pilates right now if this is going to be my New Year's get-up.
For those of you whose hunger for Black Lace must now be sated, there is an adorable black lace bolero that I just put in the shop. I love the "tropical" trim, and the brand: Pipe Dreams! Ha ha ha ha! Would anyone call something "Pipe Dreams" today? I wonder. No one glamorizes the beach bum, long-haired, slacker lifestyle like they used to.
Hope this has put you all in the Getting Fancy mood: there are office parties to rock, my friends. Get to it.
