Best of Ebay!

Ok, I'm attempting to start a semi-regular column here, folks. When I feel so inclined, I'll share with you some of the current best Ebay deals. All you have to do is search for them (not sure if I can legally put the seller's info on my site). Ready? GO!

The first one is DVF and if it wasn't an XS I'd be bidding on it myself. Currently it's under $10! Current bid...$10.49! And it comes with the tags still on, which considering the tag says its worth $600+ is one hell of a bargain

On the left is a GORGEOUS See by Chloe (drool) top, which again, is missing my bid due to tininess. Current bid...$15.00

Finally we have this cute coral tunic, perfect to throw on at the pool or beach, or to wear with a belt out on the town! Current bid...$7.49.

So there you go. Bid on them now before they go, because I GUARENTEE they will.

Did I spell guarentee right?

Seriously...kaftans?

Hello all! Apologies abound for my absence, but I have good reason! I was sidetracked for most of May by the fashion show the boutique I work for put on. It turned out AMAZING, and while I didn't get to see the actual show (I was backstage furiously changing models and making sure they have jewelry on and their boobs were inside the clothes), my boss was thrilled with it, so that made it all worth while.

Anyways, summer is on! It's already getting hot and muggy here in Northern VA, and while I dread those sticky days of July and August, it's just the right temperatures to have the windows open and let the cool night breeze enter my room. Aaahhhh..

But of course, new summer clothes are all over the place, some gorgeous, and others...well...let's just say I'm a little surprised by the number of designers sending kaftans down the runway. First of all, those things can only be worn by the smallest percentage of the population: Skinny girls (cause anyone bigger than a 4 would look lumpy in one), and girls who live in Miami or the Hamptons. That's it! And secondly, I can't believe that beach wear popularized by older women living in Palm Beach is supposedly back in fashion! Ugh. But let's take a look at said kaftans anyways.

The kaftans are by (Left to Right, top row first): Diane Von Furstenberg, Oscar de la Renta, Michael Kors, Matthew Williamson, Missoni, Pucci, Alice Temperley, Diane Von Furstenberg, and Antik Batik. My favorite is definitely the Matthew Williamson one, it reminds me of some romantic Victorian country dress. If it was just a foot shorter it could be so deliciously wearable...ah well. The DVF and Missoni ones aren't too bad, but the Pucci and de la Renta ones look took Palm Beach for me, and the Michael Kors one looks like a kimono. I just don't get it...

Moving on, bigger pictures of the dresses can be found at my fave web-window shopping spot, net-a-porter.com. I hope I'll have the inspiration to get back to regular posting, but inspiration is a fickle muse, dears.

Laters.
