Having been rather obsessed with pink lately, and always on the lookout for cute summer dresses, I found Elizabeth Hurley's outfit at Valentino quite divine:
(Just a word to the wise, though; if you're not Elizabeth Hurley, bubble hems and ruffles on enormous boobs will probably not do you any favors.)
In different light the dress looks purple, but this orchid-y hot pink interpretation was the picture I was working on. So, for your clearance shopping pleasure (most are on final sale!) here are the very cutest, cheapest little pink minidresses out there:
Aren't they stunning? And soooo cheap.Sweet.
Liz paired her lovely floaty dress with some (vaguely metallic) leopard-print platforms. Leopard goes with everything and is a fantastic counterpoint to the brightly-hued dress. Check out these inexpensive (under-$35) versions (also mostly on clearance so limited sizing is an issue):
I kind of love those slutty ankle-strap ones, from a site I've never heard of called MakeMeChic... They are 'coincidentally' only still available in my size (6.5). It's like a sign, right??
I trust you can find your own clutch or use one you own (I have a leopard pony one with optional chain that I picked up at a church yard sale) but in case you want some inspiration, some of the options reminiscent of Liz's nude exotic-skin clutch, all under $40:
Enjoy these picks & let me know if you end up purchasing any of them!
Happy shopping for the look for less!
Make Me Chic is a great site for finding knock-offs of the current trendy shoes. They had a nearly identical copy of Zanotti's $1,500 zipper booties for less than $50.
ReplyDeleteI am definitely a fan of girly, feminine Barbie pink paired with an edgy leopard print. It's a fun combination. :)
