Georges Chakra

I would usually say I don't care for the one shoulder dress, but the design of the longer sleeve and the fabric is wonderful. Where would I wear this stunner?

Gaultier to Die For



Jean Paul Gaultier is THE French haute couture and amazing Pret-a-Porter designer. These two pieces for LaPerla are just to ache for. Unfortunately, the prices are so couture sky high, untouchable in my lifestlye today. It's fun to dream about being a sultry princess in these, just relaxing no lounging around the house.
 
La Perla, the Italian house of amazing lingerie allowed Gaultier to create something fantasy. The craftmanship on the silk is butterfly light on the top piece and the ruffled swirls on the lower one, well dreamy is all I can describe. I looked in South Coast plaza and the La Perla store doesn't have them in yet....

Casual outfits

I Love the purse and scarf. Camel long cashmere jacket is pretty but I don't like the patch pockets and boxy frame, it made me look like a little boy. Women's clothing should feel great, and even a coat can be feminine.


My daughter adores vertical stripes, and they work on her tiny frame somehow. I can see myself wearing this long gauzy shirt, perhaps with less jewelry...

Elie Saab Blue crystal gown






ELIE SAAB Fall 2011 (also fondly known as E S )
I love his gowns. I don't have occasions to wear them, but so fun to look.

I have a couple organdy /organza beaded dresses. I searched for short dresses that give the feeling of this but there is nothing as spectacular as a column of solid color flows from your feet

Dress Up

Party dresses remind me of fun times, but sometimes it is good to dress up at home.
Hand Beaded silk skirt




Silk velvet silk lace 1950's dress





I purchased this dress from Marilyn Monroe's estate many years ago and have worn it a couple times. I wore it to a Queen's Garden Party and to a punk rock concert. There is hand beading on the bodice over lace, tule nettin fairy skirt, silk underlays that float.




Hand beaded 1950's simple sheath dress I wore this pregnant with my first child

 This dress was also purchased from Marilyn Monroe's estate many years ago. I have only worn it once. The skirt is fuller than a circle but the silk and organdy are so fine it lays flat when standing
