50 Classics Challenge


For this week of the classics challenge I paired a 100% silk day dress with heeled sandals. A dress like this is how you can wear green and red together without looking like you belong in a Christmas greeting card (despite the ornament-like print). Playing up a non-Christmas color helps offset the otherwise holiday specific color combo.



All this look needs is a tan and a jacket.

The navy blazer below--which I do not own :(--would complete this look.

Leighton Meester Blair Waldorf wore this dress in the Gossip Girl season 5 opener, "Yes, then zero." I actually hunted it down after seeing it on the show. Although she is a character on a show, Blair is my fashion icon.


Have you ever hunted down outfits you see on television?
Who is your fashion icon?
 Outfit details:
Bottega Veneta heels, Moschino dress, YSL arty ring

  5. I always assume clothes people wear on TV are impossible to find and I never look. I'm always super impressed when someone does find something. Props to you.

  7. Wow i'm loving the colour of the YSL ring! I saw it on NAP I think, and was thinking of getting it, however decided against it... but now seeing it paired with greens and reds, i'm regretting my decision! It looks stunning!!

    The dress is gorgeous as well. Ahh Blair Waldorf never fails to impress!

  9. @ everfinest:
    I love playing dress up! :)

    @ Fashionablycorrect:
    Thanks! Btw, the shoes are comfy and on sale at bluefly in a blue color!

    @ laura:
    Thanks. This arty ring is from Saks. The one from YSL has a pretty gold shimmer instead of the big yellow blob :)

    @ Sarai:
    When I went to order this blazer it was soldout!! :(

    @ Colleen:
    I think that the wardrobes on Gossip Girl initially had more vintage pulls so I am happy that as of late they seem to have available items. --I don't know about other shows.

    @ Bravoe Runway:
    All it takes is one episode and you will be hooked! -If only for the fashion!

    @ NaNa:
    I think the arty ring is fun and would suggest it because it looks fun with dresses but can awesomely perk up a jeans and t-shirt look.

    Thanks! :)
