Fashionista Talk » DIANE von FURSTENBERG http://www.fashionistatalk.com where fashionistas talk Sat, 31 Jul 2010 16:10:54 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 Chocolate Brown Delight http://www.fashionistatalk.com/2010/02/chocolate-brown-delight-feb-510/ http://www.fashionistatalk.com/2010/02/chocolate-brown-delight-feb-510/#comments Fri, 05 Feb 2010 20:34:10 +0000 lida http://www.fashionistatalk.com/?p=1673 After finishing this post I will be driving out to see an old friend of mine, Alissa, who just had a baby. I haven’t seen her since she moved outside of Toronto to the countryside in preparation for her little one. For as long as I could remember she has been a quintessential “city girl,” a fashionable “from lattes to pilates” kind of chica. She keeps insisting that I need a GPS to find her now :) . It will be interesting to see her outside of her element, and considering that she is planning on moving back soon the opportunity won’t last too long.

Today’s-look-of-the-day is filled with chocolate hues. The pattered shirt is the visually dominant piece and the rest of the garments were chosen with this in mind. The vest, top, tights, and pumps are relatively simple and are congruent with the skirt in their colour tonality. Patterns are fun but should be approached with caution because competing patterns are often a recipe for a messy disaster.

What I’m wearing:

  • High-waisted pencil skirt by “DIANE von FURSTENBERG” (as seen in Nov. 12’09)
  • Silk top by “Rory Beca” (as seen in Dec. 11’09, Dec. 28’09)
  • Opaque tights by “Holt Renfrew”
  • Knitted vest and scarf by “Marciano” (as seen in Nov. 24’09)
  • Suede pumps by “6267″ (as seen in Jan. 10’10)
  • Gold necklace and earrings

I am going out for a dinner tonight and decided to do my “look of the day” entry on what I’m planning to wear. I have never worn the skirt or the top before and had never tried this combination. I purchased the skirt first and had a hard time finding something to go with it. After I got the top, it also just hung in my closet; waiting for an appropriate match to complete it. The day has finally come – they found each other. So I call this daily post, (LOL) Soultry Thursday; The Kitchen Edition. Let me know what you think.

What I’m wearing:

  • High-waisted skirt by “DIANE von FURSTENBERG”
  • Top by “Dolce & Gabbana”
  • Crystal ring by “Emporio Armani”
  • Wild-pearl necklace
  • Shoes by “Report Signature“
  • Coat by “twenty 8 twelve – by s.miller”
  • Skin-tone, clear stockings
