Night and Day
I am obsessed with the above Miu Miu dress. It reminds me vaguely of a sleeveless version of the Tibi Floating Feathers dress (I own... see below, left)
Which reminded me of the Hayden Harnett Hitchcock dress (I do not own... see above, right). But the Miu Miu one is astronomically priced so owning it is not going to happen. If I did have it, I would wear it for night and day. I think its sleevelessness makes it more versatile. Whereas in the above pictured Tibi number, the silhouette makes it hard to not feel buttoned up.

The Miu Miu dress is lovely! I love both the day and night look you created.
You've got a great eye for prints!
I agree, you do have a great eye. I think all 3 dresses are lovely. I also think we share a preference for dresses; I'd like to wear them day/night too :)
Thank you both! I love dresses and it seems like I gravitate toward prints, mostly.
To me, Miu Miu is either hit or miss and this season, they are definitely a hit. Have you seen the high heel Mary Janes in the Swallow print? They're similar to Millie's (from the broad), but without the platform. I like Millie's shoes the best, but the Swallow print version is no slouch!! In regard to the dress, your Tibi is very close, except for the sleeve treatment. You wear it well!

Speaking of prints, it has become my new life goal to own this: http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?subCategoryId=CLOTHES-DRESSES&id=023071&catId=CLOTHES-DRESSES&pushId=CLOTHES-DRESSES&popId=CLOTHES&sortProperties=&navCount=15&navAction=top&fromCategoryPage=true&selectedProductSize=&selectedProductSize1=&color=041&colorName=NAVY&isSubcategory=true&isProduct=true&isBigImage=&templateType=. Sigh. Now to drag Adam off to the Galleria.
Thank you Carole! I love Millie's floral print ones but have yet to see the swallow print. I will have to look for them. The heels appear to be way out of my height range, though. I am a heel wuss. :(
Elaina, I too LOVE that dress! It is so cute. I can't wait until we have an Anthropologie in the city. The Galleria is a hike.
I noticed you guys were talking about high heels and I wanted to share something with you that you may be interested in...
A little over 2 years ago, my husband and I got married in Los Angeles, California. Unfortunately, the day of our wedding was spoiled with rain. We have been having the wedding out on the grass and believe it or not, I was wearing high heeled shoes! They have been ruined by the end with the day :(
Despite the fact that this was one of the worst experiences I've ever had with my shoes, it really led my sister in law to create a product which is just awesome! It is already been featured on TV shows like the Girls of the Playboy Mansion, and the show Kendra.
Heels Above will aid you protect your expensive heels from sinking in mud, slipping in cracks, and walking on sand and gravel. It's a new product, and I thought I'd share it with all of you.
They're taking orders now. It is possible to order one pair, or a few dozen for your big wedding day.
I hope you guys like it... If you've any questions, feel free to drop them an email on their internet site:
