Casual Coral OOTD

Kate Spade top and make up bag/clutch

Anthro skirt

I bought this rosette top from the Kate Spade outlet in Rehoboth and wore it this week. It was marked 75% off which made it a great bargain. I like it because the embellished front reminds me of the Bold Boutonnière dress. Even many years later, it is hard for me to look at a rosette-adorned bodice without thinking of one of my favorite outfits ever shown on Sex and the City.

Carrie wore it when she flew to Paris and the combo of stripes and textures floored me.

My top and the Bold Boutonnière dresses aren't exact mirrors of the fancy and dramatic pleating of Carrie's designer duds. But I still think this detail is 're fun in every iteration.

Kell on Earth's Breakout Star: Andrew the Goth, Grunge, Glam, Gay Man!

I decided to set my DVR to record Bravo's new show about Kelly Cutrone's New York-based public relations firm that services the fashion industry, Kell on Earth. And I learned that similarly to The Rachel Zoe Project, these shows are often worth viewing for the tertiary side characters alone. Take her assistant, Andrew:

His enthusiasm and approach to stress will provide the comic relief and keep me watching.

After finding this video in which he takes the cameras through his enviable closet, I am even more excited to see what he will wear and say this season.


Anyone else tune in? I loved his Balenciaga bag and his Rick Owens collection!
