Dior Trotter Romantique Shoe

June 22, 2006 by Designer Ella

Christian Dior Trotter Romantique T-Strap Sandal Why didn’t I think of it before? I love the Trotter Romantique range (in handbags) by Dior for brides, so why didn’t I think about the possibility of shoes?

The Trotter Romantique T-Strap Sandal isn’t exactly what I would choose for my bridal shoe, but it gives me a clue as to what I might want. With logo-engraved leather woven through a chain (t-)strap, an ankle strap, beige Dior logo jacquard lined insole and of course that cute bow, this shoe is romantic and sexy.

I would like to go for something a little more demure, for that chain t-strap gives this some va-voom I don’t think is moi. I’d also need something under 2 ¼”, and this has a 3 ½” heel.

Now so what if its $500 pricetag could cost as much as a discounted dress? It’s worth it for this occasion to me!

Tomas Maier Knotty Femme Bikini

June 22, 2006 by Designer Ella

I typically am not impressed by swimsuits with designer labels—what’s the high-price point? But this feminine bikini with bow-like knots and ruching (see zoom picture on Net-a-Porter) by Tomas Maier, called Captiva, truly captivates me. I even love the black; classic, flattering (especially its halter option) and would offset my fair Summer skin just right.

I would love to buy this bikini if I had the right body … and if I were rich, because this designer swimsuit is $365. Hey, if I were wealthy enough, I’d buy it now anyway. I don’t really feel I need to someday have the perfect flat stomach, but this could be a nice incentive.
