Pair with wine

It's fun to pretty it up for special occasions and this dress would definitely impress on a night out. The demure boatneck plays against the deep peekaboo cut in the front while the contrasting border and two bows add just enough feminine detail.

Cartoon footwear

I love shoes and sly references so it's no wonder these gorgeous pumps gave me heart palpitations! Handmade using leather, this adorable homage to Popeye's girlfriend is truly a wearable sculpture.

Just shoot me

I would love to thrill all my photographer friends with this fun disguised gift. On the outside, it looks like a regular camera lens, but once the lenscap comes off, it's a cup!

Tweedhearts

This past week was rife with shopping opportunites as a girlfriend and I went on a little roadtrip to a tax-free state. While in Portland, I picked up a beautiful Kate Spade wristlet and I couldn't resist checking out her website when I got home. Tweed isn't seen much anymore, but I think this skirt is totally sweet:

Last dance with Mary Jane

Heels are known for making legs look longer and the illusion is enhanced when they are nude. I love how the shiny patent leather dresses up these simple mary janes:
