I wore this outfit for a late brunch on Sunday at one of my old standbys, Rue 57.  As soon as I saw this dress, I was immediately drawn to the bold, tropical print.  It finally went on sale, and the rest is history.  I love statement dresses like this that only require minimal accessories.  They’re simply perfect for days when you don’t have time (or the desire) to fuss around, but  still want to look good.

P.S.
If you live near a Daffy’s, they have an amazing selection of designer shoes in now.  I copped these Moschino sandals for $70, and I spotted an awesome pair of Tabitha Simmons ankle boots, not to mention Lanvin, Jimmy Choo, and YSL!

Yesterday turned out to be one of those blah days when I couldn’t decide what to wear and nothing seemed to look quite right.  Whenever that happens, I try not to fight myself too much.  In this particular case, I decided to go with a pretty neutral outfit (white tee and a simple striped skirt) and punch things up with my a pair of my fa-vo-rite sandals.  It’s hard to feel down on yourself when you have pretty floral bows on your feet… right?  Ahhhh shoes… the answer to all of life’s troubles!

In other news, I was recently invited to join the Project Runway Season 10 Fashion Network.  More details on exactly what that entails coming soon!   In the mean time, be sure to check out tonight’s premiere airing at 9pm.
