A Mid-Summer Night's Dream....

I was looking at the just-reduced items on Shopbop (yea sales!) and immediately fixated on this Thakoon dress:
It is perfect with a strappy, metallic heel, but what about a flat sandal for when you are on board your yacht in the Mediterranean? If it had other colors or stripes, I could totally see Margherita Missoni wearing this to some European gala (with a gold leaf headband worn across the forehead, natch). I feel a girl-crush post featuring that chica might be necessary soon....

Anyway, I just love the back of the dress, too:
Even though it is 30% off, it is still over $2,000, so I think I will have to let this one go ;) But I know when I need a dress for a yacht party, I will be upset I didn't snap this one up! Hehe
I hope everyone had a great long weekend!

  6. Love it! The back is so pretty too. I would lounge around my house in it, walk my dog in it, go grocery shopping in it...

    I definitely think we need a post on Margherita soon.

  7. I love this dress and as you said, the back is gorgeous. I love a sexy back. It is all about the back for me. For that price, just like you, I will have to let it go. Times are tough for most people here including me.
