For today’s Fashion Friday, I wanted to share all of the designer sale season items I decided against (and now regret).
Phoebe Philo Celine Jewelry
Anytime I’m in NY I carve time out for two things NO MATTER WHAT. Shopping and eating. NYC is one of the greatest cities in the world and I’d be a fool not to partake in two of her mastery’s.
In between NYFW shows, I popped into The RealReal in Soho. This Phoebe Philo Celine cuff and gold choker are so epic. I passed because I didn’t think it was wise to make such a big purchase in 20 minutes – like I said, in between shows – but boy, was I wrong.
I wish I would have at least purchased the cuff. It’s so unique. Ugh.
Silk Jumpsuit
This was a random, after work shopping trip that yielded plentiful results. The cut, comfort and level of chic attached to this jumpsuit is otherworldly. So why the heck did I leave it behind? I had to drive from LA to San Diego that night and wanted to beat traffic, so I passed because it was final sale.
I ended up calling the store the next day to see if it was still available and it wasn’t. I spent the better part of 3 months trying to track it down with no luck.
Mugler Leather Jacket
I have a thing for Mugler leather jackets. My holy grail is this one. It slipped through my fingers and I’m not going to lie when I say that if I ever see it in person, it will take every fiber of my being not to snatch it off the back of the wearer.
A close second was this super structured shoulder number I found in NY. Again, I had less than an hour between NYFW shows and decided against it. Beyond those kick-ass shoulders was a cropped silhouette with zippered moto sleeves.
Passing on that one? Amateur hour.
Valentino Dress
This was probably the biggest blunder of them all because it was from Nordstrom. With their amazing return policy, I should have taken it home and let it sit in my closet for a few days.
The leopard print. The jeweled eye. The 60s cut. It had everything. And it was super comfortable and could be worn for a multitude of events.
Like I said. Ugh.
