Nothing thrills me more than ballerina style dresses and trench coats, so it was only a matter of time until I combined the two. I start off today’s post with the ballerina portion by wearing a dress from Comme des Garçons …
This is my first Comme des Garçons piece. I really love its look with the ballerina-esque skirt and the top portion of the dress, which is a wool-blend, asymmetric “square”. I just wish it was a little better constructed, especially in consideration of its price. The quality is not what I’m used to, with respect to designer clothing. I hope I just bought a “bum” piece because I’d hate to think that all Comme is like this. At any rate, I missed my deadline to return it, so it’s mine now.
Enough complaining and on with the undercover portion of this post. There’s nothing like a trench coat to invoke visions of spies, private detectives, and so on. It also got very cold while I was shooting my pictures, so I was glad to hurry up and put the trench on …
And, here I do some surveillance …
With an iPhone? It’s all I had. :/
My ballet pink trench is by Ralph (Ralph Lauren) and my shoes are Missoni.
That’s all for now. More soon. — Carole
I had better luck today with my shoot as no bees dared to show themselves while I was out there. I have to say that taking pictures outside is so much easier than doing them inside. I guess that’s why it’s such a popular venue for bloggers. As long as the weather doesn’t get too hot or until I get unenthused or the bees return, I’ll likely do some more pictures outside.
