Marge Has the Blues



My good friend Marge (aka Lisa) loves the navy blue dress Reese Witherspoon wore to the Rendition premiere. Unfortunately it’s a Nina Ricci dress and a bit pricey (and no where to be found), so she wants something similar. Navy or a deep blue, strapless with a simple silhouette - and under $200. I searched the 'net and found some that may work.


Louis Verdad - Revolve Clothing


Halogen - Nordstrom


Ruby Rox - Nordstrom
Love the slight sweetheart neckline and the color looks a lot like Reese's dress


Graham & Spencer - Amazon


Laundry by Design - Saks Fifth Avenue
This has straps, but I love the style and think it would be really flattering


Parameter - Blue Fly
This dress looks black in the photo, but says it's navy


ASOS


Sutton Studio - Bloomingdale's
Sans the wrap of course


Ann Taylor
The top has the same sort of ruching as Reese's


Guess
A tad sexier :)


Betsey Johnson - Blue Fly


J. Crew


Marc by Marc Jacobs - Nordstrom
This dress is about double Marge's budget, but I LOVE it.


BCBG - Lord & Taylor
This dress is very similar in color to the Nina Ricci dress, however it's over $300. But there are always sales!

Fall Fashion

I so wish I could be in New York City for the Fall 2008 runway shows this week. So fun! Maybe someday...? Alas, for now I must admire the fashions from afar. While browsing the plethora of photos from the collections, I noticed some trends for fall....
