Look for Less: Chloé Metallic Mini

With creative and tasteful applications of metallics such as this embellished Chloé mini skirt (left) - and its oh-so-affordable Twelve by Twelve understudies (right) - me thinks this trend is here to stay for a very, very long time. And if we're wrong? Opt for the lesser priced version and you'll only be $50 poorer.


Luxe: Chloé mini skirt WAS: $1,910.00 NOW: $1,146.00
Less (Top): Twelve by Twelve wool cowlneck dress, $49.50
Less (Bottom): Twelve by Twelve wool turtleneck dress, $49.50

Me too. Which neckline do you prefer? I can't decide...

So I went to forever 21 and found this dress las night, (the bottom one, high collar) and although I was dying to get it from the picture, in person it really didn't do anything for me. It just wasn't that great in person. The fabric didn't feel worth the 50.00- it felt kinda, ahem, cheap-o. and the sequins felt like they were going to fall off. ick! I was very disappointed, but instead I picked up a sequin tunic from the regular collection that looks great and cost half the price!

Grrr...what a bummer! Good to know, though, thanks for sharing.
