Look for Less: Miu Miu Striped Dirndl Dress

How adorable is Daisy Lowe in her striped Miu Miu dress? Answer: Very. Paired with a boyfriend blazer, black tights, and sky-high heels, this short, feminine frock makes Daisy look like a doll at the Sex and the City: The Movie world premiere.

While fashionistas everywhere are no doubt very envious of Ms. Lowe and her designer original, creative types on a budget (that's us) can get the same satisfaction with a little imagination: Try mixing Forever 21's pleated cotton skirt (above right), $22.80, with a cute top for a fetching look at a fraction of the cost.

Or, if you're willing to spend a little more, ASOS has done us all a favor and created this cap sleeved mini dress with satin striped trim for $82.19 that looks almost like the real thing.

What do you think of this look?
