Mod-ified [Trend Watch, Mod Dresses]

Dresses are all over the place, tiny cute little baby doll, Mod inspired dresses that hit above the knee that Eddie would have worn back in her day and that Sienna and Mischa now rock.

Kate Husdon wore her Chanel dress with black leggings and pumps out on the town recently.
Another way to wear these baby doll dresses are over jeans/denim that are tapered or pencil
to give a more elongated look to the legs.

They’re cute if you have long legs and all, because those are about the only things they accentuate. Honestly, they’re pretty much shapeless. So stay away if your a lil round, or curvy they could make you look like a potato.

However, if you’re sexy legs are here for the showing, here are some picks on and off the runway.

On the Runway:

1. Chanel 2. Chloe 3. DVF 4. Miu Miu

Seen on:

1. I love Piper Perabo’s dress the best, the color adds a big punch, no need for accessories or jewelry, just a pretty smile.

2. Sienna Miller is always standing pretty, in her A-line dresses.

3. Mischa Barton has been seen all over in Mod dresses, day and night, here she dresses down her eyelet dress with some funky hippie boots and a multi-color jacket.

4. Hillary Duff wears a sparkling black sequined dress, lightly accentuated with bangles.

Right now I’m on the hunt to find some retailers with cute dresses to collage in my next post. More later (wink)
Love – Jahaute!

Gingham is not a city in New England?

Well, I don’t think so! I know it’s a pattern. The same pattern that’s was used on my school uniforms in Jamaica as a child (yea, we all wore uniforms) and is still used(see pic at right). Anyways, I was delighted to see a 21st Century twist to the use of the fabric. So brilliantly done by one of my favorite designers, Diane von Furstenberg. I mean I never knew I’d be salivating over a dress like this. Just wanted to share it with you because I think its are so cute, and simplicity is my best friend and you cant really go wrong with an investment in a simple wrap dress by DVF.

WHO WORE IT BEST?

Leave me a comment to let me know which one of these sexy ladies you think woreit best. Foxy Brown or Amerie?
