Two for Tuesday

Working 6 days a week is pretty strenuous and leaves little time for blogging. Not sure when I'll become independently wealthy and not have to work, but I hope it's relatively soon!
So today I am blogging both outfits from the days previous.
First is my guy, Gary Graham. It's been awhile and this is a great sweater dress from his fall collection. H&M tights and Marni shoes and a Uniqlo heattech tee complete the deal.
Second is an old dress from Tuni by some cheapo designer who knocks off other expensive designers. Well, ok, then. Mitch thinks this is a Balenciaga knock off. Cool! It's like parachute material and just a really short bag dress. I adore it. More H&M tights in olive green and my Stuart Weitzman leopard boots from Bergdorf last year, along with another Uniqlo heattech (my staples for layering! and only $19.95!)
The ladies at Saks make me come over and show them my outfits every day so there is a big pressure not to disappoint!

Corp




Corporate suits will be in today so I've been told to "not dress whacky."
Ok.....I can do conservative with the best of them! My version, anyway. I also have a few secrets to keep my integrity....Such as the gold skulls on my Alexander McQueen boots. And my 14k razor blade necklace. From far away, I look like Katie Corporate. But inside, I know I'm still Coco! Not to mention my "Bite Me" bangle by JKC.
Someone pointed out to me yesterday that McQ by McQueen line has a little gold razor blade attached to each piece of clothing! Now I feel a small connection to that master of design...

Entrenched

I have always wanted a trench coat but wanted something DIFFERENT. Yes, I know, surprise, surprise. I found the perfect one on Saks clearance rack, of all places! Everyone goes so nuts over Burberry but....snore....
This beauty by Rebecca Minkoff is so amazing, from its fur shoulders to its swingy short shape. It's like what I would have designed myself!
See by Chloe dress from Tuni, ages old. Still cool, still my go-to for days I don't feel like changing from my PJ's at all...
New Chanel boots, def a must-have.
Cashmere tights from shopbop.com, so warm and cozy on the cold days.

Is it so wrong to spend one month's rent on a fur Prada dress?

I debated this point for about 2.3 seconds and decided since I work in a fur salon, it's 100% tax deductible! Besides, it was on sale...what can a girl do?
I have been in a deep black funk for many months but hopefully the blog will be back on track thanks to the miracle of modern medicine, EXTREME retail therapy, and lots of prayers.

Luca Bella!

Luca of Dioniso sent these remodeled rabbit cuff Converse sneaks to me and i am just over the moon.
For the fur accessories queen, they are just purrrrfect!


Anyhoo, i wonder if Jon will let me wear these to work... He is my
manager and I love him.
He plays his favorite new dance hits for me on his ipod and never
bothers me about "dress code."
Not only that but he has been defending me against the powers that be,
who apparently question "Is she too over-the-top?"
NO, I am right at the top, and loving it!
Check out Luca's Facebook with all the new designs!
