Jonathan Kelsey Chic


His shoes are fabulous and they are on sale now at www.gilt.com. 

Vintage Find of the Day


Add some beautiful color to your holiday wardrobe with this gorgeous yellow lace sheath dress from the 1960s. Made by Ceil Chapman, this dress exhibits outstanding detail and is complete with dotted rhinestones across the bodice and sleeves (see close up photos). It is wonderful in every way.

Making it work: Don't be afraid to wear this now and through the winter months. Pair it with dark tights (black would be safest - but a rich purple (not lavender) would look great) and some daring black stilettos. Keep your jewelry simple (earrings only) and let the dress be your center of attention.

Not so sure you are ready to pull off colored tights? Look HERE for a little inspiration. 

Available now for $185 at www.woodlandfarmsantiques.com in a size 6.

Vintage Find of the Day


This is one of the best versions of a trusty black dress. Owning it would be like having wardrobe insurance for those evenings when you can't quite figure out what to wear! It is beautifully crafted with ruffles at the neckline, the waist and hemline. It screams chic and it looks exceptionally comfy.

Preppy chic! This 1960s jacket is a stunner. It's French-made of a heavy cotton brocade and is in wonderful condition. Notice the leopard-spots on the bamboo design and the authentic bamboo buttons. The lucky owner of this jacket is sure to enjoy it for countless seasons.

Making it work: Pair this with dark denim skinny jeans for day. Add a splash of color with a simple underlayer, or keep it simple and black. Or, try something more fun by matching the jacket with leggings and your over the knee boots - a great day to evening look.

Available for $235.00 at www.swankvintage.com (size 6).
