Yea, Nay, or Eh?: Dreaming of a White Christmas
December 28, 2009 1:13 pm
While those of us in the Northeast were dodging snowdrifts this holiday weekend, a few of our luckier compatriots were hitting the beach. Tamara Mellon headed down to St. Bart’s for a little sand and sun—not to mention some fabulous company, like pals Marc and Lorenzo. And while the island paradise inspires some to a less-is-more fashion philosophy, Mellon’s sweet, eyelet-cut minidress feels refined. (The chunky, MObama-ish belt keeps things from getting too sugary.) The only real surprise here: flats on the president of Jimmy Choo! We guess even the boss deserves a vacation now and again. What do you think of TM’s warm-weather look?

That look isn’t the most flattering beach ensemble I’ve ever seen. If I had access to the clothes and accessories these women have, those are not the things I would choose. What a waste.

It would have been better with a short chocolate brown bandage mini peeking out from underneath and maybe a simpler wide belt with sturdy hardware (not fake-y biker chic studs and rhinestones).

By fashionpicks on 12/29/09 at 10:08 amAre you sure it can count as a dress?
By futurefashionzoey on 12/31/09 at 1:59 pmI’m guessing anything going past the hips is considered a dress?
and couldn’t agree more with adhikari.
By tiffbit on 01/3/10 at 12:04 amOh I don’t like this. Looks very messy and not at all classy or chic. I wouldn’t call that a dress either, but it is pretty on its own, just not worn that way.

I think this is a hit and miss. The tunic with out the belt would look better, more casual. The belt makes it look like she was trying to pull something together and failed.
