The Look for Less: Baroque N Roll

Wednesday, October 31, 2012



One of my favorite fall collections this year came from Dolce & Gabbana. While the label always designs beautiful clothes, the baroque Italian looks and the advertising campaign starring actress Monica Bellucci and models Bianca Balti and Bianca Brandolini epitomizes everything I want to wear this season.

Sheer lace, nipped silhouettes, Renaissance worthy golds, sexy sheers, and chic chignons offset by enormous earrings - in my book, nothing is more glamorous. I checked out some of Dolce's beautiful pieces on net-a-porter, just for fun, and was shellshocked by the extreme price tags. Some of the baroque dresses ran upwards of $20,000 (insert gasp here).

Luckily, some less expensive stores have caught the baroque bug and are offering glam Italian-inspired pieces at prices suitable for budget-minded babes like myself. Check out my round up below!

The most popular decade du jour for the spring/summer 2012 season had to be the fifties. From Italian bombshell sundresses at Dolce & Gabbana to cutie pie swimwear at Marc by Marc Jacobs, the fifties trend will work for almost any occasion. This fifties will also prove to be one of the wearable trends of the season with figure-flattering nipped in waists, fluttery skirts, and chic pencil suits.
