I spotted these delightfully whimsical Miu Miu heels on a woman walking through Lincoln Plaza on a late afternoon during fashion week. They caught my eye because I had seen these heels on not one, but three Vogue employees at the Anna Dello Russo breakfast. Apparently the Devil does love Prada and not Gucci, Marc Jacobs, or Dior. I always wondered why Lauren Weisberger chose Miucca’s fashion house and not any of the other European fashion brands. Now I know.
Celine pants aside, there is something mesmerizing about this woman’s simplicity. I know that minimalism is in and all, but she mastered the aesthetic. The oversized blazer is the key. A bit of proportion play is an excellent method to keep a minimal look intriguing, since it can run the risk of looking boring. I went thrifting recently and bought an oversized authentic Pendelton blazer for an astonishing $5. What was more startling was that whoever priced that garment had no idea what they were looking at.
