Ankle-Length Strapless Dress (Get dress details),

I’d probably wear a shrug or a bolero style jacket with this crinkle-pleated shantung ankle-length strapless dress from Newport News just so I don’t have to leave my arms bare. I don’t have the prettiest elbows in the world so I like to have my arms covered at least to my elbows.

In another life I could see myself in the setting in the picture. Maybe I could see myself in this life if I’d known what I know now when I was young.

Think of yourself as being worth the very best life has to offer regardless if nobody else thinks you are.

Bebe Lucite Stretch Bracelet Set Multi (Get item details),

I like the chunkiness and earthy hues of these bracelets. Like shoes a woman can never have too many pieces of jewelry. I say that while I have a pitiful collection of both.

If I had a bottomless bank account I would start to amass a collection of shoes and jewelry and of course clothes.

Although I think there’s something to be said for having too many options having too few options is never good either.

Then again let’s remind ourselves that there are plenty more important things in life and that happiness is not about what you have and what you don’t. That said I’d rather be in the position to have more than I need than to have less than I want.

Malika - Ultra Violet SuedeHere’s another set I put together on Polyvore today. I built the set around the Jessica Simpson Malika sandals which I keep calling purple” but they are actually violet. The shoes are $99.99. Still as out of budget today as they were yesterday. Didn’t win the lottery overnight.

The dress is a $1,310 DOLCE & GABBANA Ruched pleated silk dress. I’m not sure about the bolero jacket. I think it’s a home made jacket. The links took me to what I’m assuming is a pattern for the jacket that’s selling for $5.40. I could be mistaken.

Pink Cream Wednesday 3:23

Put this set together on polyvore today. It includes this $430 Salvatore Ferragamo rose tan asymmetric silk top. It looks like it feels exquisite to touch. It’s pure silk recommended to be worn with pencil skirts and long trousers so I guess the $120 vintage Prada pleated skirt I’ve selected for the set isn’t the ideal style to pair with the top but I believe in wearing what you like.

The bracelet featured is the Maison Martin Margiela Rose gold-plated and leather cuff. It’s $550 which seems a bit steep for something gold plated; but it’s gorgeous.

The bag is a $320 Fendi Zucchino cream chain pochette and the shoes are Dv8 By Dolce Vita Cosette which are $117. The necklace is a $300 Hampton Reversible Bib Necklace.

The dress is actually not expensive even if I still can’t afford it. It’s the Mink 2 in 1 tunic dress from Dorothy Perkins. It $79.

The necklace and the bracelet are for when that billionaire alien from another planet comes down to earth and cannot be convinced that I’m not the most beautiful thing he’s ever seen so in his state of delusion he keeps buying me expensive things to honor me for my beauty (Not that I want to be honored for my beauty but no matter how I protest he insists),. If the billionaire alien never shows up I guess I’ll have to hope to win the lottery if I want this bracelet and this necklace because I can’t imagine the time ever coming when I will be earning the kind of money that will allow me to purchase a $3 495.00 bracelet and an $11,500 necklace.

  • The clutch is $645
  • The earrings are $10
  • The ring is $23

White cotton Voile Tie Front Tunic Top

Cute and romantic are two words that come to mind when viewing this cotton voile tie front cotton top.

I’d probably wear this loose without the belt. I can see wearing it on a summer day that’s not too hot maybe with a beige cream tan cotton tiered maxi skirt or possibly with some cut-off denim shorts and flat sandals.

I want this yellow Tiered Gauze Maxi Dress from Spiegel

This dress is only $59 but still not affordable for me right now. I love the style and the color. The fact that it has to be hand washed isn’t all that great though.

Tiered Gauze Maxi Dress More details about this dress

I imagine myself wearing this on a beautiful summer day when the weather is pleasantly cool. Where would I be? Hmm I don’t know. Not the beach. This dress is not beach appropriate I don’t think too long unless it’s for wearing out to dine where there won’t be any sand involved.

Closing my eyes and trying to see myself somewhere in this dress. I’m with a friend and we’re having lunch al fresco somewhere in the world. Wow my imagination needs some WD40. I can’t visualize a thing. Can’t even really visualize myself.

More likely I would be with one or more of my sisters and their children or I would be with the hubby and feeling like crap because he’s paying attention to everything and everyone else but me and even though he’s trying to pretend he’s not noticing all the younger ladies strutting about in their short shorts with their firm tan legs devoid of a hint of imperfection I see him taking in the view and for every girl who passes by that he gives an appreciative glance I fade more and more into the pavement under our feet.

I can pay 3 months rent with the money it costs to buy this Victoria Beckham drop waist pleated dress.

I love the dress but I’d have to win the lottery to be able to afford it and I have no luck with the lotto so I’m just going to have to wear this dress in my mind.

I spent a good while putting the above set together. You can plainly see I’m an amateur at putting sets together on Polyvore but it’s a fun way to pass some time fooling around with making outfits out of $3000 dresses you’ll never get your hands on in your lifetime.
