Me Wants It: Labradorite, Alice + Olivia, maxi dresses and more!

What do you do when you need a distraction of some sort, but you don’t feel like leaving your home and putting on a “happy face”?  I love my friends dearly, but lately I have just needed some time to myself.  I know that when you are grieving over a break-up you SHOULD “suck it up” so to speak and force  yourself to be social, but sometimes I just don’t have the energy to act like everything is OK.

So what do you do instead? 

I’ve been spending a lot of time online “window shopping” and expanding my shopping lists.

Let’s start with the items I am currently coveting from shopbop and net-a-porter.  These would all be GREAT additions to my life:

This oversized Roberto Cavalli labradorite ring.  As Gollum would say “me wants it….”

I love Alice + Olivia and this one-shoulder draped silk and jersey minidress is just gorgeous.   Love the color!

And in the same vein, this Alice + Olivia faux wrap dress.

Then we have this fun Alice+ Olivia sequin minidress in Bronze.

And for a more casual look, I NEED to own this Alice + Olivia sequin stripe tee!

This printed silk-blend georgette dress by Diane von Furstenberg would be a perfect addition to both my professional and night-out wardrobes.   *love*

You can never have enough maxi dresses, and this one by Patterson J. Kincaid is screaming “buy me”

In addition to maxi dresses, you can also never own enough jersey dresses.  Like this one by Helmut Lang:

And how about this fabulous Only Hearts lace bomber jacket? Who needs cardigans when you can wear this instead!

This leopard print wrap dress by Haute Hippie has a halter neck – and would look great on a curvy woman like myself!

Gorjana’s designs never cease to impress me.  This Graham studded wrap bracelet is the latest item I am coveting from her collection, and at only $50 it’s a MUST BUY item.

I love window shopping.
