high/low

i wish i had pictures from my bestie's birthday on saturday! but i had one too many "cleo kisses" (specialty drink at cleo) and vodka sodas to take any full length pictures in a way that would properly show off my high/low outfit.  darnit!

i guess we will just have to make do with descriptions and pictures sourced from the web..

for the high, i started with an alexander wang draped assymetrical top:

this picture is of the dress version, but the top is well, just the top part.  alexander wang is a genius, and my top is one of my favorite things in my closet with deceptive pleats, drapes, and a snug bustier fit.  the top retailed for $648, although i picked it up on sale.

then i finished off the look with a forever 21 knit skirt that i picked up for $7.50:

don't let the price dissuade you as this is actually a really good buy! the skirt keeps it's shape well, and doesn't budge.

this week promises to be work-heavy.  lots of dinners, schmoozing, and stressing out at my desk.  hope everyone has a good week!
