I was browsing the Dethrose Vintage shop and came across this perfect summer-to-fall blouse. I love that Karyn paired the simple top with skinny, cropped black trousers. But that top is begging for a statement necklace and after reading Leilani’s post about lockets and memorial jewelry I just had to add in a Bakelite mourning/sweetheart ring. I finished off the look with some weird-in-a-good-way plastic and cork shoes. Fun! How would you style this look with vintage accessories?

Très chic! Charles James at work, trying on a dress skirt in progress.
In a week and a half, the Chicago History Museum will open Charles James: Genius Deconstructed, taking its cues, most likely, from the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s recent blockbuster exhibition Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty.
The McQueen retrospective, which ended early August, was wildly successful, creating a fervor that attracted a record number of visitors to the museum. The exhibition displays were extravagant and the show featured hundreds of garments by the renowned designer.
