Weak In The Knees

I'm in love.

Loeffler Randall captured my heart early last year when I saw a sunshine yellow ruffled bikini. This Fall she has me tied around her finger with her seemingly simple looks, but plays with my emotions with her excruciatingly incredible detail. Yes, her designs are so absolutely amazing that it hurts.



I don't know what to do with myself. Look at how immaculate everything is. And this dress below, Loeffler, you had me at the pleats (and then she added ruffles).


Who knew something as ordinary as black and white could result in the above.
...and then there are her shoes.


All I can do is lust after these treasures, as my paycheck will probably let me buy around... perhaps a sleeve of that pink dress (not even). So I turned to Etsy, my online heaven of everything crafty and creative, and found this lovely little designer, LEMONSTORY by Kimenna. Pleats and ruffles, ruffles and pleats all over again - at a more affordable price. My heart is hurting, but my love endures.

  1. That is absolutely stunning!

    The white dress with the ruffle sleeves in the second photograph is breathtaking, but my absolute favourite has to be the shirt. I adore it!!

  21. Hey,as I read this article I felt obligated to write about Gilt Groupe. I don't know if anyone is familiar with Gilt, but It is an online website that sells designer brands. They have several sales each week from top brands and the items are discounted heavily from 20 to 80% off. If you would like to read more you can read Forbes most recent article about them here http://www.forbes.com/forbes/2008/0225/070.html

    However, membership is by invitation only. I am a member and I listed my invitation link below in case anyone would like to check it out. http://www.gilt.com/invite/michaeljcanine
