Pics from the Verrieres and Sako trunk show 10/09

The Verrieres & Sako trunk show was so much fun last night.  It was a barrage of designer duds left and right.  And for a fraction of the cost of some of the handbags being worn by the beautiful ladies, my entire outfit cost less than $700 (accessories included).

What I wore:

• animal print cropped jacket I bought on sale from Guess a couple of years ago
• pearl necklace from Banana Republic 
• black Prada dress circa late 2007 with enough stretch in it to look amazing on me :)
• gold stretch bracelet and Michael Kors chained handbag in purple suede
• Jeffrey Campbell shoes (the best part!!!)

Since the shoes were the most amazing part of the outfit (not sure why they didn't make it into any of the photos), here they are :)

What I bought:

Thank you to Drew Altizer Photography for being so quick to post the pics.

Chanel Inspired for Every Budget on Etsy

I don't know about you, but I sure can't afford authentic Chanel anything these days (well, except the Chanel beauty products). I surfed etsy like usual, and here are some Chanel inspired items I found that will satisfy your need for designer duds at a fraction of the price!

This beautiful necklace would also double as a great belt. $40








This necklace would look great paired with a white blouse. $48











This Necklace is that statement maker you have been looking for. $129











Chain straps are all the rage right now. Keep it simple with this necklace. $45











This necklace is attached to a very cute black tank. $78











A basic necklace, but one that will never go out of style. $18
