Look, it’s Granny’s Curtains!

{3.1 Phillip Lim floral-print silk pant available here, tank and blazer from Saks Bal Harbour, Christian Louboutin heels, Chanel classic bag, Ray-Ban sunnies}

“Honey, you simply cannot wear this entire ensemble together…it’s too much,” Saks Fifth Avenue Bal Harbour Club Salesman Rafael scoffs.

“I’m a glutton for ‘too much.’ I’m taking it all, dude,” I fight back with a laugh.

So here I am in…in a head-to-toe floral print channeling your grandma’s sofa from the ’70s and you know what? I LOVE it. Phillip Lim killed it with his latest Cruise collection of silky pieces swathed in a print inspired by his NYC garden.

What do you think…too much? Or the right stuff?

    For the record … when I ordered head-to-toe Alexis, you told me, “You cannot wear that all at once.” See you really can! I’m all about an all-over print.

    I think it depends on the print and the fabric. It also depends on the person wearing it. You wear it, not the outfit wearing you. Maria you have a style and presence that you can wear anything and look amazing! You should be on E!’s Fashion Police!!!!

    I believe everything wrote made a lot of sense. But, what
    about this? what if you added a little content?
    I ain’t saying your information isn’t solid, however what if you added
    a post title that grabbed people’s attention? I mean Flirty in Phillip Lim | The Wordy Girl | By Miami Fashion Blogger Maria Tettamanti is kinda vanilla. You ought to glance at Yahoo’s
    home page and see how they create post titles to grab viewers to click.
    You might try adding a video or a related picture or two to grab
    people interested about what you’ve got to say. In my opinion, it might make your posts a little livelier.

    I’m impressed, I must say. Seldom do I encounter a blog that’s both educative and engaging, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head. The problem is something that not enough folks are speaking intelligently about. I am very happy I stumbled across this during my hunt for something concerning this.
