The Perfect ‘Convertible’ for Summer

Thursday, July 2nd, 2009

lara_miller_donna_dressWho: Lara Miller; Chicago, IL

What: Donna Dress Mini (Maxi also available)

Where: Haute Line, $235 in onyx, fuschia or cobalt; the print dress size (L) is on sale at Kaight for $169.40, cobalt available at pivotboutique.com for $244; at embodies for $242 & 15% off with code WHTAPT05

Why: Three fabulous dresses all wrapped up in one. This super flattering dress can be worn as a cinched waist strapless, a sexy halter or a casual day dress with a flirty tie front. The long tie at the waist also leaves room for creativity; create a criss-crossed halter by crossing the straps across the chest or adding a big bow to a strapless instead of a cinched waist. All sorts of possibilities!

The well thought out design also has ever-so-convenient pockets tucked into the folds, so you can forgo cumbersome clutches while out and about. The skirt is made of 100% certified organic cotton and the top is made of 94% certified organic cotton.

Argington’s Inspired Organic Crib Bedding

argington_butterfly_and_sticks1

Who: Argington; Brooklyn, NY

What: Butterfly, Sticks & Buds crib bedding

Where: Bobby Berk Home, $195, includes reversible comforter cover, 2 fitted crib sheets (natural) & 1 pillowcase. Also available in a boy’s (or girl’s) Dinosaur print, $195 for the set.

Why: Sweet and modern can go hand and hand as in this design from Argington. This design begs a second look – at first glance you have a delicate pattern in pink and vanilla (too creamy to be called white), but upon closer inspection a klaidescope of butterflies and twirling twigs and buds emerges. (The Dinosaur set looks like a Rorschach Test from afar, but a close-up reveals a quartet of brontosaurus.)
