If that is what you have been craving, French Connection is having End of Summer sale, and their prices are definitely worth checking out. Many items are up to 75% off and are steals. Here are a few great top finds with a dual benefit: we love the style and the price!

1. Pin Sweater – $29.99 (original $108). This bell sleeved sweater is adorably crafted and has a gorgeous hue. Wear on the cold summer night or into the fall and winter with heavier fabrics.

2. Angelica Top -$29 (Original $99). Available in various colors, turquoise, pink, and cream, this blouse will work well paired up with jeans for casual style and with tailored pants in the office.

3. Juliets Dream Top -$39.99 (original $138) – This 100% silk, flowy top is feminine and elegant. Small twists such as embroidered flower and criss-cross back straps are bound to draw compliments. And it doesn’t hurt that this style hides any figure imperfections.

The Find: DKYNC Haylee Platform Sandal

by fh on August 21, 2009 · 0 comments

DKNYPlatformShoe

This DKNYC Haylee Platform Sandal is Marni like funky, creative, and versatile. The sandals are respectable height of 5″ (2″ of which are attributed to the platform), and will give you and extra inch or two, two stand out from the crowd. The warm taupe colored leather will jive well with dark and light colors.

I love the Rocker edge these sandals have that is balanced by the classy taupe shade.

Perhaps the most appealing aspects of shoe is how well it could be accessorized through different seasons.

I see white cotton gypsy skirt swaying in the wind paired with these sandals in the summer. A “model leg” perfectly elongated by the nudes in these sandals and worn with dark wash skinny jeans in the fall. And how about rocking these babies with some dark tights or textured stockings and a fun short dress into the winter? To wild? Well, may be into the warm climate winter, such as California or Arizona.

To add more shopping leverage, these sandals are currently on sale $79.99 (original $120) + free shipping at Piperlime.

How would you wear these? Share in the comment section.
