Closet-Worthy: A Dream Outfit

Instead of a Dress for Less I've decided to do a Dream Outfit. I suppose you could call this an end of summer/early fall look... For this outfit I used my 2 favorite stores, even though I rarely ever buy things, The Outnet and Net-a-Porter! I was going to make it a neutral look but fell in love with the Stella McCartney jacket *sigh*...if only I were rich. Also, it is name the "Megan" I think it was meant to be...

Perhaps tomorrow I'll do a "less" version if I feel up to it. But I've been so dead from moving in and such so I may do a simple post, we shall see.

Shorts - Gryphon $155 (Regularly $445)
Tank - Marc Jacobs $315 (Regularly $795)
Blazer - Stella McCartney $1685
Sandals - Marni $256 (Regularly $640)
Bag - Proenza Schouler PS1 $1595
Ring - YSL Arty $275
Total: $4281 
[YOWZA...if you can afford this, I envy you ;) But it is good for inspiration, right]

The shorts would also be lovely with this J.Crew sweater which is a BIT more attainable since the shorts + sweater are $235. It makes me weep a bit inside to know that people actually spend this much money on clothes regularly.  Ha ha.

    The blouse is gorgeous. I don't think I'd spend that much, but it's easy to justify when I know I'd wear it to work all of the time!

    Good outfit, but a little to much leather that I would feel comfortable in. But I am sure it would look great on the right person. :)
