Random Bits of Marni

I was wasting time on Net-A-Porter yesterday when I can across this lovely sight.  I'm such a sucker for paillettes and this has a little twist to it.  Marni paillette-embellished bib necklace, with melty-warped paillettes for a mere $420.  I love love love it, but will never ever have it.  Also, I don't know if I would have styled this with a semi-chunky red sweater, I kinda feel like the sweater is stealing a little of the necklace's thunder.

And what have we here?  The same pailletts adorning a handbag, and it's very good.  Marni paillette-embellished wool-felt tote for $1020, which is grumpy making for a poor gal.
 
You could work both pieces at the same time, if being matchy-matchy is your thing.  I like the sandals here too, also Marni. 


Oooooh look, there's more!  But what is it?


Uh, duh, it's a head dress. . . swim cap. . . thing.  Marni paillette-embellished wool-felt hat, yours for $1055.  Odd that the other pieces were modeled by a live model and this ended up on a mannequin head.


After looking at these I wanted to look and see how this stuff had looked on the runway, but I couldn't find any images of them from the past few season's collections, so maybe they didn't show them.  I did however end up looking through the Marni Pre-fall 2011 Collection and found a bunch of looks that made me super happy even though some of them are not like anything I'd ever wear.

Take this look for example, I love this look even though the pants are sort of harem-y and would make me look even shorter and hippier than I already am.  But I love the plaid, lots, and the bag, and the shoes.  It's all good.

I feel sorta whatever about the clothes here, but the accessories are kick-ass, especially those mittens and shoes.


This is cute, I like the blue on black heart print in the skirt.  And how bad do you want that bag?


Head to toe I love all of this.


And again, all of it is yes.


I love all the different colors of the same print together here.

And finally, these goofy pants again, but I would still wear this whole look (if I wasn't poor), and as usual, the accessories are amazing.
