It's not so much that I'm blown away by the mesh dress itself as much as I like the styling of the whole look. Maybe not something my mother could pull off, but the white bodysuit is hot under the black mesh! And a great boyfriend sweater is never a bad thing.

The Kooples

***
The Kooples is one of those brands that makes me ask 'Why doesn't the US have something like this?' I love the neutral color pallet (black & gray), the collections are small, the individual pieces are smart and classic, most are moderately priced, and there is always a dash of current trend just for good measure. Then I remember that this isn't France, and the understated cool of this concise line would most likely be lost in the sea of over-embellished American chain stores....Ahh, what I wouldn't give to stock-up my closet with a few of those key basics that keep your daily look polished and chic. Damn.

Rachel Comey

***
Generally I find Rachel Comey to be too sweet for my personal tastes. However, this little number is nothing but S-E-X-Y...either on it's own or peeking out of layers. It leaves just enough to the imagination.

Acne Jeans

Great not-too-dressy and not-too-casual dress in one of the few colors I can't resist.
