Adrien: Issa New Outfit.

There are a few brands I have saved searches for on eBay and ISSA London is one of them. While there's no way I'm ever going to drop $500+ on an ISSA dress, no matter how beautiful or interesting, every now and then I get a crazy deal.  This particular dress I stalked for a month as the price dropped, and dropped and dropped:


And I finally bought it. Whee! The best part? NOBODY has this dress. It's an older Issa print and I've never seen this exact dress on eBay before. Obviously it was a risk but I know how ISSA fits me so it was worth a chance. The other best part? This dress is pretty in the front, CRAZY in the back. 


Wait for it:


Boom! This is why I hunt down ISSA. I know I've been on a lot lately about fun print wrap dresses, but they're just so versatile. This one by DVF is fancy/crazy but you could definitely wear it to work. And it's on sale! For quite a bit less money this fun Maggy London dress is really fun and I love the geometric print on this Julie Brown wrap. And for your super-bargain check out this Karen Kane and this Maggy London.


Deets! I'm wearing my Alexis Bittar ring (from the Zoe box but this one is similar) and my House of Harlow Mini Sunburst necklace. The dress pattern is little birds:


Eep! I know. I love it. I did eventually remember to grab my bag:


Mine is Andrea Brueckner (another saved eBay search) but it reminds me of the Mulberry Bayswater. For something in the same black satchel family, I think this Rebecca Minkoff is beautiful. I also think this Forever 21 bag is an amazing bargain option. My boots are old Vince Camuto but this style is a good update


PS. if you're an eBayer, beware of the ISSA for Banana Republic line that has totally messes up the search. Also, I find that ISSA runs a little bit small.
