Going Greek

Obakki Dress, Stuart Weitzman Sandals, John Hardy Jewelry, Zadig and Voltaire Clutch, Oliver Peoples Sunglasses, Cartier Watch.

I bought this dress in the early summer, at Yellow Dog, and had to be talked into trying it on because it had absolutely no hanger appeal whatsover! Since it really doesn’t take all that much effort to twist my arm, my friend, Venetta, who manages the boutique, easily convinced me to slip it on. Lo and behold, the dress changed entirely once it was on the body—in this case, mine. It reminded me of a chic Green toga, if such a thing ever existed, and I thought these gladiator-like sandals by Stuart Weitzman completed the look in the right way.

The morals of this fable are: never judge a dress by its look on a hanger and going Greek never felt so good!
