My lovely vacay is over so we are back to regular Grunge Queen programming - sorry for the spotty posts of late!I have a definite thing for the lovely clothing made by local Toronto designer Franco Mirabelli. Unfortunately I can't afford to buy it new, being grungy and all.
The great thing: the designer's styles are so classic, and the fabric (all very fine and bought in Italy) of such great quality that if you find his pieces used, they look brand new. It's also made right here in Toronto, Canada - an increasingly rare thing in the designer apparel world as many who are as large-scale as Mirabelli have gone off-shore.
Take this lovely grey dress by Franco Mirabelli that I found at the Goodwill on St. Clair West in Toronto.
It was $14.99 less 50 percent (50 percent off days are frequent), which brings the total to a whopping $7.49!Yippee, I finally have a Franco Mirabelli dress! I will have to email Franco and let him know how much I love it!
I'm wearing it here with a thrifted sequined purse by Danier Leather ($3.99 or so if memory serves), and some new-new sexy sandals I bought on clearance last week for $29. So the entire outfit minus the jewellery = $40.48.
Grunge Queen success!
