OOTD: “Bella In A Blue Dress”


Yesterday while in New York on set for the new Ashley Stewart photoshoot, I also was wearing the brand. It is the “taffeta bubble trim trench coat” but I wore it as a dress. It comes in 3 colors and I’m wearing it in “Diva Blue”. I was originally supposed to wear this last week as my finale dress in my fashion show for Ashley Stewart but had a change of plans. It worked out best because at that time I didn’t really have shoes to match it and low and behold, just as I was about to leave for NYC Thursday, my shoes that I ordered months ago from Nordstrom arrived on my porch. (They are replica Dior shoes, check out the comparison pic below). It’s amazing sometimes how outfits come together at the last minute. Anyway, since this was just a coat that I was wearing I just wore a plain black slip under it in case it happened to pop open at some point during the day, but it didn’t. The coat comes with a black belt but I swapped it out for this coral belt that was from the spring Ashley Stewart collection. (Great thing is if you like the coat, go in by today and get it for 30% off during the “Friends and Family” savings event).  All accessories are also in the store and brought out the coral color in the belt and shoes (But you can’t see them fully in my pics, sorry). These shoes may look uncomfortable but if it wasn’t for my feet being swollen from traveling I could have kept them on all day. They are showstoppers!

As I stated above my shoes are a top designer replica. Although the pair I’m wearing are designer too, they are at a fraction of the price of the original Dior shoes that they look like. Here’s the comparison:
