So cute in my favorite kind of way. 3/4-sleeve Jeweled Owl and Lace Applique Dress $4995 ..

I couldn't wear this, but I like how it falls and drags on the ground in the back. Owl & Squirrel-print Gown with Jewel Button Shoulders $6,495 ..

This black gown is so elegant and also falls beautifully behind the wearer. Lace-appliqued Georgette Gown $8,095 ..

Designer Marathon - Miu Miu

And five. I like to think that kittens "miu" or "mew". If you're a nerd, you know that that is how you pronounce the coefficient of friction.

Designer Marathon - Carmen Marc Valvo

Four !! This is another designer that I love for their gowns. I clearly am still a little girl that wants to be a princess. Do you know any sing;e-and-looking princes? 

The pictures, prices, and items below are from BergdorfGoodman.com.

Purple is my favorite color. I like gowns where you can't see your feel, but if I wore one I would probably trip knowing my coordination, and also they would get dirty dragging on the floor, right? Neither of those things would stop me from wearing one if I had it and a place to wear it. Beaded Halter-neck Floral Gown $1,320 ..

Beaded-neck Halter Top & Abstract Floral-print Ball Skirt $595 ..

And if you don't like that skirt and would rather the top of that outfit be with something simpler, the Halter Beaded-neck Gown $1,075 ..

BONUS .. Carmen Marc Valvo has a line of swimwear.

Massai Glamour Bandeau Swim Top & Strappy Bottom $87 + &75 ..

And something to go with that bikini, the Mesh Boat-neck Cover-up Tunic $127 ..

Designer Marathon - Roberto Cavalli

The third. I like Roberto Cavalli because they have exquisite gowns.

The pictures, prices, and items below are from BergdorfGoodman.com.

It might be getting lost in this upcoming generation, but you can be totally sexy without showing every inch of your skin. This dress covers almost everything and looks spectacular. Long-sleeve Leopard-stripe Deco Gown $1,735 ..

This gown looks so simple and sophisticated. Plunging X-back Ornament Gown $3,920 ..

The color on this gown is what brought me to it. Then, looking at it closer, I can see so much detail in it, which means so much thought went in to making it. I want to make something like that. Beautiful. Sleeveless Degrade-knit Gown $3,285 ..

This one also has excellent color, impeccable attention-to-detail, and I like how the bottom falls. Long-sleeve Pointelle Knit Gown $6,150 ..

The gown below is from Net-A-Porter.com ..

Cutout Leopard-print Silk-chiffon Gown $6,395 ..

Designer Marathon - Aquazzura

Number 2. Once again, all pictures, prices, and items are coming from BergdorfGoodman.com. 

This designer brand has some fantastic shoes. I already posted one pair in the Bergdorf Goodman post, and here are some others. I can only dream that one day I will be successful enough to be able to wear gowns and outfits that will go with these shoes. And wear them somewhere where people will get to see me wear them and appreciate them.

Blondie Honeycomb Tie-back Sandal $895 ..

Follow Me Snakeskin Cage Bootie $1,150 ..

Caged Peekaboo Snake Sandal $890 ..

Slone Slit-front Suede Bootie $595 ..

Carly Suede Fringe Mid-Calf Boot $1,175 ..

Designer Marathon - Alice + Olivia

I'm going to do a series of posts with each one focusing on a different designer. All of the pictures, prices, and items are from BergdorfGoodman.com. 

I like Alice + Olivia because their stuff is very feminine and elegant. They use color and also have shiny things. 

This dress catches the eye with its metallic shimmer, and then keeps it because of the design on the fabric. Also .. deep V. Pacey Metallic Jacquard Structured Dress $396 ..

Anyone could wear this sweater; its color is so basic, and the cut is so flattering. Whether it be taking a walk or sitting at home, I can see this sweater being perfect. Mixed-knit Loose Sweater $348 ..

This delicate gown will allow you to look elegant and also show off some leg. The bag also has an even deeper V than the front, so if you have awesome lats or a bacne free back, voila. Mia Front-slit Lace Gown $396 ..

I wouldn't wear this because of my broad shoulders, but do you think you could wear this anywhere where people wouldn't see the deep blue in the corner of their eye (or in front of their eyes) and not at least do a double take, if not just stare? What a wonderful color. Teifer Feather-pattern Metallic Ball Gown $1,096 ..

Simple, yet you could wear this to a nice event. There's a lot of detail on this one mini dress. Emmie Lace Slip Dress $330 ..

This dress is cut in my favorite way. It doesn't make the hips look like they just spring off the side of your body, but instead, the dress flows from your tiny waist, down a smooth slight curve to your hips and right on past to the ground. I can imagine myself having a very long and powerful stride in this Chantal Floral-print Sleeveless Gown $1,298 ..
