Jason Wu Fall 2011: Splurge or Steal

So many beautiful items in Jason Wu's Fall Collection which is inspired by the restoration of Versaille.  What a wonderful concept, I thought, but how to attain the style of this collection with a more wonderful price point? My mission was to seek out visually similar items with a more gentle price tag...

{Splurge: Jason Wu Lace trimmed wool sweatshirt style sweater: $1,195}



{Steal: LOFT lace sweatshirt: $59.50}

{Splurge: Jason Wu Silk-chiffon & lace blouse: $1,495}

{Steal: LOFT Lace applique short sleeve top: $44.50}

{Splurge: Jason Wu Lace Halter Top: $1,295}

{Steal: LOFT Lace shell: $69.50}


{Splurge: Jason Wu Belted houndstooth sheath dress: $2,650}

A whimsy element I am excited to try shown in Wu's Fall show is polka dot hosiery:

So fun and feminine!!
