Dita von Teese And Her Vintage Umbrella
When I saw these images of Dita von Teese out and about in LA and on the long weekend, they brought happiness to my heart. Let me count the ways.
First, I love her shoes — patent black ballet pumps with the bow detail. I have very similar ones from Jimmy Choo that I am saving for the new season. I can't wait to break them out.
Second, the wider leg pants are a triumph. Dita seldom wears the trousers, as you will know, so it is great that she selects the wider leg when she does. It is more flattering, more retro and more ladylike.
Third, and most importantly, the divine pink vintage umbrella. With the black lace detail. And this is what brings her entire outfit back to her signature style. Just that one detail. Perfection. Well played Dita.
