Lily of the ages: Bon Voyage!

Here is another beautiful vintage Lily piece, the Bon Voyage Dress, circa 2007.

Made of a vintage looking dotted navy cotton, with a striped band detail at the hem, this dress is light to wear and great for a hot summer day. Top that off with cute cap sleeves and a sleek crossover neckline, and you've got a great dress for the summer nights as well. Nicole has paired it with her sweet red peep toes and one of our new leather Cameo belts.

Lily Inspiration: Blog Fluevog

About a month ago, I set out on a quest to find the perfect pair of shoes to compliment my growing collection of Smoking Lily skirts and dresses.

I walk a lot, and I'm a mom, so I was looking for shoes that were comfortable, durable and strong enough to hold my weight plus my 38 lb. daughter!

After much research, and a post from the shoemaker's Facebook Fan page, I decided on Fluevog's Operetta Malibrans in Wine. Heart & Sole on Cook Street had just my size (a half size no less) and once I put them on I knew they were everything I was searching for.

My Fluevogs look great with my a-line Portobella and Button skirts, and librarian sexy with my pencil skirt Petite Anglais in black. Complete with some fishnet hose and my Lily dress, I have a statement garment worthy of any fancy event. Also, the reverse side of my leather Cameo belt puts the finishing touches on any outfit, since the colour matches exactly.

I am so pleased with my Fluevog find that I even have my eyes on a pair of black leather knee-high Bellevue Boots - Mattie Silks, which will go so very well with my grey bamboo Hama Hama dress come autumn. Oh Fluevog, Smoking Lily loves you!
