Lust or Must: Fausto Puglisi embroidered wool crepe long dress

I seriously haven't heard of the designer's name but I am sure this won't be the first and last time you'll see his designs on this blog because of this ultra expensive dress. This wool crepe long sleeved dress with two long side slits is embellished with Swarovski crystals. Of course something intricately done like this dress is available only in pre-order and you can order at luisaviaroma.com for $29,723. 

Lust or Must: Dolce and Gabbana embroidered strapless dress

 This Dolce & Gabbana embroidered dress costs $21,000 considering the amount of labor put into making this dress. It may be OTT for the most of us but if you have access to couture and earning millions of dollars, it is no big deal... you may get to wear it for free.

This is available at luisaviaroma.com.

Dsquared rabbit trim Swarovski tulle long dress

I bet animal rights activists will not be happy seeing this rabbit trimmed  dress by DSQUARED. Regardless, I think this deserves a post in this blog for one reason--overly extravagant.

This is available at luisaviaroma.com for $15,397.

Dress of the Day: Versace fringed tie dyed gabardine dress

This Versace dress from the label's Spring 2013 collection is so pretty, so intricately made and so expensive! Is it okay for you to spend more than $32,000 dollars for a dress that you can only wear once? Oh, wait... it is currently on sale at luisaviaroma.com so you actually save $10,000.

Celine Dion wore this dress during the 2012 Bambi Awards, it was actually unexpected of her to wear something like this in her concert. I was imagining Selena Gomez or Kate Bosworth and other younger and more hip stars to wear something sparkly as this dress. It was brave of Celine to wear this.

Jennifer Lopez was also photographed wearing this dress last February for Harper's Bazaar magazine. 

Both divas looked gorgeous!

Lust/Must: Christian Louboutin 'Pilule' capsule shoulder bag

Lust/Must: Roksanda Ilincic 'Phoenix' feather-embellished cropped silk jacket

Roksanda Ilincic 'Phoenix' feather embellished cropped jacket, $2790 at Net-A-Porter.

This jacket looks cartoon-ish on this photo alone.

On Roksanda Ilincic's Fall 2011 runway show, it looks really different.

I think Net-A-Porter styled it pretty well.

I think it will work on pants, too.

Lust/Must: Christian Louboutin 'Very Mix' 150mm spiked pumps

Func-shoe-nality described these Christian Louboutin 'Very Mix' 150mm pumps as deadly--so deadly that it makes all the devils dead jealous. She doesn't come cheap, you can have her if you have $3,595 to spend.

Hmnnn... what do you think?

It is a modern take on Victorian dresses. Pretty expensive, yes. This is how it looks like when worn.

Lust/Must: Alberta Ferretti cut-out silk apron-dress

Alberta Ferretti cut-out silk apron-dress, $741 previously $2,470 at The Out Net.

Hush...

This isn't exactly a dress. It is an apron that you wear on top of any dress as separate to create a different and edgier look. Take a look at the example from The Out Net after the jump.

Lust/Must: Herve Leger strapless runway dress with exaggerated hips

Herve Leger metallic dress, $2,500 at Neiman Marcus.

What do you think? It is futuristic and the exaggerated hip emphasizes the waist and grommets are a surprise too. I have hips so I really don't need them to be emphasized even more. How about you?

Keri Hilson's Alana Hale lace pumps that mimics a peacock

Keri Hilson rocked some crazy heels during the Critics Choice Awards. There is nothing crazy about her mini dress from Aurelio Costarella but those Alana Hale lace pumps are killing it.

These are custom made shoes. Metallics, pearls and lace galore.

Peacocks?

Lust/Must: Valentino lace trim cashmere blend shawl

This Valentino lace trim cashmere blend shawl is so luxurious.  You will definitely feel warm wearing this... you should be because this costs $1,395 at Net-A-Porter.  Even if it costs that much, I will have to give in and consider it as a must.  Christmas and Winter aren't over, indulge in a few designer items as a gift to yourself for being a good girl.

Lust/Must: Lanvin python print silk trench coat

Lanvin python print trench coat, $4,580 at Net-A-Porter.  Whether or not you have the cash to stash, this is purely lust.  You can still be warm wearing a different kind of trench coat for a fraction of the cost.  And it is made of silk... you don't want to brave the hail and sleet wearing this.

Lust/Must: Brunello Cucinelli scarf

I know it is freezing cold because of the winter breeze and we need to have something to keep us warm--a scarf perhaps.  I have found this Brunello Cucinelli scarf that is made of cashmere and silk.  To feel it on your skin, you have to pay $1,065 for this.  I know it is made of cashmere, but, does it really justify the price of this scarf?  We can all be warm and comfortable with other scarves for a fraction of the cost, right?
