I love finding Piazza Sempione at the thrift stores, just LOVE it.  First thing I noticed about this dress was its shade of pink, its not that in your face shade of pink, it’s more subtle but then again it’s Italian.  Paola Toscano, who took over the creative reins at Piazza Sempione in March, said her mission as design director was to “give the brand a defined identity.”  And in her debut collection, Toscano struck a balance between masculine and feminine in snappy, silk organza pantsuits, oversize white poplin shirts and high-waisted pencil skirts, some sporting suspenders.  Dresses came ladyfied  with arty overtones, like a slim gauzy linen printed with paint splotches and another shift with raised graphic shapes woven into the material, showing the designer’s flair with interesting fabrics.  I later found this Dior saddle shoulder handbag that I think screams out “come get me Spring!”  The red leather lining on the bag really does compliment the pink dress and then with that splash of yellow,  good god it screams out more than come get me Spring but like bring me a cocktail too !

This entire ensemble cost me $9.00.  I know you can close your mouth now.  Don’t forget to check out The Thrifters Boutique located on top right corner and follow me on Twitter & Facebook.  Toodles for now.  Daniel
