One of our favorite purchases this summer was this dress from Forever 21 for $24.80. The fraying of the chiffon flower trim on the dress is in similar style of that trim on this Chanel blouse pictured first. For the price difference the essence of the look is definitley worth it!

Another star of the young Russian “bratski”, Kira is a phenomenon in Moscow where she has her own chain of high street stores which specializes in cheap-chic apparel similar to that of H&M and Topshop.
