Roving Reporter: Vera Wang Lavender Label

I work from home and keep the TV on most of the day for background noise, so I'm sick of hearing about the latest shop to go lower-price because our economy is currently as dead as Chris Brown's career. I'll save you the story about price points on Lavender Label, but suffice it to say it's more affordable than many lines. Plus, like Jenni Kayne, LL now offers shoes.

LL keeps the sheer trend going with this 60s-appropriate mini, but to me the boots feel a bit punk. The more generations the merrier?

The capelet-cardigan combo makes an interesting balance for the no-bra sheer top (and avoids making friends blush), and with understated Capris and flats, it's not vulgar.

The trench is classic, and the amethyst shade will make sure you stand out - without breaking the bank.
