Business/Casual
9-5, then 7-3.
Lets start with 9-5 first.
The best non-label label in the whole world.
Now onto Luxirare’s invisible uniform. A simple shift dress with princess seams and a v-top stitch. This muslin may look easy but shift dresses with princess seams are actually one of the hardest things to fit. But then again, we all know the simplest things are the hardest to design/construct.
Top stitching the seams.
Now lets start building the layers of this motherf***ker.
Addition of the Girdle, an accessory I promised to incorporate into my wardrobe in my previous post and Velvet thigh highs. I love these because they are just thigh high leggings attached onto a heel basically. So comfortable. From snaz75. I own half of the sites merchandise and wear these cheap ass shoes more than designer shoes. Sad.
Possibly the most uncomfortable blazer, ever. The most impractical design choice. Perhaps this is the point, to challenge the wearer. Hell I can’t even place a shoulder bag with this!
Going!
Lets move onto after work. What to wear when you go out? Don’t ask me because I usually dress like this (scary!)
My fave black bag. They are out in EVERY color under the sun now but nothing beats the black. Nothing.
that blazer is undeniably epic. i love how you styled it. no fear.
thank you for sharing!

The jacket, the t-shirt dress love love love it!
what are you trying to do to me
that blazer needs to go into the gaga section of my closet at once, costume fierce amazing apparel i love to turn heads and thats exactly what that blazers about very sick find
but seriously who is it by?
Margiela
this is epic, I love your styling
is it possible that you would make another and sell that dress? I think it’s my favorite thing in the world
you are killing me!! the blazer is so undeniably margiela. love the thigh-hi attached boots too.
i have no words
the one with the nude shift dress is possibly my favorite outfit of yours…i’m obsessed with nude and you just made the obsession escalate to mt everest..
crazy
so good
Actually, Margiela hasn’t officially retired. He’s just cut back on how much hands-on designing he does for the brand. He’s still working and overseeing everything though.
Now that I can speak again… that fucking blazer totally takes my breath away, so weird that you posted it because i was watching some of his peak shoulder stuff on ebay last night… little did i know luxirare was going to post the real deal.
Both outfits are incredible.. the going out ones looks almost exactly like my going out clothes (plus a biker jacket) anyway I think you’re amazing and this post is my favorite of yours so far
You just put blogging into a new category. Brilliant!!! Love You!
wow! brilliant!
the plaid + lingerie + tshirt dress + brenda = amazing!!!
I’ve always loved that MMM jacket, but never once thought about how impractical it might be. My favorite element though is the Luxirare personal label. Love it as usual, and I must check out this shoe site that you talk about…
xxx,

ack, you are ridiculously amazing.
E. Pic.
extremely amazing outfits, esp the one with the crass shirt!
you look so much like jen brill. i love her.
You’re right, fully impractical but really, who cares when you look that awesome? Digging the zippy garter belt too.
the most inspirational blog on the web right now? i think so. that jacket is… ugh. beyond words.
did you use a pattern for that dress, if so, i need it! just bought some fabric and looking for a good princess-seam pattern. let me know.
Miss V xoxo
the jacket is 700 u.s so $1000 australian, don’t think i can get it quite yet!! but hopefully another one (in black) will pop up some time soon…
yeah it actually is really fucking weird.. right down to the smallest thing, you share my aesthetic in just about everything.!
To whoever made the comment about Gaga and Margiela – she rocks him in her concert. The beige jacket with the ginormous shoulders. I think she wore it when she came out singing “Boys, Boys, Boys” which made all the gays squeal with delight.
Please tell me that I will see you traipsing around the streets of Manhattan in that getup come May!!!!!!!!!
the jacket is amazing… tried it on myself and cried upon realizing i needed a smaller size which, of course, was not happening.
the dress is equally as amazing – props to you for making it yourself – it’s a gorgeous garment.
shuttup! this is so amazing! i love both looks. you pull them off well. seriously your wardrobe is killer. between you and foxy, my head starts spinning out of control.
i’ve probably said this before, but i so wish i could prance around like this on my time off. orange county is such an unforgiving hell hole. i’ve worn versions similar to this. big tee, flannel, biker jacket, fishnets and boot. you should have seen the awful stares i got. seriously,have you seen the real houswives of orange county? welcome to my life.
Impracticality aside, this whole ensemble and the building of it is quite astounding….
You’re the shit. Props for the Margiela and your label too!
You’re damn right about fitting a princess seam shift dress!
GIRL… you’re like a dream!
A-MAZING.
So amazing, love your posts, truly are gifts.

Oh my God.
Will everyone stop reminding me what a classless mess I am by dressing so wonderfully? It’s all I ask of you.
HI Luxirare!
I used my last e-mail (maryannhahn213@yahoo.com) to e-mail about the cod. And I thought you didn’t reply, and I got kinda sad about it. But then, I checked my spam, and there it was! Since March!!! Lame. Anyways, thanks for that e-mail, it means a lot!
I really like this post, because it just feels so legit ( I think I’ve mentioned this before). And you have knowledge of even the minute details. I’m not a fashion/art major, or whatever, but it is something I really appreciate.
loveee!
Maryann,
Yes I remember writing to you I’m glad you finally got the e-mail!
Hope you had luck with the dish..
Great stuff, love your style so much!
Love your blog
Love this post

You can get away with shirts as dresses because your the perfect height for it. Whenever I've tried it's like…no, pants time. Hopefully soon I'll be able to start wearing them once a big problem is goneeeee once and hopefully for all.
Miss your face <3
the best post in the last six months
carlotta
GAWD! you just killed me.
but seriously with that finishing line and crisp texture that is captured so well in the photos – who needs practicality rite?
jesus fucking christ luxirare!! i am literally speechless. i’ve been dying for a great chainmail cape since i dressed as Joan of Arc for halloween a while ago. you rock.
i don’t even know where to start. i pretty much share the views of Manfox. Speechless and just amazed!
That blazer is out of this world. Love the girdle too!
-X-
That jacket is unbelievably unbelievable. May look a bit odd from behind but who cares.. its amazing! Paired with your invisible dress (love the label) and the leather girdle…I’m stunned. Seriously.
THIS IS JUST SO GOOD……….!
Fantastic look. Love the dress.
what is the link for where you got your t-shirt? its amazing!!!!
Amy Green:
e-bay.
your shots, and of course the clothing, are all absolutely amazing. are you using a professional camera? and who helps you take your photos?
xxx
You might want to take some more fitting at the top. I don’t know about the fabric choice, it looks like a twill? Try something lightweight like a cotton jersey or a poplin that will provide you the structure but allow you some movement. No bust darts? Either that or take it in at the sides.
jessica-
the darts were taken in at the princess seams. There are no bust darts in a princess seam pattern because they are integrated into the seams…
oh and this is a stretch fabric not a twill.
i might have not said this before, but: overall you (and foxyman) have the raddest style among all those fashion bloggers.
this is like the real deal. i don't need to see an outfit copied from the h&m ad's, i want to see the unique style you have!
love that!!
*—* i like it
this post is epic!
That shit was intense. <33333333
You remind me so much of Jen Brill. Have you ever thought about filling in your eyebrows? I think they would add some more depth to your face.

stop being a creep
You are so talented…I love that jacket so much
That blazsr is freaking epic, it might be one of the most amazing garments I have ever seen.
OMGAHHHH.
i will buy that blazer off your back.
i say set up an ETSY and you'll bank!

I would like to get across my gratitude for your kind-heartedness giving support to people who require help on this important content. Your real commitment to passing the solution throughout ended up being really invaluable and has regularly helped guys just like me to realize their aims. This useful guidelines entails so much to me and especially to my mates. With thanks; from everyone of us.
Unquestionably believe that which you said. Your favorite justification appeared to be on the internet the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed while people consider worries that they plainly don’t know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thanks
