cropped-leather-jacket-with-maxi-dress-max-co-tiered-ruffle-maxi-dress-milan-fashion-week-ss17-street-styleHi everyone and I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Mine was perfectly low-key, and as always, a little too short. I still have a few looks and shows from Milan Fashion Week to share with you guys, so I hope you’ll bear with me since I know the runway reviews have made for lengthy posts. I’d love to know what you all prefer: do you enjoy seeing photos from the shows, just the outfits I wore, or a mix of both like I’ve been doing?max-co-tiered-ruffle-maxi-dress-leather-jacket-with-maxi-dress-outfit-milan-fashion-week-ss17-blogger-street-styleThis tiered ruffle maxi dress was a last-minute purchase I made before fashion week at one of the Max & Co. boutiques in Rome. I had never shopped there before, but now I’m a total fan. Olivia Palermo is the brand’s new ambassador and since I adore her style, I guess it’s to be expected I’d like the clothing, right? (Oh, and I happened to see her during fashion week, too…more about that later in the post!) Max & Co. is a less-expensive branch of Max Mara, and although I did find a few stores in the U.S., so far it looks like they are few and far between.black-leather-jacket-with-maxi-dress-and-chanel-bag-milan-fashion-week-street-style-september-2016This dress looks beautiful alone, but I added a cropped leather jacket for a little edgier appeal.max-co-tiered-ruffle-maxi-dress-pinko-cropped-leather-jacket-chanel-jumbo-black-caviar-with-silver-hardwareAs I was editing these photos, I realized about half of them were skirt-twirling poses, but with a design like this, I just couldn’t help myself! I love when the natural movement of clothing is captured in a photo—it’s my favorite type of shot. And is it just me, or does a dress that swirls instantly make you feel more glamorous?max-co-tiered-ruffle-maxi-dress-maxi-dress-with-leather-jacket-outfit-milan-fashion-week-ss17-street-stylemax-co-ruffle-maxi-dress-jeffrey-campbell-brocade-embroidered-booties-how-to-wear-embroidered-booties-milan-fashion-week-ss17These booties were another pre-fashion week purchase and made a bold statement with my all-black outfit. Full disclosure: my husband hates these booties, and while we usually agree on most style choices, I can’t get enough of these—sorry babe! Keep on scrolling for photos and a review of the Ermanno Scervino show.

When asked what inspired Ermanno for the new collection, his answer was simply: ‘Beauty’, which I think sums it up perfectly.

While standing elbow to elbow and jostling for the best view, it’s not always easy to get the best shots, so I want to thank my husband for working extremely hard so that I could share these photos with my readers—he did an amazing job, right?! The other memorable moment from the show came at the end: as I was watching guests exit while my husband packed up his equipment, I happened to see Olivia Palermo—and yes, she’s just as gorgeous in person as we see online and in magazines. Forget movie stars and singers—I get starstruck seeing my favorite fashion icons!
