that is super cute. i've heard of vanessa bruno but don't have any first-hand knowledge of the brand.

Lilykind · Hermes

I know of her sequinned tote bags, which are nice, and I've seen a few pieces in person. From what I can tell, she makes high-quality stuff...probably nicer than MJ (but then MJ is "the hack"...). No clue about sizing though.

That sweater is very cute...much cuter than the MJ sweater IMO.

Ally S · Kate Spade

I have her of her mentioned in different magazines but can't vouch to the quality. It's cute though.

FashionPrincess · Hermes

I don't know anything firsthand about that brand either, all I do know is it is sold on La Redoute, I remember seeing that sweater on the site this fall.

When I was in France this summer, several cute little boutiques had Vanessa Bruno. There was one gauzy white top, sort of Chloe-inspired, that was 140 Euros and I still think about. I should have bought it...Her stuff in the boutiques was expensive, but her stuff on LaRedoute is much cheaper- so I'm wondering if they are last seasons merchandise or if she does a cheaper line?

I did win the auction - the seller is in Toulouse, France and I think she said the item was $180 Euros retail? Bean - I found the item by searching for a different thing and then looking at the seller's 'other items' list. Now I am all excited to get this! It was $20 shipping from France so I hope it doesn't take too long.
