Black and Red with Attitude

Fashion Blogger Black and Red Midi Dress at the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II

Last week when discussing the blog my Mom asked when I was going to share more about Milan Fashion Week – well Lady, here you go!  Before the Laura Biagiotti Show I made sure to photography my outfit! I had wanted to get up super, super early to shoot at the famed Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II with no people but sleep pervaded and I got there about 9:30am.  Granted, it was a Sunday morning so there far less people than if it had been a weekday but the luxury shopping mall was still quite crowded. But this black and red midi dress was begging to be photographed. 

Nevertheless I set up my tripod and spent a good 20 minutes getting these shots and to be honest, I am quite pleased with how they turned out.   Take a look at how I styled this red and black midi dress, complete with thigh high slit, with black over the knee boots and a black Italian Prada bag. Take a look:

And while the holding the bag up photo may seem out of place I thought it was only fitting that my Prada bag (which actually says Prada Milano on it) should be held up in front of the flagship store – it is not where I bought it, but it was almost like it was retuning home, no? 

What do you think of this black and red midi dress?

    I love this dress and tall high heel black boots on you. You picked one of the best ventures of Milan. I love your Prada bag too and you a picture right in front of the Prada mothership store. Your dress combined with those boots does show a lot of attitude. The sexy slit does help. Boyfriend would love this dress on me.

    Gorgeous! I was just there a few weeks ago, and I’m impressed how small the crowds are in the background. And love that dress <3

    You look sooo pretty in this post. Really, I can tell that the whole outfit makes you feel like a million dollars, you go girl.

    I want those boots, the dress and the purse. Great combo.

    What a gorgeous venue too. Is that an indoor shopping mall/ arcade? Nothing like that in the US for sure.

    It’s a fabulous dress on you. I really like you and red and the slit is very sexy without being too much. The boots of fantastic too.

    Of course crushing on that Prada bag. Doesn’t hurt it matches the outfit precisely.

    Awesome photos.

    That is some serious attitude but you surely can pull it off.

    Love the dress and the boots and the backdrop. A+++.

    Love this look with the boots Kelly! And the people didn’t detract from the gorgeous building!
