Designer Jill Stuart’s fabulous creations, like this Paris Karlie floral blouse, at Chickdowntown.com. What a romantic and delicate print ~ CC is smitten![Bio adapted from the Chickdowntown blog :]
Jill Stuart is nothing short of an adolescent fashion prodigy. This New Yorker launched her self-titled women’s brand in 1993, but has been surrounded by the fashion world since she was a young girl. In the ’60s, her parents owned a popular ladies boutique in Manhattan that prompted her teenage years to be spent designing in such as jewelry and handbags. At the age of 15, Bloomingdales picked up her first line of accessories. These designs were her foundation in the ’80s, which ultimately propelled her to create her first line of women’s clothing. Today, Jill Stuart is known for her supreme ability incorporate the latest trend in her designs, no matter the genre: feminine, funky, formal or flashy. She branches off of these ideas and puts her own hip twist on them, while keeping her love of ultra-girly and vintage apparel intact. Her signatures include flirty dresses, fabulous accessories, painted-on jeans and accents of lace and floral – all providing an air of sensuality, while still maintaining a classic appeal.
Chickdowntown.com has lots of other fabulous Jill Stuart pieces. Behold:

This fierce Jill Stuart wide black Shelly belt. CC adores the double buckle!

another fabulous, fabulous giveaway!!!! I have a huge weakness for jill stuart-I'm totally in love with her Purple Adela dress (from the chickdowntown site) and of course her signature slouchy boots. They're both drool-worthy, for sure :-) I would probably pair the slouchy boots with some opaque tights and a mini dress with a cute school-boy blazer for the fall. ohh, I'm getting tingly even thinking about it--I hope I win!!! :-)
Love the Jill Stuart skirt. Those puff sleeve gloves left me weak at the knees-I'm ordering them in black-did you see the black patent also!
I love the big purple flowers in the hair!
