Of Puffs and Proms: Miu Miu Sleeves for Spring 2010

Blame it on Anne of Green Gables (which I’m rereading at the moment), but I’m craving a puff sleeve.

Just look at the fantastic leg-o-mutton sleeve on this Miu Miu blouse, paired with an austere pointy collar in a lively red print.

 
And these sleeves below remind me (just a little) of the dress that I had commissioned for my—umm—prom some years ago:  (Mine were more elaborate by far!! eek!!)

Even thought prom season is in the past for this grad, one could always take a promenade around the lake or about the town.

If puffs are not your pleasure, then this dress is a gem—worn with a schoolmarm-y cardigan for day.

The long rat-tail braid, though, is best left to fairy tales.  I prefer shorter and fuller.
