Fantasy Buy of the Week: Celine ribbon trim top
Let us just start this post by stating up front that The Fashion Police would never pay £550/$1000 for a top. Never. In fact, it makes us feel faint just thinking about that – pass the smelling salts, would ya?
With that said, this is a fantasy buy, with “fantasy” being the operative word, and this little purple top by Celine is pretty cute, in a simple-but-stylish kinda way. We love the ribbon trim around the neckline, which is, of course, the stand-out detail of this, and we agree with Net-a-Porter’s assessment that it would look good with jeans or a pair of tailored black pants.
Just not £500 worth of “good”, obviously.
Buy: Celine Ribbon trim top
I love this, despite that it’s also a fantasy buy for me. I love how it’s sleeveless, so you could pair it with a cardigan and not have thick, lumpy arms.
It is a nice fantasy buy!!! I love the rich purple coloring.
The color is very nice, but I don’t think there’s any clothing item I’d pay £550!
Twee and overpriced, sorry.
Look at it like this: more for you, right? IF you’d shell out 550 pounds.. gasp.
i agree with zoe
Great top..
Bad, bad price!..
Does it come with the promise of a good life, health insurrance and a signed picture of Mr. Obama? haha..
Just another case of overprizing because it’s been blessed with a “Celine” tag on it
