When Sugar Daddy items find homes

I won't lie, I'm a little jealous of Evangeline Lily.

Not because of her so-far-fallen-its-name-is-actually-now-a-play-on-words "hit" show, not because of her good-but-not-my-kind-of-good figure, and certainly not because of her half-caveman, half-wood sprite looking boyfriend of three years, actor Dominic Monaghan.

No, I'm jealous of Ms. Lily for two reasons and two reasons alone: (1) she has my Sugar-Daddy-featured corset jacket by Rebecca Taylor and (2) she's wearing it in exactly the same way I would have - skinny black trousers, cutout stiletto pumps, upswept hair, short-dangle earrings - had I been able to scrape up the requisite $350 to acquire it myself.

Okay, that's not completely true. I would have nixed the necklace and the coral-colored bauble around her wrist, opted for a pair of round-toeds in either vamp-red or canary-yellow and finally, knowing this was a day event when the sun would be in full shine, I would have chosen a more matte, less sateen trouser fabric.

And yes, I probably would wear it to work. What of it?

*an example of one of my beloved Sugar Daddy items (corsage bustier dress by Alexander Mcqueen) not faring nearly as well can be seen below draped over the saggy-skinny corpse that is Courtney Love. What a friggin' waste.
