We’ve all heard the question about which came first, the chicken or the egg, but what about this fashion conundrum: Do you buy your shoes to match a dress or do you buy a dress to match your shoes?

I mean, take today’s VPOD, for instance. This fabulous little 1980s sweater dress by Romeo Gigli is crying out for some tights and ankle boots. And, well, if you’re already splurging on a pair of this season’s trendy boots, you want to be sure you have plenty to wear them with. After all, didn’t you convince yourself they were affordable by computing their cost-per-wear?

And while those boots might pinch or rub mercilessly, this frock is guaranteed to be comfortable. Few flatter the body in knit better than Romeo Gigli, who has a special knack for designing knits that cling perfectly without ever being too restrictive or tight.

So it’s a perfect Romeo find for a vintage fashionista!
