Crippled yet Cute: What to Wear When Injured

Hey!

I hope you enjoyed your three day weekends! For me, the days are just starting to bleed into each other…being at home is restful, but I’m starting to feel the itch for outside!
Though I’m supposed to be on bedrest for another week, I’m already wondering how I can work a swollen, patched up foot to hot events.
I decided to look no further than 2007’s most Fashionable Diva, Rihanna…

…who kept it moving last August with an injury. She didn’t let a minor setback stop her swagger!
For red carpets she popped on pairs of long wide legged pants that skimmed over her bandages…
…and ditched crutches in favor of a black coordinating cane.

When in the club, she worked it in a sweetheart tube and trousers….

…but smartly found the nearest seat!
When she chose to don a dress, she made sure her boot matched her ensemble…
…and if anything, didn’t forget…
…to rock at least one hot shoe!
If you’re afflicted, a few items to help you maintain your sexy:
Bottom Row: Nicole Miller Strapless Bow Dress, $230, www.bluefly.com; Laundry by Shelli Segal Bubble Dress, $195, www.bloomingdales.com.
Only one more week off my feet. I’m on fewer meds, so I’ll see about more updates!
Smootches!
