Supermarket Sweep!

Ok, so I'm making out my grocery list and I couldn't resist posting this editorial today. I have to go grocery shopping sometime this week. I have like 3 eggs, 2 slices of bread and a drop of milk left. HaHaHa Anybody else dread this task? LOL

Maybe I need to glam up more when I go. But they always have women on the registers. I guess store owners know guys would break down and give more discounts. HaHa Well anyway, have you ever gone super glam to a grocery store/supermarket? Can you imagine the looks if we walked in dressed like this? HaHa

This is for 2012 February's Vogue Latin America. The photographer is Jean-Francois Campos and the model is Constance Jablonski. Her wardrobe consists of Dolce & Gabbana, Prabal Gurung, and Jason Wu. Hair by Dennis Devoy. Makeup by Brigitte Reis Anderson. Fashion Editor is Sarah Gore Reeves.


...And this is my facial expression once the bill is tallied :) Have a great Tuesday everybody!

  1. I never dress up for the grocery store but this makes me feel like I SHOULD! I love the 3rd photo with the maxi dress especially!

  5. Haha! LOVE THIS! We'd definitely get a lot of attention if we went to the market like this ... and that last expression is priceless! I don't mind grocery shopping if I (a) have the time so I don't have to rush and (b) can go to a markt that's a little upscale in feeling so it's a little more fun visually ... we have a market called "Papa Joe's" and the vegetable displays are almost works of art, the pastry case is filled with beautiful creations, you can carry a glass of wine around while you shop, it's two stories with a restaurant on the second floor ... you get the drift. Makes going to my regular store down the street somewhat uneventful! lol Thanks for your sweet note yesterday, love! The new post is now up! xoxo

  8. I love this photo series. She just looks so blasé about the whole thing. I think it would actually be fun to go to the market all dressed and glammed up lol.

  10. I think grocery shopping would be much funner if everyone was dressed like this! I don't dress THAT glam to grocery shop, but I sorda dress up everyday. I especially love the long light blue print dress, so pretty!

  11. I would love if everyone went to the supermarket dressed like this, far better than some that I see go in!! How fun!! Love the use of colour and prints, really wonderful!! I'll need to go shopping soon ;) xxx

  12. It is a dreaded task I just went last night. I sometimes go right after work and with what I wear to work so I may get looks depending on what clothes and shoes im wearing but I try to finish shopping right away.

  13. Haha I LOVE this! I work in a bank and like to overdress a little, so I have gone to the grocery store after work before. One of the employees complimented me and said that she loved to see that some people still dressed nicely (Little did she know the day before I had went there in some SUPER crappy sweats!)!

  14. You NEVER know who you will meet. Plus, the grocery store has a bunch of single men looking for advice on which one is the better peach! hahahaha

    Great post!

  15. I am allergic to grocery shopping Kim! Maybe if I dressed like that I might enjoy it!!

  17. Girl I NEVER have food in my fridge... and a trip to the grocery stores usually involves sweats and a baseball cap (sooo not blog worthy) - although it would be fun to get dolled up for some milk ;)

  21. Haha I never get too glammed up to go shopping unless I'm off out for the evening and wanted to pick up a snack or whatever beforehand. Otherwise I tend to go first thing on a sunday with unwashed/brushed hair and in plain comfy clothes, hehe! xo

  22. What a great post! I did actually go to the supermarket today and put on my faux fur stole (mainly because it was so very cold here) but I did feel more glamorous than usual! Not nearly as ultra glamorous as these ladies though!!

  30. love the shots..and glad you named all those who are behind it..i remember we entered the grocery store once and we were on our way back from a day out..i felt i had too much on for grocery shopping..and so did the others staring a us..but i have seen quite a few hostel students who turn up there in style..so i don't feel uncomfortable doing a bit too much sometimes..

  35. What a great editorial!
    I went to the grocery store once in a dress in heels and I felt like everyone was looking at me! I felt so out of place! haha

  36. I'm totally with you Grocery shopping can feel like such a chore sometimes! On the other hand, when I go to this boutiquey grocery store I feel like it's such a treat. Gourmet cheese and oils...count me in!

    ReplyDelete
  37. haha...can't say I ever dress up like this to go to the grocery store! I despise grocery shopping, ick. Maybe, we could pretend those aisles are catwalks and just work it!! : )

  38. Oohh love the styling and clothes used in this shoot! I think dressing up to go grocery shopping is a great idea! It will take the mundanity and humdrum out of the task. Thanks for your super sweet comment hun. Made my day!

  44. What a cool shoot, and really thought provoking given how most dress for the grocery store. Outside of the coffee shop and CVS, the grocery store is the only place I will go in workout clothes (can't believe I'm mentioning this on the internet!). Love that second to last picture, sooo lovely!

  45. I actually really love this set of photos. I have a dream of actually dressing up for everything now, so this provides actual visual inspiration!

  46. This reminds me of the feature in Us Weekly, "Celebrities - they're just like us!" but then sometimes they include one photo of a celebrity "unlike" us. One time it was Jessica Simpson at the grocery store in a tiny dress and super high heels. Although I've never glammed up for the grocery store, I love grocery shopping. Am I weird? :)

    ReplyDelete
  47. I usually dress up for the grocery store - but it;s because I go after work. I get stared at like an alien. With heels I am often 6'2ish and so that will get you stared at on it's own -but waltz into a small town grocery store in my funky ensembles you're sure to be the odd duck.

    I love those photos by the way! :)

  51. I love the red bag, but what is the spiky thing hanging off it? This reminds me of photos I see of Dita von Teese going grocery shopping in some incredible vintage dresses and heels.

  52. i've never gone THAT glam, but i have made a stop at the store on my way out (on the town), but don't think it comes close to these girls! gorgeous pieces here!

    and this morning...seriously..we had NO bread, NO lettuce for my lunch salad, and just enough milk for mini's lunch!

    ReplyDelete

  57. Hello! Who DOESN'T dress like that for the grocery store?! Just kidding! But I have to mention, certain people in certain cities in Texas are pretty dressed up for the grocery store. I remember my first experience at the grocery store after college {just moved to this particular city}. I dragged my very casual self to the store and felt very underdressed! It was crazy! Anyhoo, thanks for sharing this editorial! I love it! {And LOL@ your "expression" after the bill is tallied!}
