Blake Lively Wore a Denim Micro-Mini With Naked Heels In NYC

One of the things that I love most about living in New York City is that no one bats an eye when you go all out in the dressing department, no matter what the occasion might be. I’ve slipped on the same sheer midi dress and kitten heels to run to Trader Joe’s that I’ve worn to dinner at Balthazar, and never was I made to feel over- or underdressed.

The same goes for Blake Lively, who was spotted at Carbone with her It Ends With Us co-stars wearing a full-on look, including a rhinestone-embellished denim micro-minidress by Self-Portrait, a matching Chanel crossbody bag, and the most perfect Gucci naked heels I’ve ever seen. Oh, and she topped the outfit off with a Dries Van Noten floor-length denim trench coat (casual). Carbone is no shabby dinner spot—the waiters do wear tuxedos after all—but I’ve seen people there wearing sweatsuits and sneakers, making me assume that Lively’s show-stopping take on the Canadian Tuxedo was the sartorial hit of the dinner rush. Then again, I’d expect nothing less from Serena van der Woodsen herself.

Ahead, shop Lively’s exact mini and jacket combo, both of which are still available (but selling out alarmingly quickly). And while you’re at it, scroll through some of the top denim items on the market this summer.
