{ costume of the day } party weapon

last night i had the delightful pleasure of being invited to a dinner party to celebrate erin fetherston's inauguration as creative consultant for juicy couture. having built a career on the exaltation of all things girly, i think she's a great fit for the brand ~ and the honor could not have been bestowed on a lovelier person.

i wore a lace-edged dress that felt appropriately erin-ish ~ but traded it out for far edgier leather shorts when allowed an after-hours (totally gratis!) shopping spree at juicy's bleecker street store. can't wait to debut those babies!





{ the glamourai for shrimpton couture necklace (coming soon!!), love21 dress, anemone cami, vintage clutch & bracelets, agate rings, LAMB shoes }

besides gorging on macarons and pink champagne (staples of my diet, really), i got to catch up with many of my favorite NY blogger gals ~ like elizabeth (we now have matching black bags), christine (who scolded me for not yet posting pictures of my apartment ~ soon, i swear!), and karen (who promises to make a scarf-tan-ette out of her under-appreciated hermes scarf stash!). my goodness, it was fun.

I love the shade of your dress and cami sort of lavender-periwinkle complimented by your pale mint polish. :)

The heels are an eye-catcher too!

Lauren said...

I love the color combo of the sweet lilac-blue dress and the mint green nails. So fresh.

Love this outfit, all the elements work so well together..the nail polish, lace details, etc. Very girly but still very you and a bit edgy.

Hey Glam, you inspired me with your gorgeous jewellry! I completely forgot about how fun it can be.. I recently purchases a long, oval turquoise ring and a larimar triangular ring, and it's like a whole fresh outlook on my personality. they are so cool, clean and unique! thanks for the inspiration.

Heartsandhemlines said...

Just found you and am in LOVE. The necklace reminds me of the one in SPLASH, I loves.

Becca [Free Honey] said...

I'm really patting myself on the back for my own good taste - I just bought this same dress last week! I can't wait to wear it, I love the lace detailing at the bottom. I can't believe you didn't show the little buttons up the back, it's probably my favorite part of the dress.

Hello!
J'aime bien la coulour blue pour vous! Et le colier est superbe!!
