A Masquerade!

First off: Wore a romper today - so comfy! It was totally cute and really fun.

But what I'm really excited about is this Saturday. I'm going to a masquerade Quinceanera (for those of you who don't know, it's a big 15th birthday bash, like a sweet 16)! It's going to be loads of fun. There will be dinner and dancing... and, of course, masks!

Funny, I was just telling my mother the other day how I wanted to go to a quince.

So my mask arrived in the mail today (we ordered it online), see it above. I'm wearing it with a cream/gold brocade shift dress by Elie Tahari, my gold Miu Miu flats (which, unfortunately, have taken a bit of a beating from my scrambling all over the place in them), and a gold Juicy Couture clutch.

As you can see, my color scheme is cream and gold.

Basically, that's it. I actually really need to buy some self-tanner (golfing has left my legs tan, feet white, and thighs somewhere in between)... any suggestions? I've never used it before, but of course I've heard terrifying stories about streaking and orange coloring and all that, so I really want to do it right.

An Impromtu Fashion Show

So last night I went to a fashion show with my parents. It was no big, we didn't have anything to do that evening so we decided we'd check it out. It was just a little promotion deal, with models wearing clothes from the stores displayed (Neiman Marcus, Louis Vuitton, St. Thomas, Intermix, Calypso). It was an RSVP event, but we've got connections (*wink*).

I wanted to take some pictures for you guys, but spaced and left my camera at home. Sorry :(

Anyway, it was cute, held outside with appetizers and things like that. The clothes were okay... lots of resort-type dresses from Calypso, leather fringe-covered vests from Intermix, and Chanel bags from Neiman's. There was some food, and live music afterwards. But while we were down there, in the street (that had been closed off) between two blocks of stores like Juicy Couture, Ralph Lauren, Intermix, and Diesel, I noticed that between the window displays and the clothes worn on the runway, there was a lot of white.

St. Thomas's evening dresses were all white, RL's window displays (all Black, Blue, and Purple Label) were all white, and most of the Calypso dresses were white. Maybe this is old news for you guys, but it was the first I'd seen of it. I've always associated white with winter or maybe summer, never spring. But whatever. White's cool, sure.

P.S.
I guess spontaneity is the thing this week!
