Dancing Dress

Dress by Xinya, worn with Juicy Couture clutch and Kate Spade heels

Got this dress a while ago from Neiman Marcus Last Call, and wore it to a few dances... it's really fun, though my mother did comment that it looks like an Olympic figure skating dress.

To which I responded, "What's wrong with that?"

A Sketchy Weekend

This Sunday I went to an event, Sketch, which was a little fashion seminar for teen girls, with a friend. Fashion designers, boutique owners, and fashion journalists talked to us about their careers and the industry. It was an RSVP event, but I actually had an invite this time. It was fun, held at a cute boutique called Bows + Arrows, with some indie clothes and designers I've never really heard of (pictures above).

Plus, there was free cupcakes and cookies afterwards, and we had a drink while we chatted with the designers and journalists. It was really fun, and educational! They also talked about trends that would be in this season, and they said it would be boyfriend jeans and rompers (how on was I?).

The masquerade party was awesome on Saturday, in case you were wondering. My outfit is pictured above for you! (Sorry that my head's cut off, but see the previous post for the mask.) It went from 5 to about 10:30, and we ate dinner, danced, and socialized. Lots of fun!

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.
