Art to Outfit | Ladies' Birthday Lunch
October 10, 2012
For same strange, or maybe not so strange as I'm sure its due to affinity, reason a lot of my friends are Scorpios (November birthdays). So the second half of October and first part of November is usually a busy time for me with celebratory birthday lunches, dinners or outings. For these instances I love dressing up to give importance to the occasion. I mean half the fun is planning the outfit, isn't it? I based the outfit on this beautiful Timothy McDowell painting. I like the kind of translucent colors it has with the darker pops of red and burgundy. It has a dreamy quality. And this dress?? Please! Cute and festive, what more could you ask for in a party dress? Well, there is one more thing it offers- the price is amazing as well. How perfect would also be for the holidays? I won't gush over the shoes, necklace and clutch, because I know you know I just love these.
I'm so happy I get to celebrate with my friends in the upcoming weeks. Do you have any fun birthday plans coming up?

ReplyDeleteLove the painting and that necklace is heaven!
ReplyDeleteYou are such a fashionista lady! You should know that I tried to order that black dress you featured recently and was so bummed to learn it was sold out. arrgh. anywho, love the dress but it will never fit this big booty over here. I'll therefore take the shoes and bag. very fab. your friends have good company: my son's birthday is in November, as is Debbie's.
