Leather & Lace

May 6, 2015May 6, 2015by Glasses Girl2 Comments

OK. They’re suede but Suede and Lace didn’t have as nice a ring to it. Close enough! We ventured into New York City for our anniversary on Saturday night. I was hoping to be able to take more pictures when we got there but traffic didn’t allow us to do that. By the time we got into the City we were just in time for our reservation and it was dark. Oh well. I wanted something pretty but not fussy. Have you noticed I’m not much of a dress girl? I got this amazing Free People lace tunic and wore it over my Rag & Bone suede pants. I love how the sleeves gently cascade over my hands. A plus to having short arms? How could I pass up an opportunity to wear the Louboutin? They go with everything!

Tunic – Free People (Bloomingdale’s, White, Black Here)
Suede Pants – Rag & Bone (The Runway/TJ Maxx, Not Available)
Pumps – Christian Louboutin (Barneys, Available Here)
Sunglasses – Prada (On Sale Here)

Cheers!

Holiday Time

December 12, 2014December 13, 2014by Glasses Girl2 Comments

Office holiday parties require a certain amount of etiquette and panache. I actually bought this dress for another event and ended up wearing it to my husband’s holiday party as well. I love it when you get more than one use out of a dress. They cost a lot of money to just hang in a closet forever. Everyone agreed that this dress is just “so me”. Flowy. Of course. I searched and tried on, rinse and repeat. This gem was hunted down at BCBG and much to my surprise when I arrived at the register it was half off. Go me! It is an LBD but in this case the “B” stands for blue. It’s this fabulous steel shade and looks great paired with black tights and shoes and silver jewellery. It could also totally be worn in multiple seasons. In the summer skip the tights and pair with sky high, strappy sandals. Voila.

Dress – BCBGMAXAZRIA (Steal it here!)
Tights – Donna Karan Blackened Shimmer (Bloomingdale’s, Available Here)
Patent Pumps – Christian Louboutin (Barneys)
Bracelet – Swatch
Ring – Forever 21 (Love this one)
Necklace – Walter Bauman

Cheers!

So Fancy

September 9, 2014September 8, 2014by Glasses Girl8 Comments

A family event this past Saturday evening called for some fancy attire. It’s fun to play dress up from time to time. I’ve had this little number for quite a while, but I think this is only the second time I have worn it. That’s the sad part about most fancy dresses. They don’t get to leave the cupboard and play very often and they’re usually not cheap. A friend of mine had this dress in a gold colour and I loved it so much I bought it in silver. So I’m not a complete copy cat! Of course the Louboutin pumps were a no brainer. I love those things! The one area where I always find myself borrowing is in the evening bag department. I never have the right one! Good thing my mum does! Anyway, we danced the night away and had a blast!

Dress – Halston Heritage (Love this option)
Shoes – Christian Louboutin (Barneys)
Bag – Coach (Can’t find a similar one!)
Watch – Michele Watches (Similar)

Cheers!
