“She Wants To Move” (Uncategorized)
Today, I built an outfit around the latest addition to the esty store, Atlantis:
F21 shirt over vintage dress over Emporio Armani skirt, Alice + Olivia for Payless shoes, self-designed necklace
This vintage turquoise dress that I won on Market Publique (it’s like ebay for vintage only. GO THERE!) a few weeks ago sat languishing in my closet until I realized that it (the bottom, at least) would go perfectly with the hints of turquoise in the necklace. WIN.
BUT, it’s a little short…TOO short for work. My saving grace was this shiny silver bodycon pencil skirt with a pleated hem that I scored at a sample sale. EPIC WIN. I can’t remember how much it was, but my abriged memory tells me it was in single digit territory. You know how I do. LOL.
The way the pleats on this skirt swish back and forth while I’m walking reminds me of my favorite N.E.R.D. video. Ol’ girl was shaking something furious in that fringe dress. Trust, whenever I hear this song while I’m out (or in the house, hell…), I do the same thing. Sure, muscles are pulled and multiple cramps ensue, but something about that song makes me forget it all.
I need to go to a party or something.
