Last night Lo and I headed to Melrose Place for an evening of fashion and music. The soiree was curated by Vince and Nylon Magazine, whilst Reyka & Dirty Blonde cocktails provided libations on the house.
I spent the night mingling, people watching [through the lens of my camera] and making new friends. Here are some of my fashionable highlights of the night:
Free mags that were strategically placed on the mannequins heads
Catching up with Lo! It's been a minute; she's been super busy as of late
Gawking over her gorgeous mane! She was super sweet and adorable!
Eying her Alexander Wang bag. I will settle for a DIY for now.
I loved her over-the-knee socks. Perfect accessory for a fall collegiate look.
I loved her entire outfit! Very casual yet chic. Still kicking myself for forgetting to ask about her necklace!
Even her shoes were ultra femme! They were sky-high double-stacked platforms!
I love Victorian-style billowy slip dreses! Her look was polished from her 3/4 length cardi to her lavender nails!
I loved the juxtaposition between the asymmetrical feminine top and the hard leather bomber. The baubles around her neck was a nice touch as well!
A nice classic black purse that will last for years is on my wish-list. Although I may not start off with a Chanel bag [for obvious reasons, seen the price tag on those lately?].
These two were super sweet and stylish
One feather earring is always a nice touch!
Orchids, my favorite. If you're ever in the L.A area, stop by Vince on Melrose Place; they amazing pieces for men and women!
Garments:
Dress: Marciano Flamenco Style Wrap
Jeans: Marc Jacob Skinnies
Jacket: Zara
Lipstick: Intriguing - Stila

ReplyDeleteI enjoy reading Nylon magazine and have been a faithful subscriber. The party scene looks relaxed and cozy. You must have had a lot of fun. It is great to check out people's styles because many will always have something signature about them. Feather earrings I am always in love with these days. Cannot live without them.
ReplyDeleteAnd you look very stylish with your outfit and so lovely hair. :) Your eyes may have been through the lens but I bet all eyes were on you.
Always beautiful and rocker chic, I cant wait for your other ootd. Thanks darlin
