If I Close My Eyes Forever Will it All Remain Unchanged? ...Will It All Remain the Same?


Blue Jersey Maxi dress +  Cognac corduroy blazer


What I'm Wearing
* Delong Ocean Blue maxi dress by Supertrash ...courtesy of Supertrash
* Vintage cognac corduroy blazer ...it's been so chilly and June gloomy lately :( {I need a tan already!} ... last seen here with shoes in the winter
* Vintage belt
* Rachel Roy drop earrings, vintage cross pendant necklace with stones, vintage & new bangles {my dailies} and a few gold stacking rings
* Vintage or cheapie sunglasses? I found these while cleaning out my closet ...honestly can't remember where they are from
* Sam Edelman lace up peep toe ankle boots ...these are from forever ago. Can't find them anywhere online at the moment. ...see them better here with ruffle socks

* Title: lyrics from Ozzy Osbourne & Lita Ford "Close My Eyes Forever" ...so amazing. come on. I was 13 when this song came out ...and in the 8th grade. I would wait and wait and wait for the video to play on MTV just to record it to my "Maeg's Videos" tape.


I love this dress ...I love the way it the material feels and the way it hangs ...however, i could not find a pair of underwear that weren't visible! It's not transparent in the least, it's just so clingy that any lines showed, and I wasn't about to go without. Also, it's not the type of dress you wear a slip or even Spanx under either. Not that I actually have any Spanx to speak of but I should probably get on that because I hear they work miracles!

...and then later, while in Sephora, I leaned over to grab a lip liner and simultaneously created two dots of concealer on my leg. Grrrrrrrr ....which hopefully won't stain forever because I actually really love this dress.

I think this is the loveliest outfit I've ever seen you in (and everything you wear is lovely). The color combination is quite striking - love the earthiness of the blazer and belt against the sky blue airiness of that dress. It reminds me of a desert painting. Anyway, you're just about the last person on this planet to need to wear Spanx. You are gorgeous!

I love me some spanx. I have so many different styles and pieces to wear under tight dresses! It's really ugly and grandmaish but works miracles. :-)

I love the colour of that dress - so perfect! Did you try seamless underwear (made from that really light material) as well? I always have problems with super clingy clothing and VPL and occasionally the seamless underwear will do the trick.

Laura said...

You do NOT need a tan! Embrace the pale; your skintone is absolutely lovely.

Hanna said...

I was thinking what kinda undies is she wearing???... oh, maybe no undies???... but then I read what you wrote after looking at the pics...not trying to be a pervert but what kinda bra do you wear???

Lia said...

Stunning look Maeg! I love the color on you, and of course you've styled it to perfection :)

SheDan said...

Love the dress! It has a beautiful drape.

I wear the Victoria's Secret Bare Ultimate Wide-Side Thong when I need a completely seamless look. I have worn it successfully under skin tight spandex. ;-) Try it out!

Holly said...

bombshell alert!!
you remind me of that blonde actress from winters bone in the red dress at the oscars!

Vanessa, Take only Memories said...

Wow! This dress is absolutely gorgeous! You look beyond amazing :)

jenn~the stylish housewife said...

It's such a great color too. Beautiful and bright.

modanista junkie said...

OMG this color is perfect and so gorgeous on you!!! Love the two colors together!!

I've heard the same about spanx.
Oh no! I'm sure it wont stain. You should carry the tide to-go pen because you just never know when you have an oopsie. :)

It has been overcast and grey here, too.........global COOLING?? The sun came out at 4pm yesterday. (So, I sat in front of my kitchen window for some Vit. D!!).... Well, wishing you a sunny week, Sunshine! p.s. Fabulous dress, fabulous you!!

Lorena said...

This is a beautiful dress and beautiful color on you .
Just last week I gave this color combo a try and I wasn't too sure, but you totally nailed it.

Sing said...

beautiful color, you can do a million things with it.

hotpants™ said...

Great dress! Love you in blue!

Stunning as usual! XOXO, www.NatalyasCloset.com

daer0n said...

Goodness...why would you even need spanx? that is definitely not for you...you always look great. I think you might want to start wearing spanx when you are like, 100 years old or something. You always look great :)

Kayla said...

That dress is amazing on you! Not only is the color so striking but the fabric looks so comfortable. You look so chic!

Alex said...

the color of this dress is utterly amazing.

Four Flights said...

Wowza sexy lady, you look fab in that color!

drollgirl said...

um, only YOU would quote lita ford! bahahhaha!!! you are killing me with these lyrics and your love of this song.

AND, while on the topic of lita, i just watched the runaways. VERY INTERESTING that lita had such a bit part in the movie and that there was ZERO zero FOLLOW UP about her career. i am reading a lot into that (thinking joan jett probably can't stand her -- hmmm. who knows).

anywhoodle, you look fab! love these colors. and i could never wear that dress, spanx or no spanx! too clingy for this gal! lol

p.s. i am hating a certain someone today. kill kill kill.

Wasnt_Mary said...

WOW-WOW-WOW!

jennine said...

ah those colors! so perfect! i've been meaning to tackle the maxi dress and to no avail... this though is wonderful on you!

jemappelleshen said...

Britt+Whit said...

Love what you did with the blue maxi dress. I have a similar one and have been trying to figure out how to add pieces so I can wear it when it's a bit colder out. Thanks for the inspiration!

XOXO,
