Feel the beat from the Tambourine



Old Hollywood glam-black and gold-outfit meets 70's glam


What I'm Wearing
* Alice and Olivia black satin high waist pants
* DIY lace halter bustier top. love. and super easy.
* Vintage gold bag, belt, & earrings.
* Vintage sunglasses.
* Rosena Sammi bracelet
* Casadei leopard print stilettos

* Red Lips... Mac "Such Flare!" | Vintage Decal Nails

* Title: lyrics from ABBA : Dancing Queen ~ connection: their head to toe blue satin suits in the video I linked to & my satin pants and pseudo 70's glam look.

I was dying to wear this outfit during the holiday season... actually, I've been dying to wear it since I made the lace halter bustier, but haven't had a chance to. So I threw it on the other day for a fun photo shoot and realized the pants were much longer than I remembered them. I think I was a few lbs heavier when I first got them and tried them on so they stayed up around my actual waist better and weren't as long. I obviously need to alter them before I wear them for real... or just find higher shoes.


* note: My husband hates these pants. hates them. hates all high waisted pants. thinks they're the worst thing a woman can wear. On top of it, I actually thought my husband would think this outfit was sexy. I was so wrong. ;)

and this is where that argument that women dress more for women (rather than for men) is so clearly illustrated. LOVING this. The 70s vibe is killing me softly. Also digging your nails. that is SO my next mani.

Oh you look HOT :-) It's amazing though how men can only see "but it's high waisted" and that's the end of all sexiness in their eyes. Sheesh ^^ You are not alone, sister!

I've always secretly loved high-waisted pants......very "classy", IMO. You look fan-tastic, and I love, love that lipcolor! I've been looking and looking for just the "right" shade of red lipstick, and now I've found it! Thank you! You've saved me a lot more time. Hope the sun is shining just for you!

Love this! The halter, pants and belt are amazing (and sexy). I'm also shocked that this one was deemed a no by the husband.
