Okay well maybe I didn't wake up like this, but I can dream, can't I? Normally, I would not go this jazzy to concert, but it was Vegas at Christmas time and the fact it look liked one of Beyonce's stage costumes. I just couldn't resist. Anytime I can walk around in head to toe sequins and it's totally appropriate, I am going for it!! I totally felt fabulous in this jumpsuit. It's like the perfect Christmas/Holiday look.
(This was actually a re-shoot of my Vegas look. Because I didn't want to lug my camera to the concert, I didn't get any photos besides the one on my Instagram).
Style Notes: This is one of those pieces that you hold your breathe on. It looks stunning on the model, but the combination of being a jumpsuit and the look of structure just looks like a difficult fit. It actually was pretty right on with the fit, especially for me having not done any alterations. The jumpsuit has some give, but not a whole lot. I ordered this during the MonifC Black Friday sale. In regards to fit, I could have used 2 inches vertically. Being that I am extremely hip/butt centric, it took some of the length out of the jumpsuit making it difficult to sit. Apparently it wasn't that hard though, because I sure wore it. Finally, I must address the "sequin scratchy." Being that it is the holiday season, sequins garments are a-plenty and they can scratch your skin while wearing. I actually researched the problem and I saw that sites recommended the liquid bandage to protect your skin from scratches. You would just apply this product to the areas likely to get scratched by the sequins.
Travel Notes: I had never heard of the Vdara before this weekend. It is right next to the Aria. It really was a lovely hotel. I enjoyed. I had the executive corner suite. The panoramic views of the apartment were breath-taking. The view was even included in the bathroom. I literally left the shades up the whole time. I hope no one was looking through any binoculars, because they sure got an eyeful. LOL. The room had a very chic condo feel. I would definitely stay there again.
I know you see the baby hair - Bwawawawah!!! I promise I didn't do that on purpose.

Now for a parting message. 2014 is going to be all about self confidence. (Thanks to Marie from The Curvy Fashionista who this to me.) I personally think that ever woman should do this in the mirror EVERY morning!!! Try it, I bet you'll feel fabulous every morning.

I feel like your P.S. message for 2014 should be "Go big or go home!"
ReplyDeleteI was assuming you had on a peplum top and leggings. It looks lovely and I love sequins. I always feel like if my skirt or top is sequins, then the other thing needs to be something else. Do you have any looks where you mix sequin separates?
Nope.
DeleteYou look great! I love the belt.
ReplyDeletePretty lady!!! Why didn't you look back at it lol ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat for? I know it's back there LOLOL
DeleteLOVE all of it, but your makeup is especially stunning!

ReplyDeleteYou ROCK that jumpsuit!
ReplyDeleteIt has such a nice shine to it. I thought it would be way louder, but it looks perfect!
I am on the verge of this purchase but I have 2 questions if you be so kind to answer.1) the stretch lining is it truly stretchy? My hips are 63in.2) the inner thigh area how sturdy is it? I dont want to leave a trail of sequins behind from friction! Thanks in advance! DID I MENTION I LOVE YA!
ReplyDeleteHey I have been looking for this. It's not possible you would sell this jumpsuit?
