also...
david bowie and iman will be there...
and lenny kravitz and diddy...

so it's kind of rock n roll meets disco meets glam...
if that makes sense...

I was thinking you could go for the glam rock look as an alternative to the disco thing. But after seeing you in the black top and slinky jersey skirt, I say D I S C O!
The vintage red shoes are perfect! Very authentic!

...ha!!...
very amusing...
i might have actually done that in my younger days dear...

i've done it all at this point...

softgrey · 17-10-2005

here are some options with the hl tux pants....
thoughts?!?...

Kimkhuu · 17-10-2005

Soft, I think the first top in black is definitely my fave especially with the black pants.....

And if you go with the skirt, I think it would look even better without tights and with the pumps in the picture with the skirt.... What a lovely outfit...

So I am coming too right.... ......!?

softgrey · 17-10-2005

thx kim...
sure...i'll put you on the list...
what are you going to wear??....

so here is another option...
silk satin gathered dress...

*necklace or no necklace?...

thanks to everyone for helping with this...

softgrey · 17-10-2005

which shoes...
sandals or pumps?...

...

softgrey · 17-10-2005

which bag...
silver or blk?...

thanks...

adorefaith · 17-10-2005

hey softie......this is a little bit exciting....

....

the white prada top is a little bit casual, i think......
i like the black top & skirt but i wonder what it would look like without the pantyhose?....

this last look is by far the best imo.....the dress...
flattering and sultry...... i dont know about the gold necklace....that picture is dark and i dont know if perhaps its too close to the neckline...?....

thx for including us in this....!

softgrey · 17-10-2005

thanks adoref...

very good input...glad you like being included...

**i just dug these out of my closet...
i think they might be perfect with the dress...

...
they are VERY ysl...and i

the colour...

plus i think i could actually dance in these....!!
hmmm...would fishnets be too much??...

fashionista-ta · 17-10-2005

Well, let's see 'em

Agree the shoes are perfect ... love the little platform ... of this moment and that one ...

softgrey · 17-10-2005

...
i need to get a pedicure before you will see my feet in them...

...

but what colour polish is best?...red will clash...
maybe a sheer pink?...

which outfit do you like ta-ta??...

Spike413 · 17-10-2005

Ahhh, so much fun!!!

Love that last black dress you posted, it's slinky, it's sexy, it's perfect!

I'd personally go with the silver bag, it gives it that bit of glitz that says disco, and definitly do the sandals, I'm having a bit of a moment with stockings/sandals (and, it's very 70's.

)

As for toenails, I would've said red, but that would look terrible with that shade of pink and ruin the whole look. Sheer pink sounds good though.

What are you planning jewelry/hair and makeup wise?

ultramarine · 17-10-2005

to me sexy is defenitively a dress ... I'd look for pics of Princess Caroline of Manaco pre-first marriage with all those french disco pictures ... and of course ... depending on the haircut .. a Farrah hair do ...

softgrey · 17-10-2005

yay spike!!...

...
so happy to get your input...since this is right up your alley...

...

so you like the dress?...
you don't think the fuschia sandals is too much with the silver bag?...
i was leaning towards the black bag with them...

as far as jwlry...
i agree with adoref...that necklace is over the top-too much...
so i will just wear my elsa peretti gold knot nklc that i have in the first pic of the dress...
very simple and bare-because myhair will be down...
**and long hair is an accessory unto itself...imo...

and my elsa peretti gold medallion bracelet...
probably a couple of rings...
one gold band (my mom's wedding band)...and a cocktail ring maybe...

waddaya think?...

i haven't even thought about make up...
as i usually don't wear any...
i just know i will wear lots of gloss...
