[helena]

[adorefaith]

jmo of course....

 

[softgrey]

oh...
and then i could wear the copper bag...
and i don't need a pedicure....

...
i'm such a lazy cow.......
ok...i'll post pics to get opinions

 

[softgrey]

[helena]

[Meg]

WEDGES

 

[softgrey]

i guess i have to show you both, right?...

 

[adorefaith]

okay try the wedges...
WITHOUT tights...
and the black bag...

please....

 

[Meg]

this is so fun! Like our own automatic little doll to dress up!

 

[purechris]

peacock shoes....copper bag.....gold jewelry.....no tights

done! can't wait to see you

.........who's effie?

 

[helena]

I agree with chris......I love the shoes so much....

what are you doing with the hair? big & bouncy?

 

[softgrey]

back with pics...
*sorry adoref.
didn't see your post and i'm already back in my blue sweats......
but i think you might like this...


*glad to be your puppet/doll meg...!!
i really do appreciate the help and advice...

 

[Curious]

^ Oooh la la!! Very nice... better without the hosiery imo

 

[helena]

looks fab with no tights! lovely.....

 

[softgrey]

the colours don't really show up in the pics because i can't use the flash in the mirror...
but imagine that it is MUCH more vibrant like the shots above...

*helena...and adoref.-my hair will be long and down and very shiny...


adoref-i see the look you are going for...
hair up...blk pumps...blk snakeskin clutch....
very elegant and understated...i love it actually...
but maybe almost a little too understated for such an 'over-the-top' event...
that sounds like a really lovely outfit for a nice dinner out...
or even a wedding or something more sedate...

 

[helena]

hair sound graet softgrey...will youuse a shine product?

 

[adorefaith]

thx for all the pics softie...
yes....i guess i am always drawn to that clean, understated look....
at least now you know you have a beautiful outfit for a formal dinner out or a simple special occasion....!


i say the last look is the best....
no tights...the wedges...i am suprised by how much i like them actually...
and you are right...they have a little more 'spunk' for a night out like the one you're going to...
the pumps are probably a bit too safe...

but i'm sorry to say i dont like the copper....
is there nothing else you can take...?..
the black...you know i love....
or even something that draws from a slightly more subtle color from your shoe...?

i dont know what it is....the copper is just so shiny...
and i feel the detail on the bag takes away from the detail on your dress and the lovely shoe....
both of which should be where the eye focuses imo...
its a bit much....the new shoe and the copper....

something w/ a more matte finish for a bag would be perfect i think....

what do YOU think...??

 

[softgrey]

i think it's disco-y...
and the shinier the better...honestly......


maybe a shine product on the hair is a good idea helena...
di you think it would weigh my hair down though?...
i don't want flat hair......

**purechris is my HOT DATE!!!...
...

 

[i_<3_chanel]

soft is there anyway you can take some sneaky 'streetstyle' pics at this party ?
i'd love to see wht other ppl are wearing !

& i much prefer the wedges minus the tights

 

[softgrey]

i also think that it is now official...
helena is a genius!!...

great idea about the shoes miss H...
danke!!...

...

plus you have no idea how comfortable that outfit is...
as soon as i put it on i was like....'oh yeah...this is it...'
*without the tights....btw...


i love all the textures....
the metallic leather...
the suede...the patent leather...the purple velvet...the silk satin...the gold jwlry and studs on the shoes...the rhinestones on the bag...
and it is still tasteful and elegant...sexy without being sl*tty...
...

i need to figure out a coat now...
