Hey! Where'd you get that dress?

So, my girlfriend Shari calls me literally a week before and says; "we're christening our baby". Oh ok! That's great! We'll be there. After all, he is our god-son. When is it? "February 2nd" she says. Great fine, we're there. 

But wait, February 2nd? Something about that date sounds really familiar. Oh right. It's Super Bowl weekend. Ohhhh it's Super Bowl weekend aaaaand the Super Bowl is in New York this year. Riiiight, and you live in New YORK. Awesome, we'll be there.

Traffic, Traffic, Traffic + 18 month old baby in the back seat.

But the great news is, She and I hadn't hung out in some time so we'd be able to hit the city, get dolled up and really just let loose. So I started scowling my closet for the perfect NYC dress. It had to have spunk, of course be form fitting (I mean duhhh) and more importantly sparkle. I love to sparkle. My friends call me the sequin queen. I literally will wear sequin any and everywhere. Like, when I die, I need to have some sort of sheer and/or sparkle laying up in that casket. 

Me at my funeral!

After a few minutes looking in both of my closets. Yes I have two. Yes, I know exactly where everything is. Yes, I will cut you if you take something.

But, after a few minutes I find it. I found the perfect dress to really stand out in the city that never sleeps. 

The "Samia' Crystal Embellished Bandage Dress" 

This dress retails $210

I paired it with some diamond studs and gold pumps and that's all the accessories that I needed. Additionally, I wanted very subtle eye make-up but needed my lip to really pop. I think it would be expected to do a nude lip with this dress, because of all the sequin. So, I decided to do the opposite and go with a bright pink lip! 

The final look!

So Jaded,
