Viejas Night OUT!

Corina- I must confess that I am a big fan of red carpet events during "awards season". I always mark my calendar to make sure I do not miss watching them on television. To me it is always fun to hear not only what and who the attendees are wearing, but how they or their stylist picked the outfits. It is not that different as anyone trying to decide what to wear for a special night out. I do not attend red carpet events, but for special occasions I gravitate to black velvet, sparkles and definitely pearls.

Ana- It is a good thing I do not get invited often to a"red carpet" event. I think they are a little stressful. When I do, I start going through my closet and picking out things I have not wore in years to try them on. More often than not this leads to: "oh, no! I love this top. Why is this not fitting right anymore" or "I knew it, my hips are getting wider" (as I tried to push up those adorable pairs of glittery palazzo pants). I then put everything back in the closet; because-of course-they will fit another day. This is just a "today" thing. I must be bloated for sure!. Then, I stress-shop (more on that in a future blog) and end up looking less than put together and never wearing again what I bought. Sounds familiar?

Now; here is what else happened. A few Saturdays ago I had a gala (stressful). I though, I will go out and look for something on Friday (after work to minimize stress shopping).

If I do not find anything, I always have ; well what you see in the picture above.

Viejas, I found a dress for under $20 that had a 'final sale-no returns, so "I better like it", I thought.

I wore it over my old glittery palazzo pants.
