Sac-Town

Let's go on a road trip image found on shop sweet things


Happy Friday! This weekend the hubby and I are taking a quick trip up to Sacramento for an engagement party. Not wanting to disappoint the very fashionable bride, I am making sure I am packing everything I need to look my best.

The dress: Vintage find at my favorite thrift stop: Knimble in Cotati, CA. A nod to kimono styling with killer sleeves. Not too dressy, but not slacking off either.

The accessories: My trademark: black and gold bling. I focused on the hands and wrists with lots of rings and bracelets, not wanting a necklace to detract from the beautiful wrap neckline of the dress. Add in a small black bag, some chunky, strappy heels (from Zara), and of course red lipstick (from Sephora) along with a vintage lipstick case mirror.

The arsenal: With the hair and makeup, I want to look effortless with loose waves with the help of my wand. To get those, I start off with BB tonic lotion and styling cream and finish with TreSemme hair spray. My biggest must have is my Sally Hansen leg makeup. I love this stuff! A super pale gal's best friend!
