Bettie at the Movies

I'm working today, but yesterday, I took a break from work and enjoyed a movie night with the honey. 

We went to see World War Z, which was delightfully better than I was expecting (to be fair, I wasn't expecting much except for some Brad Pitt eye-candy).

I wanted a comfortable and casual look, but I also wanted to have some fun with my outfit.

I wore a Bettie Paige t-shirt with a bandage mini-skirt I recently purchased from The Limited.  I folded the waistband over for a slightly more mini mini.  I finished the look with a lightweight jacket for the always freezing theater.

Jacket:  Torrid (Available here)
Purse:  Vintage

This outfit made me feel sassy, which is always a marker of a great look in my book!

What would/do you wear for a movie date?

Tuxedo Redux

This week, I will be featuring outfits perfect for the evening.  

Whether it's a night out with the girls or a date with that special someone, I love going-out fashion!

Blouse:  LOFT (old)
Jacket:  The Limited (Available here)

Pants:  The Limited (Similar here)
Shoes:  Target (Available here)

I picked this outfit to wear to an art exhibit with the man.  I love how the watercolor print blouse has a romantic, painterly vibe.

Purse:  Jason Wu for Target
Ring:  LOFT

Hourglass Necklace:  Claire's (Available here)
Earrings: The Limited

I kept the look simple with black skinny tuxedo pants and a tuxedo-inspired jacket for a sexy, feminine take on the tuxedo.   

To my great happiness, the tuxedo trend for women has continued for 2013 as many designers showed tuxedo-inspired looks on their spring runways.

The green and black colorblock heels and lace clutch finish the look.

What would you wear to an art show?
