Well, it wasn’t actually a party, it was dinner, but it was my dinner and my
dress was shiny:
I wore this outfit for Day 2 of my Birthday Extravaganza. We were going to dinner at The Chart House,
which is a lovely restaurant in the hills above Portland, and I figured why not
wear sequins. So I did:
Although I love my black, sequined dress (vintage via
Goodwill), I wanted to inject a little color into my outfit as well, so I added
blue tights (Hue via Marshalls) and a burgundy eelskin clutch (vintage via
Goodwill). I also added a few bracelets,
the same Juicy Couture necklace (via Nordstrom) I wore the night before (I
know, I know, worst blogger ever) and black Mary Jane pumps (Franco Sarto Leticia
via Nordstrom).

Dinner was fabulous.
The view was amazing and so were the food and the service. Definitely an excellent Day 2.
Happy Thursday, All!

love love this vintage dress! Sequin dresses are always a good thing to have in your closet. I have this uber sparkly sexy gold dress and of course the first time I wore it was with a huge old lady xmas holiday sweater for an ugly sweater party! I think my dress was embarrassed to be taken out that night but you do the sequin justice hot lady! Take pictures of dinner!

I'm glad you had such an excellent birthday! Love that sequin dress.
ReplyDeleteYou look so beautiful! I love the pops of color you added to this dressy look. I can't believe you found this dress at Goodwill, it's stunning. I've been looking for something similar for New Years!
ReplyDeleteWow you look so cute in this. I love the blue tights.
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks so pretty Gracey! I love that you put blue tights with this dress. I probably would have done something neutral and then wish I'd added a dash of color. I love blue at Christmas time especially!
ReplyDeleteGracey, you shine in every photo you share with your adoring followers. I love navy with black, too.
ReplyDeleteBest dress ever. Shiny, black, easy to dress up! (Also I'm nosy and saw your comment on Patti's post - you tots need a MMD belt. I'm making new ones at the beginning of 2013 so hit me up!)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THIS OUTFIT!!! Ahh, the shiny dress is so awesome! And I love that you added a pop of color with the tights, and those shoes are so cute! I've been looking for a nice pair of Mary Janes for a while, I'll have to check those out!

ReplyDeleteYour gorgeous smile shines brighter than the stunning sequined dress!!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to know you're celebrating in style!! Have a wonderful sparkly weekend; it definitely suits you. :-)
ReplyDeletelove the blue tights...it's just enough color to pop, but not overpower the pretty sequined dress!
ReplyDeletewe have a chart house here...but it's not a lovely restaurant on the hills tho! more like an old pub on the harbor!
[oomph.]
What a beautiful look. Gacey, you look *marvellous* Happy Birthday 2!
ReplyDeleteGracey, you sparkle so bright! At first I mistook you for a very tall Christmas ornament.
ReplyDeleteOoh, pretty dress! For both of your birthday dinners, you went to restaurants that I've been dying to try for years! So jealous :) Good to know The Chart House was amazing - I think I'm going to convince Josh to take me there on New Year's Eve!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!! You look gorgeous :)
