If you haven't yet read it, click over to my post on the pictures and happenings from the actual concert 'cause HOT. DIGGITY. It was amazing.
Now let's talk about the outfit:
Lots of exciting things going on with this look, but first I have to mention the motivation for it. Right before I was set to start getting dressed yesterday my sister said to me, "Ya excited?!?!" (I was.) "You have to look ghetto, you have to look the part." We had a little chuckle together and she followed up with, "wear your hoops."
So I indeed wore my hoop earrings, and THiS was as "ghetto" as I could pull together. I'm not even sure what that means except that the peasant skirt I originally wanted to wear wouldn't have applied.
So yes, some exciting things with this look:
(1) my first peplum top
(2) it is royal blue - which seems to be 'my color' this summer
(3) my platform blowfish shoes we rocked 'cause I don't give a f*** anymore if I'm the tallest bitch around
(4) hair was au natural (something I haven't done in a while)
and
(5) it was the first thing I put on and (miracle!) felt good in it
I even did a #fashiondiaries with it:
...and something else to note: right after this pic was taken, Tomas texted me. It was the first contact I've had from him since May 9th, his birthday (I haven't heard his voice or seen him since March 1st). We texted back and forth on the commute to Yankee Stadium, and I was just a big ball of emotions. I still am. While I was at the concert, he came to my house, talked briefly to my sister, and picked up his bike and boogie board. Uh-huh.
Today I'm going a little crazy with all the information thrown my way last night, but above, for a few shining moments & a handful of photographs, I felt like I had it all together posing in my peplum.
Happy Saturday!
