VOOTD (Vintage Outfit Of The Day): 80's Holiday Edition!

Let me first start off by giving my disclaimer: I am NOT a MUA. Never have been. I simply LOOOOVE make-up, jewelry, hair, clothes and FASHION. I think everything that I just stated coincides with one another. With that being said, I tried REALLY hard to match my eyeshadow to what I had on for the VOOTD: 80's HOLIDAY EDITION!

The designer of the dress is Lilie Ruben and it's states that it fits a size Small/Medium. Being that the material is poly blend, it has stretch. Remember, stretch is MY friend!!!
I absolutely ADORE the intricate details of the sequin top! It has a sweetheart neckline and a high collar; excellent for an evening of mingling! I think my Pink Heels compliment this dress very well! I purchased them from Wet Seal.


Earrings once again were handmade by me!!! To purchase them, please visit my web-tique: www.girlkhandie.com! My eyeshadow is a combination of several cosmetics, ranging from H.I.P. to Hot Topic. I used L.A. Colors Blush in Natural and Blush. Of course, I'm wearing Pink Stiletto Cosmetics PSC Matte Foundation 108 Powder and PSC Lip Whip in Bubble Gum! 


This outfit definitely cannot be wasted on just any outing! If I'm going out in this, it better consist of candlelight, something decadent and wine!!!!

VOOTD (Vintage Outfit Of The Day)!


Ok guys: as I became older, I realized I regressed back into my childhood of playing in my mother's clothes, makeup and as we all know her "FINE" jewelry! I finally stopped being in denial about "worn with love" apparel and came to terms with the fact that it's like hand-me-downs, only I have the opportunity to make them a little more awesome for me!
So this is the FIRST installment of my VOOTD! 

I decided to incorporate a little "Vintage" with contemporary this go round due to the fact that I LOVE my Jeffery Campbell's and my Sobral/Karl Lagerfeld bracelet! I don't get to wear it much, so when I found THIS dress, I said I have the RIGHT accessories to match it! The dress is 100% cotton, and it feels a little like Jersey knit which makes it feel so comfortable! My earrings are vintage too! Found them on etsy.com...knew they would match something eventually. :c) The dress is definitely quality workmanship(made by a company named CHAR). I guess a size 8 in the 80's actually meant a size 13 because that's what I am! :) Either way, it's an absolute 10 in my book! Can't wait to wear it on a night on the town with the hubby! <3
