From girly to edgy!

I’ve worn this dress once before in another post, but it was styled in a totally different way. Tonight I was in a more dark and edgy mood so I decided to put together a total black outfit, with dark lips. I’m wearing the shoes that don’t fit me (remember when I told you they turned out to be a size smaller?), for which I didn’t get a refund after all so I’m not buying from that retailer ever again! At least I can wear them for my blog every once in a while so it’s not a total loss.
Also, I’m wearing a pair of lace leggings that I bought a couple of years ago to wear when I go tango dancing. The dress code in Milongas (events where you dance and listen to Tango Argentino) involves dresses or skirts with leggings and tango shoes and the styling is very vampish and retro. I love it!

The following week is going to be extremely busy for me and I apologize in advance if it will take me a while to answer to your comments, but please know that I appreciate every single one!

Staying in!

Busy day today and although I have a party invitation for tonight I don’t think I’m going to make it. I think I’m turning into a couch potato lately (or just plain potato, haha)!
Last night I saw a magnificent movie, Changeling with Angelina Jolie. You know I love the 20’s, so I admired her style and beauty, as well as the photography and costumes. I’ve been obsessed with that era lately, having also watched the “Boardwalk Empire” which was a TV series for HBO, directed by the great Martin Scorsese. I’d give anything to do the make up for a similar movie or TV show!

Have you seen any good movies lately? And if you know of any movies/tv shows that deal with past decades, I’d love to hear about them...
