04 October, 2007Fat Fashion Thursday - To the Opera!
Fat Fashion Thursday is back for another dose of hot fashion and animal-friendly accessories. Only one look this week, but one is better than none! I’m going to see one of my favorite authors, David Sedaris (holy cow, why don’t you have a website, must get on this) on Sunday, and it’s being held at Chrysler Hall, home of fancy concerts and operas. I asked Cassie if that meant we had to get all gussied up opera-style, and while she said she doubted it very much, I started to wonder what my opera outfit would look like. Well here we go!
The foundation for this look is the JS Boutique Beaded Mesh Dress ($158). This color is such a statement, yet it’s muted enough to look great on a variety of skintones, plus you get to show off your terrific décolletage. A winner. On your feet are gray satin (two trends I back) Ashley Pumps ($36) with a stacked heel that won’t make these babies impossible to walk in. How about some handmade accessories with this look? I hit up Etsy for a Black and White Clutch ($45) with a gorgeous brocade fabric and an unforgettable pair of Lady Madonna earrings ($75). Top that off with a sassy Betsey Johnson Sequined Bangle ($35) and this smart little Jewel Cluster cocktail ring ($10) and you are so ready for a night on the town.

I LOVE THIS WHOLE OUTFIT.
I LOVE THIS ENTIRE OUTFIT.
I love posting comments twice, too.
I'm so jealous, I love David Sedaris. I had no idea he was going to be here.
You'll have to tell me all about it on Monday.
I want one of everything. Sigh. Have fun!
Aw, Amber. You should wear this outfit! I love it - especially the clutch.
Don't ever listen to me again.
LOVE that clutch.
Dood, that outfit is *fierce*
David Sedaris is hilarious... and the whole Sedaris family seems to be pretty talented, do you know Amy Sedaris?
The outfit is G-R-R-E-A-T
It's kinda sad that people don't get dressed up any more. There are so many pretty dresses out there and nowhere to wear them.
Hey Amber- Did you buy this dress? If so, how was the fit? I have a few holiday parties in Dec that it would be great for, but not sure what size to get. Does it run big/small?
