Drama Queen

To say that I am a drama queen is a bit over the top. My disposition is not all that dramatic, but my flair and fearlessness when it comes to making a fashion statement certainly is. If I told you that I am quite shy, you would probably not believe me. Yet, in a room full of strangers, I am often quite uncomfortable and very self-conscious. However, put me on a stage, in a room full of strangers, and the discomfort disappears, for on stage I am truly at home. This is likely why I find myself “going for it” when it comes to fashion, making bold choices and never doubting myself.
When I attended the Fierce Con weekend a few weeks ago, I knew that I would be surrounded by women my age, mostly fashion bloggers, with similar values and goals, but also diverse tastes in fashion. This is the outfit that I wore to the opening night celebration. Since I was performing a song that evening, I wanted to “dress the part.” I chose this very rock and roll-top by Yigal Azrouel, a designer that I have worn in the past. It is quite a low cut, and I will admit that I had second thoughts, but since it didn’t reveal anything inappropriate, I went for it.
I cannot say enough good things about these leather pants by Theory. In addition to being super comfy and flattering, the color is a definite knock out. Burgundy is a color towards which I tend to gravitate at this time of year, both in my fashion and makeup choices.
The gold heels seemed a better choice than basic and often boring black, and they gleam next to the burgundy. As we approach the holidays, this outfit will be on repeat.

  • Perfection! You are so flipping clever, from the name on your blog, to your genius color combo, and right down to your shoe game. Hey, thank you for the different angle showing your platinum heels. I must have just missed your performance at FierceCon, so I am elated that we get to see you perform at the Playhouse. ❤️ Julie
