Strike. A. Pose.

How awesome is this 80s Vintage dress?

I love the crazy cups, shape of the dress and the studded detail around the neckline.

I always seem to find myself falling in love with Vintage treasures from the

 80 because they are...wild/crazy/sexy/cool.

Let's do 80s right and go down memory lane with some Madonna lyrics...

Ladies with an attitude
Fella's that were in the mood
Don't just stand there, let's get to it
Strike a pose, there's nothing to it
vogue, vogue, vogue, vogue

More photos from NY when I got to hang out with Lydia while I was in town.
Doesn't a hot pink dress just make you wanna have fun?
It sure makes me want to twirl around, smile, laugh and be goofy in a child like sort of way. 
Hot pink can be either sexy and fun or very cute and young. 
A better reason to wear hot pink for all of those reasons.

Is the Cyndi Lauper song 'girls just wanna have fun' your girly girl anthem when getting ready to go out or what? 

This might be my next song choice for karaoke!

Bell Sleeves have found a way to my heart.  This crushed velvet burgundy bell sleeve Vintage beauty is an incredible piece--and perfect for the Holiday festivities coming up.

LYLIF was so kind to ask me to choose an accessory of my choice to style.  As soon as I saw this necklace the 'Aztec Princess Necklace' I knew the possibilities to style it were endless.  I love how it has so many elements: the turquoise, chain tassels and black beads.  It really feels like a special 'museum' piece to me that was taken from some time in history.  I didn't take off this necklace all weekend and wore it quite differently in a different outfit with all black/leather.
I actually evolved this entire outfit around the necklace, and it really suited this dress in a sort of hippie-wood-nymph-Renaissance way.

Take a gander at LYLIF for some fun finds at amazingly affordable prices.
