SWEET STYLE. 50's BIRTHDAY PARTY {II}
Later on Saturday night we went out by the pool of the Chateau Marmont to snap a few shots and found Pierre, a gorgeous white cat who I believe belongs to the hotel. What a life! It was very Breakfast at Tiffany's. Later I had a little photo shoot with the girls on the couch, and then had my camera commandeered by Mr. Bochco (who took some real beauties. Thanks Jess!). What a fun night! I keep looking over the photos and reliving it all...

SWEET STYLE. 50's BIRTHDAY PARTY {I}
There were so many amazing photos from Lauren's birthday, I had to split them up into two posts. So come back tomorrow for more fun 50's photos!
As for my outfit, I decided to wear pieces I already had in my closet, like my Joan costume from two Halloween's ago. Yes it's a little more early 60's, but I thought I would make it work. I threw on some jewelry I already owned with a few added F21 pieces, my favorite, classic peep-toe pumps, with the perfect 2.5 inch heel {very 50's!} and a vintage coat I've had since high school. Add some red lips, Audrey hair and my specialty- winged liner {check my how-to here} and I had quite a vintage look going...
FASHION OF THE 1950's
It was my friend Lauren of The Sphinx & The Milky Way's birthday this past Saturday night. She had the most amazing 1950's themed cocktail party. Everyone looked so great, I can't wait to share photos!
Don't you love 50's fashion? The ladies were all so glamorous and stylish. I love the full skirts, the gloves and hats, the red lips and nails and high-waisted everything...
