ALL SHE WANTS TO DO IS DANCE

1-22-10 1

I'm on my way out with a very good friend who is turning 30 today.  The birthday girl has decided on a night of dancing, which I'm super stoked about because I.  Love. To. Dance.  And I can never find anyone to go with me anymore.  In this little college town, we are sure to be the oldest ladies on the dance floor.  (Just a little perspective - we're going to an establishment that was know as "Players" until just a couple years ago.)  Hehehe...

Drinks and dancing with the girls is the PERFECT occasion for this cute little number.  Shop Mamie was nice enough to send this Socialite Dress for me to style up.  It's so soft and drapey and I love the opportunity to show a little shoulder now and again.

At first, I was going to belt it over tights with some flats very much like Jessica did here, but with the temperatures dropping, I decided to throw a pair of baggy harems over the dress.  And I LOVE the result.  It's funny how a baggy look, cinched in at the waist can make me feel just as sexy, if not more so, than something body hugging.

I'm super "pumped" (haha) for the chance to work with the girls from Shop Mamie.  Like me, they're PSU grads, too!  I love knowing the roots of a business and these stylish ladies have surely built their dream.  And just like BCC, they're all about great looks on a budget.  Woot!  Woot!

  3. PLAYERS. I haven't thought of that place in a million years. The last time I was there they were playing Bloodhound Gang's "The Bad Touch." HAHA!

    You look saucy! That first shot has some serious sass. You'll teach those little girls a thing or two. And PS: I'm 31 and will always be the chick in the middle of the floor.

  16. Dancing is the best! Especially for a 30th birthday!

    I have the same problem where I live. College town means that the bars and clubs are full of young kids. It's awesome that you got out there and rocked it!

  18. If I hadn't read that you put pants over the dress, I would have sworn it was a jumper that just fit you perfectly. I love this outfit and it's perfect for dancing because the last thing you want is uncomfy dance clothes.

  31. Haha, every town has their 'Players'... as long as you didn't run into too many people from your highschool, which is always awkward.
    I love the one shoulder look on you!
