F*ckin' Perfect

Raise your glass!  Today, I bring you a little Friday the 13th love with some great music!  :-)

My fiance and I are huge fans of Pink, so when we found out last spring that she added St. Louis to her concert tour, we were ecstatic.  We immediately bought the best tickets we could get (VIP pit) and then eagerly waited for almost eight months for the show.

Blouse: New York & Company (Available here)
Jacket:  Target (Available here)
 
Last month, Pink finally came to St. Louis, and she did not disappoint.  The show was amazing with a line-up of her current songs and old favorites.  Pink's acrobatic routines never cease to amaze me - especially because she sings while performing them.
Another thing I love about Pink is how she encourages her audience to love their bodies and to embrace being themselves. During the show, she encouraged bad dancers in the audience to do their finest bad dancing, and she sang self-esteem anthem, "Fucking Perfect" - one of my favorite Pink songs.
Are you fans of Pink?

Because We Can - Bon Jovi :-D

Last night, the man and I went to a Bon Jovi concert.
Tie-dye jeans:  Torrid (Available here)
Jacket:  The Limited (Available in ivory here)
I wanted a casual look with a bit of an 1980s vibe.  The neon yellow stilettos and neon pink shirt gave a nod to all the fluorescent colors of the 80s without looking like a costume.
Blouse:  The Limited (old)
Shoes:  Target (Available here)
Earrings:  Prabal Gurung for Target (Available in stores; see here)
The concert was amazing!  We had great seats (10th row).  The music was wonderful, and Jon Bon Jovi is as sexy as ever!  :-D

Gaga for Lady Gaga

Coated denim jeans:  Target (Available here)
Top:  The Limited (old)
Happy Sunday, everyone!  Hope you're all having a great day!!!

Last night's Lady Gaga concert was ahhhh-maaaaaaaa-zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzing!!!!!  I had so much fun and am so in love with her artistry and her messages of individualism, self-acceptance, and tolerance.

I knew I wanted a wild look that was very different than my day-to-day.  While I didn't want to get too extreme with my clothes, I loved the idea of going all out with my hair and make-up.

Earring (left ear):  Express
Feather earring (right ear):  Claire's (Available here)
Crystals:  Hot Topic
My sister's a hair dresser and helped me create this fun mohawk with a slight pompadour front.  

I did my own make-up, playing around with the idea of a futuristic hybridization of cultures with the bindhi and Kabuki-inspired lip.

Thank you to everyone who voted for my concert outfit.  

Unfortunately, I didn't get a ton of votes for what to wear, so I went with the votes that I got, but made some changes based on my needs for the night.


Look #1 was the unanimous winner:
Jacket/cardigan:  Converse One Star for Target
Top:  The Limited (Available here)
Blazer:  New York & Company (Similar here)
Purse:  The Limited (old)
Shoes:  Payless
Necklace:  eBay (Similar here)
Bracelets:  Torrid, The Limited (Similar here)
It was cold outside, but I didn't want to deal with a coat at the concert, so I decided to swap the cardigan for the blazer from Look #3 for a little more coverage and warmth.  I also opted for an assymetrical sequin top as I preferred the scoopneck of the tank with the blazer.

As much as this overall look was forged out of the desire to play dress-up, I have always loved mohawk-styled looks on women and have always wanted to try it.  This look is as much "me" as any other.  Having so much fun with this look inspires me to try out an edgier cut/style with my hair.


Would you ever try out a mohawk?

HELP ME CHOOSE!!!!!

Tomorrow night, I am going to see Lady Gaga in concert. Woohoo!!!!

The problem is that I'm not sure what I want to wear.  I have pulled together some possibilities for the concert, and I'd love your input.

Look #1
Look #2
Look #3 - may opt for a different top with pants and blazer
I kept my hair simple and wore no jewelry for these photos to serve as a blank canvas of sorts.  For the concert, I plan on doing some crazy, fun hair and make-up and accessorizing differently depending on the outfit.
 

Which of these styles should I wear? 

Please vote for #1, #2, or #3 here on blog, Facebook, or Twitter
