sparkle motion

shakuhachi fashion dress dreamecho boston fashion style

Over the weekend, Partner and I went to watch a friend's performance at Jacques', a tranny club in the Theater District. It was the perfect opportunity to debut my Shakuhachi dress. While we were there, I got the vague impression that one of the venue's denizens was eyeing me out—or, more specifically, eying out my sequins. You can be dang sure, though, that I wasn't the only besequinned one in the room.

In other news, chalk this up to yet another outfit where bike shorts perform in a Starring Role. (If they were worn out of sight, merely for modesty, then they'd be relegated to a Supporting Role.)

Outfit: Target black cami, Shakuhachi dress, F21 lightweight trench, AA gold/black shiny bike shorts, Pierre Hardy x Gap brown platforms, Twelve by Twelve off-white ribbon necklace.

That is an awesome necklace. I love that blue dress, looks like there is sequence in there. Love those shoes too! Jacket, just tops it off! Great outfit!

Love love love how the bike shorts just barely peek out. Also, that necklace gives the dress an entirely new neckline. Love it. :)

This is an outfit I wouldn't like on a model or in a store, but I somehow love on you. Sheer dress and sequins for day? Somehow to rock it. :)

I love the shoes + the ribbon necklace!

fabulous outfit.

this is a daring look, but i love it on you -- with a different shoe and no bike shorts this would come across verr-rry differently. it takes skill to make it demure yet edgy. excellent styling all round!

Fantastic outfit. I especially love the trench coat and the shoes. Everything you add, though, gives so much more to the dress. Love it!
