Silver Bells






So, these are the pair of sequin shorts I bought on Black Friday. They are also the pair of sequin shorts I wear when I dance around the house to Motley Crue and other 80s hair metal. Aren't they amazing? So flirty. So fun. So festive. I do have one warning, though: sequin shorts cause chafing. FYI.

Thanks y'all for bearing with me this month. I know I've been MIA. Oops. But that's behind us now. I finished up my classwork over the weekend, so now I'm just obsessive compulsively checking to see if grades have been posted. I know I'll get A's in both classes, but until I see it with my very own eyes, I won't completely believe it.

Anyway, I'm going to link this post up to Collette's "Bloggers Rock the Colors of Christmas." Silver FTW!




Sweater: Madewell
White shirt: Express
Shorts: Ruche (they don't have them in silver anymore BUT THEY DO HAVE BRONZE AND GOLD! Want.)

    So jealous you have snow and can dance around to 80s hair band music. We have 80s hair bands on karaoake, give me a few drinks and I think I am a rock star, lol! Have a Merry Christmas!

  5. i just bought a pair of sequin shorts and realized they are not for thighs that actually touch when you walk. lots of sequins sticking to each other. luckily mine don't cause chafing! either way, you look amazing in them!

  8. Very cool shiny butt! I love those shorts. I've tried a fully sequin tank before and I got terrible pit chaffing. So, I'm not surprised that the shorts do that. But the cute factor outweighs the pain, no?

  25. Oh, I love these shorts! Really, really love 'em. Paired with the terrific tights, they make a striking impression.

    Someone with a personality as big as yours deserves clothes with equally large brio.

  38. I've heard it's advisable to wear sequins for this New Year's. I'm not sure why but still. So, I guess you're ready for that! ;)
    And congrats on battling December! :))

  39. Too gorgeous for words!! I adore how you styled up those sequin shorts. For as glamourous as the they are, you really made them work brilliantly into a more practical outfit, which I love!! The sweater is perfect:)

  40. I bought a F'IN AMAZING dress that's rainbow and 100% covered in sequins. (Well, not the inside, but you know what I mean). I'm on a sequin kick. I am so going to hunt down a pair of those shorts at some obscure consignment/thrift shop...

  42. All of those wonderful comments you left me made me laugh out loud. I was positively guffawing. I love how your shorts have super tiny sequins on them. It makes sequins much less obnoxious when they're tiny. Of course, I wore a dress to the homecoming dance this year with massive sequins on it. Nearly an inch in diameter. I think I was going for the obnoxious look. Also, I REALLY want your tights.
