A Night at the Theater

March 5th, 2010 Hillary No comments

One of my Vendors sent me Tickets to see the Broadway Musical Dream Girls at the Ahmanson Theater in Downtown LA.

Note on theater attire: It is so hard to get Los Angelinos out of their jeans! The world knows LA is the capital of casual chic, but there are many occasions when glam-ing it up a bit should be strictly enforced. Only a handful of men wore slacks jackets were even more scarce, the majority of them were in jeans and khakis. Ladies, we all know you have something else besides in your closet besides a Juicy track suit to wear.

I do wish this city had the desire and make ones self presentable and dress up for events. Yes, your butt may look awesome in skinny jeans, but I think we can take a bit more appreciation of the occasion and not down play it by wearing something you’d wear to the dog park.

Just a bit my personal pet-peeve on the disappearance of occasion dressing. Don’t get me started on my feelings of disappearance of Vegas glam! (I think I may touch on that in the future).

Zara velvet, jacket, Arden B. gold with purple sequin tunic, H&M sateen leggings, BCBG booties, Rachel Roy purple sequin bag, J Crew earrings and Betsey Johnson bracelet.

All of my accessory close ups came out horrible, but here is a shot my bracelet by itself. It was an gift from my mother, I love all of the fun charms and it makes a delightfully soothing noise.

Oh, and the show was fabulous!!

The singing would blow any of those idol hopeful and some of pop stars off the stage! Don’t get me started on the costumes!
