Day To Night Outfit Switcheroo

September 29, 2013 by suzanne carillo

My girlfriend and I went downtown to catch Peter Case at a club last week. The show was amazing. He played for 2.25  alone on stage in a very intimate club.  

Although I took piano as a kid people that have a natural musical talent are like magicians to me. I wish I had even a fraction of that kind of musical talent.

 

We went downtown early and wanted to check out a few of the good thrift/vintage stores on Queen St.  I needed a look that could go from day to night with only a quick change in the car at the parking lot.

I wonder what Superman does. There are no more phone booths to make these kind of quick clothes changes in anymore. Probably changes in his car in a parking lot.

This is what I came up with. 

I'm calling it "retro French internantional spy girl" since Superwoman is already taken.

Or simply…RFISG. I've started printing t-shirts already.

Purple booties black beret

Now all I need is a comic book series and 3 blockbuster movies.

Purple sweater blue Mod Cloth scarf

Purple sweater black cocktail dress

Booties  &  Cardigan – TJ Maxx, Dress – consignement, Belt – Anthro, Handbag – vintage, Scarf – ModCloth

Blue dog scarf

Day to night transition

Then take off the sweater, belt, scarf, hat and boots in the car and voilà…

 

I'm naked.

 

I do wear underwear.

Sometimes.

TMI?


Kidding. 

 

Here is the new evening outfit…

Black a-line dress

Club ready.

Handmade sparkle bib necklace

By far we were the best dressed at the club. I kinda like that though. 

I'd rather be overdressed than under dressed any day.

Gold vintage clutch

Both the dress and the clutch are thrift/consignment finds.

Purple tights black heels

Shoes are very old bought at TJ Maxx, tights – Joe Fresh, Necklace – Made by Me : ) 

Black vintage cocktail dress

Please ignore the uncut grass. Hubby is away and I'm not good with the lawn mower, yard maintenance and any kind of manual labour in general.  

Remember I'm an international spy (not Superwoman).
