It began last Wednesday morning with an email. I had just been invited to Los Angeles Laker- Ron Artest’s December bash and toy drive. Thrilled, but also in a state of disbelief, I sat staring at my computer screen. Anxiety began to fill my veins. Like every style conscious woman, the first question that popped into my mind was, “What am I going to wear?” With only two days to find the perfect fit, I decided to skip the crowded malls and go straight to the Bella Maven girls for help.
After a long debate with myself, I decided that I wanted to go for the glam rock look. But just how would I pull this off and still be comfortable and confident at the same time? I knew I needed the perfect dress and just the right accessories to do the trick. Thank God Bella Maven had so many great selections for me to choose from.
The puple palomar dress saved my life! I absolutely loved it and so did everyone else at the party! It’s stretchy and the body shaping material hugged me in just the right places, accentuating what needed to be accentuated and hiding what needed to be hidden, if you know what I mean. Ahem. The dress was classy, hip, and occasion appropriate. Whether walking through the club or dancing on the dance floor, I felt confident in every stride and two step. Black textured tights and black ankle booties undoubtedly complemented the dress and aided my rocker aura.
Knowing that glam rock style is not complete without the appropriate details, I chose a few edgy pieces from the Bella Maven jewelry collection. Scouring for studs, metals, and metallics, I decided on the snake earrings and gray graham leather wrap bracelet with gold studs. If these two pieces didn’t scream “she’s bad”, nothing could. To tie the entire outfit together, I went with the studded rockstar clutch.
I truly felt like a rockstar that night and I have Bella Maven to thank. So, thank you Bella Maven. I heart you!
