Look of the Week!

Filed Under Look of the Week, Sip and Shop 

Whew! The Shop Tart is exhausted from last evening’s Dirty 30 Party at VanJean. The birthday girls didn’t look dirty at all - they looked gorgeous! Both of them were wearing bright blue. Susan’s dress was stunning (Oops! With all that Champagne In all the excitement, the Shop Tart forgot to ask who made it!) and the bright blue made her skin just glow! Speaking of glowing, Elizabeth barely looks like she’s expecting, but she is! In true VanJean style, she was wearing a Mint dress, with the belt a little higher than normal - she’s one of those pregnant ladies that manages to look like a maternity model. Gorgeous!

The Shop Tart couldn’t settle on just one Look of the Week, because everyone looked fabulous. These looks should help you plan your Fall party look - Take your pick! Without further ado…here’s one of birthday girl Susan and Melissa Blanchard. Melissa’s in a gorgeous chartreuse shift by Mint, wearing piles of gold and turquoise necklaces. Did you know necklaces are the new bangles? Wear as many as you like, ladies!

And here’s the other birthday girl, Elizabeth, in a Mint dress with an embellished belt. She’s standing with Kristy (of Tullulah fame), who’s wearing the Safari shift by Tibi.

Speaking of belts, embellished or otherwise, they’re big. A lot of dresses come with belts - and not ugly belts, like the one that came with your First Day of School dress in the second grade. Nope, these are gorgeous and you’ll wear them with more than just the dress they came with. Christina’s dress in the photo below, by Elijah, came with that gorgeous embellished belt. Kindall’s top is by Tibi (the Shop Tart is sure of that, because she has the same one, as does a certain lady ruler of the gourmet scene in Columbia, as does Kelly Ripa.) Later in the evening, she added a lace wrap by Phillip Lim to the look. So pretty!

And the last shot of the evening - but maybe not the last glass of Champagne! - Melissa and Allison, in a gorgeous blue dress with embellished shoulders, reviewing the evenings photos…

You know what the Shop Tart says…never miss a party. And she’s sure glad she didn’t miss this one. Happy Birthday, Susan and Elizabeth! And thank you all for a lovely time!
