Third time in a jumpsuit, I know, right? What were the odds of that happening? Coupled with the fact that these photos were taken so long ago, perhaps two months back? But I completely forgot I had them stashed away until this morning. And I must admit, I was hunting around (rather desperately, might I add) for some unused outfit images when I found these, lurking tucked away in a corner folder of my Mac. Thank you, blogging gods.
Remember that jumpsuit challenge for the Fab 40s? Well, this was my first option. A sleek, black, strapless tube jumpsuit with smocked bodice. I was all set to parade it but somehow, the entire look just felt way too safe to be a Sheela ensemble so this was shelved for another day. Set aside until today.
I went full tilt with the comfy vibe by adding on that blankety-soft plaid cardigan. I think the asymmetrical hemline and fringe trims save it from looking too PJ-esque. I mean, I hope so. And those mile-high heels too.
My Dior sunnies make me feel so Lady GaGa in every possible way. A toss-up between being a monster and a paper gangsta, trying to shield myself from the onslaught of flashing bulbs that is the paparazzi.
But in the end, flashing them the merest hint of a smile on my poker face as I turn and leave them starstruck. Or rather, nauseous, with my attempts to be cool and pun-ny. Did I slay you? I slayed me GRIN
Love, Sheela
