CDGA NIGHT OUT + SHOE GIVEAWAY

Wondering what to wear to an upcoming black tie event?  I was when I got invited to the Costume Designer’s Guild Awards.  It’s always hard figuring out which direction to go – short or long dress?  Read on for how I made my decision!

Did you catch that?  I just swapped out my shoes!  If you have a pair of heels you love and insist on wearing despite the pain they cause, my giveaway of TWO PAIRs of these Rollasole shoes will certainly brighten your next night out!  These suckers roll up in your purse so when you are getting towards the end of the evening and can’t stand your stilettos for one more second, you have relief on the go; they even fit in my little Chanel above.  Enter below to win a pair!

Back to my dress decision – with the temps in the 80’s and my sunless tanner applied, I opted for a short dress rather than a long one.  I think it depends on the type of black tie event you are going to, but shorter seems younger and certainly more fun.  Just make sure the short dress is not too short, looks nice in terms of fabric and detailing, and not too casual.  The sequins and beading on this dress really made my decision for me, plus it fit like a glove.  I was one of the lucky few LA bloggers to get invited to the CDGAs by Lacoste and was beyond excited.  It is an event I have read about for years, but never attended and it did not disappoint.  Everyone else looked lovely, costume designers from my favorite shows like House of Cards and Downton Abbey were honored, and there were lots of celebs presenting these awards – Jonah Hill, Kiernan Shipka, John Heder and Mindy Kaling to name a few.  Amy Adams was also presented with an award and looked fantastic.
