Sometimes it's nice to just throw a quick costume together out of random items and just have fun with the process. I wore this to a Work Less Party Party. The Work Less Party I believe is a political party that has only one platform of working less and they throw 2 big parties a year where anything goes. I've gone a few times and it is a great time. Quite the scene to take in. This was a couple weeks before Hallowe'en so I wanted to just find something weird and quick to wear. I found this sequinned short set at a local vintage store and added sparkly tights, Oxfords, a tiny hat and some old-school clown make up. I actually think the effect is quite fun and it took hardly any effort. When I looked at the tags on this sequinned set it said 100% silk, I imagine this was quite expensive originally. Where do you think this outfit was meant to be worn? I'm thinking some sort of '80s mother of the bride situation?

I do love this outfit. I kinda think I would wear the shirt (sans shorts) with a blazer and call it a Christmas season look. Anyway, that's what you should do. I really have no idea what the original intention was... maybe cocktail parties?
