Dayglow "The World's Largest Paint Party"

Since it's debut in 2006 Dayglow has taken the nation by storm. The out of this world combination of high-energy music, lights, performers and of course LOTS OF PAINT is truly a unique and spectacular show. When I first heard that the tour was coming to Bethlehem, Pennsylvania I was ecstatic, and of course immediately starting thinking of what I would wear. I've been to many events that showcase quite a spectacle but nothing of this magnitude. After racking my brain for something imaginative and original that would not be completely ruined by all the paint I decided to get creative and make my own pair of Snooki inspired boots. 
I used a pair of ugg-like boots from Wal-Mart and attached faux fur with elastic and Velcro. They looked awesome at the beginning of the night but by the end of the night they were a Dayglow inspired work of art. There were some equally artistic and creative outfits but these were definitely one of a kind.

If you have been to Dayglow or a similar event I would love to see how you made your outfits unique and individual! I need inspiration for the next show

Suburban Street Style

For a long time I have considered myself a city-girl stuck in the suburbs. It is easy to get the impression that life outside the city is filled with cardigans and pearls and that every house has a white picket fence. Being a resident of suburbia doesn't mean shopping only in department stores or mirroring "Bree Van De Kamp". 

When city-sleek hits the suburban streets it tends to turn some heads. It is easy to put together a fashionable ensemble when you are surrounded by designer boutiques on every block, but when the seasons latest and greatest are not just around the corner creativity goes a long way. Cities are filled with people using fashion to make a statement, but less competition means more recognition when you are the neighborhood's most stylist resident. This suburban fashionista mixes patterned tights with loud colors to prove that every community is home to lots of fabulously fashionable ladies. 

Love this Lehigh Valley Street Style !
