glitter in the powder room



The other day a friend and I visited a Burlesque show in the Bassy Club and she made some pics of me in the Ladies' lavatory - not the most glamourous location, I know. But my beloved 50s cocktail jacket, found on a fleamarket and my 6-inch-high beehive was worth it.

The jacket is so classic: made of crêpe, bat sleeves, a nipped in waist and very nice embroidery with little black jet pearls.

  
Pockets with scallop! 



While we powder our noses, let´s have a closer look at my make up: I used Kryolan pro-products only, padded the pink glitter on the lids just with an eyeshadow base, draw a winged liner and put tons of mascara on my natural lashes to get that spidery look - it´s not a faux pas anymore - it´s en vogue!


The huge pink glitter flower in my hair is a souvenir from fabulous Las Vegas!


The show girls were so hot, that I had to cool down myself a bit.



I hailed a taxi in my vintage Sergio Rossi high heels and felt very happy to live in a town
where you can enjoy a great show with international acts on a common wednesday.

I absolutely ADORE your beautiful 1950s jacket, it was waiting for a loooooooong time for you to come along and snap her up with love. I love seeing all the embroidery and beading detail shots and oh my scalloped pockets! Your make up is utterly superb, your tights, flower, shoes ... damn you've got a rockin' figure!!!
