Roaring 20's and a Hidden Gem!

I was excited to attend my favorite local Charity's Annual Gala this weekend. The Gala's  theme was set in the Roaring Twenties and the planning committee did a great job of transporting us to a time when the stock market was soaring, talking pictures launched the motion picture industry, and fashion was entering the modern era! The provocative Charleston was the most popular dance, Ford's Model T was in every driveway,  and women were entering the workforce! After whispering the secret password at the door we entered the authentic Speakeasy where the bourbon was free flowing and we forgot all about prohibition laws and partied all night!

The fashion portrayed the optimism of the time with fun beaded headbands, cute bob haircuts and bold red lips! No more corsets for these ladies! I tried to fit in with this cute blouse with beaded fringe that I picked up at an adorable local boutique. Only $60 :) My sis also rocked it in this elegant Royal Blue sheer beaded number from Cache.  Great Gatsby it was Gorgeous!






















I wanted to give a shout out to the amazing little boutique where I found this delicious vintage inspired top! It's called Etiquette Boutique in Ft. Lauderdale, just off the 17th Street Causeway.   I stumbled upon this shopping treasure when I was in the area getting a haircut...how lucky am I!?  The staff was friendly and helpful, the fashion was trendy yet special, and the prices were fair and affordable! Loves it!  They assured me that new styles arrive weekly so I will definitely be back!

Check out the cute new cross ring I picked up for only $10! Yummy!

Thanks for reading.  Stay Happy and Stylish! xo
