Double Duty

The famous American Apparel lame bodysuit has made its appearance today! If you are going to wear something as bold as this...why not go all out?! Paired with it is the lame ruched tube top (to avoid any indecent exposure!) and the perfect thrifted highwaisted skirt. Wrapped at the waist is a black sequined scarf that I used as a belt and the patent bag is from Lululemon.
The shoes are new and they are from Aldo (also gold and very blinged out!).
Who knows what got into me today!- I think I just wanted to pack in a little extra "sizzle" into my wardrobe/look.
Whats great about the bodysuit is that it can double up as a bathing suit meaning..less for me to pack on my next vacay! Believe it or not, i'm actually not a heavy packer...

tip for you if you wear this as a bathing suit: DO NOT wear it in chlorine water because it will get very "cracked out" and lose its lustre and shine (the reason I bought it in the first place!)
