What To Wear To the Inauguration
Happy MLK day and by no mere coincidence our esteemed President Barack Obama was inaugurated into his second term today. This is an exciting time for the country as we watched the First African American President take office once again and witness Beyonce sing our National Anthem. Its also exciting because like most of you, I just could not wait to see the ensembles of the First family and especially our First Lady of the United States. I recently spoke to my best friend who was fortunate enough to volunteer for one of the official balls taking place this evening. I of course asked, "what are you wearing?" My girl was in a quandary and rightly so because you want to come with just the right glam for what is a traditional and conservative environment. So I thought about what I would wear should I ever be lucky enough to attend such a prestigious event and I came up with the following...
This is a princess worthy look with just enough glam to not overwhelm all the dignitaries your sure to be rubbing shoulders with. This look includes a gorgeous cascading gown, Stuart Weitzman strappy heels, Alexander McQueen clutch, diamond and blue sapphire earrings, and a simple diamond bangle. I then chose an ornate up do, defined eyes and paired it with a soft nude lip gloss by Chanel.
What would you wear to the inaugural ball and who would you take as your date?
