When I heard that my friend Cristy was going to have a Great Gatsby themed birthday party, I literally jumped for joy! I saw the movie in 3D the day it came out, and ever since then I fell in love with all things Gatsby; the movie, the book, the soundtrack, and not to mention the FABULOUS fashion! I had mentioned in a post before (here) that Tiffany and Co. designed an entire line for the movie. Between the Tiffany and Co. ad campaigns and Cary Mulligan’s (plays the character Ms. Daisy Buchanan) spread in Vogue, I was so beyond inspired for this outfit. And, of course, thinking the entire time “What would Daisy Buchanan do?” I knew I could not sport my long hair, so the talented @makeupby_ea pinned and curled it up to give it the bob illusion. Above are some pictures from the party. As you can see, we had a swell time. Sadly, I never found my “Gatsby,” but I did find an adorable puppy (close enough?). If you observe the second picture, you can see that Simba does not have mutual feelings of affection, and was totally over being my Gatsby for the night. Oh well! You can’t win em’ all.
Have a Happy Monday! Get ready for some all-American Fourth of July posts coming soon!
Toodles!
