Holiday Party Outfit - Sparkly Tank

Last Wednesday night we went to a very good friend's holiday cocktail
party.  The outfit I wore was quite different for me.  I've never worn
a sparkly top before.  I am completely copying the sparkle tank idea
from another friend who wore a very similar top to this very party
last year.  I was seriously in love with her sparkle tank, and I
looked for a long time for the perfect one.  I found it this past
September through Rue La La. 





I wish I had a better photo of these earrings.  Unfortunately there is no stock photo I can find.  I'll have to wear them again and get better photos.

I am holding this clutch in the photo, but it pretty much blends in to the tree so you can't see it.  Here is the stock photo so you can see.  I love this clutch:

*The back side of this tank doesn't have the sparkle....it is plain
with regular ribbing.  I love this idea since it makes it a little more casual to go
with dark denim for a night out on the town.  This allows for just the right amount of sparkle.  Also, the tank itself is charcoal, not black, another reason to love this tank even more.

*Since I had four friends make purchases from ruelala.com who used me
as their referral, I earned a $40 credit which I used to purchase
this $39.95 sparkly tank.

  5. Pear, thanks! I think I'd like to try wearing this tank with my denim skirt and black high-heeled boots.

    Donna, I saw the newer version of this tank at Macy's. It's on a lighter gray background. Really pretty!

    Joy, sparkle is fun. I actually struggled in choosing my earrings. I was going to stay away from any more sparkle, but I saw another girl wear a similar top and she had on even bigger sparkly earrings and it looked beautiful.

    profberta, thanks! I appreciate that you are reading and commenting. I love this clutch, and I don't wear it nearly enough.
