GaGa Belt



A few weeks ago, Cath and I won a contest on Wanderlust's Anywhere But Here (she of the enviable closet and vacation spots). The prize? This awesome 4-studded belt from Asos.com.



This elastic/metal belt put me in mind of Lady GaGa's costumes- well, Lady GaGa "lite" (really, really lite). I skipped the high-cut leotard and bleached hair, and made the belt work-appropriate with the skirt, tank and Jeffrey Campbell shoes.

The geisha-lipstick was added just for the photos. I wish I could say I got away with it at work, but I'm not nearly meticulous enough with my lips. Lipstick-wearers in general, you impress me.

Super cool belt. Speaking of belts, how goes the gunbelt search?

Unknown said...

Fabulous!!! The lipstick is super cute, too bad it doesn't jive outside the photography realm. I for one can't wear lipstick like that because I can't stop touching my face and it will become a sad red smear.

Cammila said...

Wow it's just like the Lady herself, except without the off-putting self importance. And with pants.

Seriously though, this looks very fierce without being costumey. Okay, maybe the splash of geisha lipstick is just a little costumey. But only in a good way. ;)

crazy fiere belt. I find lipstick much easier than lipgloss, which is far too sticky and goopy for my liking

That belt is awesome! Congrats on winning it :D Also, love you in the bright lipstick! I'm a lipstick wearer, but only for the first half of the day. It tends to rub off very quickly, and I forget to reapply. Sigh.

I'm a huge fan of nude lipstick. That way if it slowly peels off during the day, it's not such a big deal. Looking good, girls!!

Noormol said...

these pictures are so cute!! and I agree about lipstick; I stopped wearing it because people would always tell me that I had it on my teeth :(

Annie Spandex said...

I love it! And I love the shoes! I use this longwear lipstick by Maybelline that won't even scrub off without an oil-based cleanser :) It's practically industrial.
