How to Get Nancy's Party Look
This Halloween, I dressed up as Ingrid Bergman circa Casablanca. However, I was shocked and dismayed to find that the only red lipstick I own is pretty old, and with mud undertones, as opposed to the traditional blue and purple.
Last week my mother came home from CVS with some great L'oreal red lipstick in True Red. If you have the funds however, rouge allure is always the best. The "CHANEL" stamped on the side is priceless.
Nancy seems like the kind of girl who wears pink lipstick by day, and red by night. That is also my lipstick philosophy.
I found this dress on Anthropologie, and it seems like a modern version of one of Nancy's cocktail dresses. She stuck to lighter colors generally, but this bold orange is to die for.
Add a pair of nude heels, and you're out the door as soon as Ned swings by to pick you up.

Wow, great idea for a costume:-) I would love, love, love chanel lipstick; pure glamour.
there's something about those nude heels that just screams wonderful
Love those heels ...
That dress is so LBD modernized.
And those heels are just so =]
I really hate traditional heels. It makes me think people are outdated or too boring to do anything bold. Or you know, not trendy. But I fell in love with those nude pumps. Something about the patent leather, perhaps. (No pun intended since my blog name is PS&R.
