Epic Party in Vancity

Photobucket
Last Friday, I had a blast at the birthday and housewarming party of the lovely Allie from Vancity Allie. The cocktail party was EPIC! Since Allie is both a mixmaster of cocktails and a superb chef, it was a real treat. Check out her pictures here; warning though as it may make you hungry and thirsty.

Above: Allie, in her pink frilly dress, and me.

I had no idea what to wear up until Friday. Would it be my princess-y Betsey Johnson pink dress? Or maybe my new grey Built by Wendy sweater dress? I made a mad shopping dash at lunch and found this studded black bustier at one of my fave shops. I knew I had a few different mini skirts that would go with it (like the Diesel faux leather number below) but I needed something to keep me warm.

That's when I found this faux fur cropped jacket at H&M. I picked up some curly lucky bamboo as a gift and I was set to go.

At the party, I got to hang out with Raul from HummingBird604 (picture below), and met Richard from Canucks Hockey Blog and Greg of On the Rant Again (bottom picture). Lots of fun!

This week, I've got another horse to try and a nice dinner date to look forward to. I'll have some pictures from last week's horse trial up soon I promise!

Damn it I knew I forgot to meet someone at the party. I think we may have come cross path a couple time at the party. Must b/c I wasn't wearing that orange jumpsuit...

You looked FANTASTIC! Very sexy outfit... I loved it! Perfect for the party :)

That's a terrible picture of me though... hahaha... I look confused :)

Where did you get the bustier? It's REALLY cool.

I had a great time hanging out with you, hopefully we can all hang out together again, maybe in a more intimate setting :)

Great post Liz!

That party was sweet, I don't think any of us could host a epic party like that, Allie did top the bar.

It was great meeting you.

1. your bustier and faux fur jacket are awesome!
2. is allie's hair really that long or is it extensions? because if it is, then a. she's my hero and b. i'm so jealous
