All Glammed Up

I am really excited about this post because I got to dress up a little more than usual!  A special thanks to the Marriott at Glenpointe for letting me use their location for my pics.  My mom works next to them and they were so kind to let me do this :)











Dress: C/O Faviana/ Shoes (shop similar) & Clutch: Mandee/ Necklace & Earrings: LolaBlue 

I have to admit that I felt so glamorous and elegant in this gorgeous Faviana dress.  I mean really, how often do we get to be this fancy?! It's not every day that I have a special occasion or cocktail party to attend and this is the perfect dress.  Red is such a stunning color and I absolutely love this sweetheart neckline which makes it super sexy but still so classy.  The length is just right and the material hanging from the front and back add a little something extra.  It also made it more fun to shoot pics!  I truly felt special and a little like royalty in this dress and I think that every woman deserves to feel that way at some point or another.   

With a dress like this, I think it's best to have your hair pulled back so that you can really focus on the details.  I did this low side bun last minute and it was great for the look I wanted. I also went with a bold red lip as well and even wore lashes since I typically do for special events.  I got these silver shoes for only $5.99! They were having a double sale so I really scored with these.  The final touch was this gorgeous statement necklace and I kept the rest of my accessories minimal. 





When we went inside, the lighting made everything seem a little vintage which was really cool.  As we were walking around looking for good places to shoot, we came across this glass room that had a wedding table set up and it was literally perfect for this dress.  It gives the effect that I am actually at a wedding or a reception of some kind.  In one of the photos I had my hand up on the glass not realizing that it looked as though I was standing in the room touching the center piece.  I don't know why, but in the moment my mom and I couldn't stop laughing.  I swear we are so silly when we shoot :) 

Sorry for such a long post but I hope you liked it!  Make sure to check out all of the gorgeous Faviana dresses when you're in need of a little glamour for a special occasion!
