Dinner in the city for my mom's birthday. Restaurant says Men's Attire: Jacket Required. This is a popular place for politicians and proposals, we as a family felt we should dress the part.

Red silk surplice front shell from Ann Taylor Loft. Found it in their sale rack last January for $39.99. Black Triacetate jacket and full-leg trousers from Ann Taylor. This is my “interview suit,” but has been worn to weddings and formal occassions with the right shell underneath. Black pointy toed leather pumps. Gold and red stone chandelier earrings from monet. Thin gold bangle bracelet.

Makeup is MAC's Studio Fix foundation, applied with a sponge moistened with The Body Shop's Vitamin E Face Spritz. Chanel concealer. Touch of Almay bronzer. Gray shadow from The Body Shop on the lid and lower lash line. Two coats of MAC Zoom Lash in black. Lipcolor is L'Oreal's Volume Perfect anti-feathering color in #600 Defining Mica.

Hair was done curly with my arsenal of Marc Anthony Strictly Curls products.
