Dressing up for the Opera / Look do final de semana: Ópera


Nota: este post é bilíngue, a tradução para o português está logo abaixo.



 Since we mostly post during the week, it's not often that I get the chance to share a weekend outfit with you guys, especially a dressed up outfit. This weekend, I got the chance to go to the Opera with some friends (including Jen Jenkins, one of our past guest bloggers), and it was my first time going to one! We saw "The Elixir of Love," and it was fantastic.

Michael and I go to the symphony a lot, so I had some idea already on what to wear, but at the same time, since I've never been, I was a little bit nervous. I wanted to wear my long dress, but was afraid it would be too formal, so I opted for an outfit that I figured would blend in well if people were very dressed up or fairly dressed down:

Coat: Nordstrom Rack | Dress: ModCloth | Tights and Jewelry: Forever 21 | Shoes: Guess | Clutch: Express


I think I managed a pretty good outfit, and I was happy about how it turned out. Everyone looked really nice at the Opera, and I saw some amazing outfits that made me wish I was a street style photographer, so I could capture all those amazing looks. People are very stylish at the Opera!

A gente sempre posta durante a semana, então não é sempre que temos a chance de dividir com vocês os nossos looks de final de semana, especialmente os looks pra sair. Esse findi eu tive a oportunidade de ir a Ópera pela primeira vez! Assisti "The Elixir of Love" com amigos, e achei a experiência fantástica. 

O Mike e eu vamos sempre ver a Sinfonia, então eu tinha alguma idéia do que vestir, mas ao mesmo tempo como eu nunca fui, eu estava um pouco nervosa. Eu queria muito usar o meu vestido longo, mas na dúvida, optei por um look que eu achei que seria bom caso o pessoal tivesse muito bem vestido ou bem casual. 

Acho que escolhi bem, eu fiquei muito feliz com o look. E todo mundo que eu vi na Ópera estava super bem vestido, e eu fiquei morrendo de vontade de tirar fotos dos looks para postar aqui no Occupy!
