What would YOU wear to a star-studded awards gala - in the middle of a recession? Not that the fashion critics give a hoot about my working girl threads at these glam gatherings, but here's what I grabbed for my marathon day-into-night doing interviews on the red carpet and
behind the scenes video production at the Palm Springs Film Festival Awards Gala -- just in case anyone out there cares: a silky, black, fitted, Alain Manoukian V-neck dress that hits just above the knee, which my stylist friend Ruth brought over from Paris. ($85) Comfortable but sparkly rhinestone-studded Lucite wedge sandals by Beverly Feldman from the Sak's Outlet. ($79) To ward off the chill, a soft black, 3/4 length Ellen Tracy walking coat that was on sale at Bloomingdale's. ($200) A flashy blue topaz and diamond pendant necklace that my husband gave me (Priceless!), with pave faux diamond earrings from Nordstrom Rack ($39). Flexees (cheaper AND better than Spanx) to hold it all in -- and a SMILE (free)!
Then, a quick change into a warmup suit and fleece-lined Merrell's for the long drive home.
Just another friendly tip from your favorite San Diego video production company!
