What To Wear For A Cocktail Party: Rock’n Roll Style

Oh, how I love a great party!  But the party wouldn’t be so great without the perfect cocktail dress, right?  Right!  Pop open the bubbly and take out the champagne flutes ladies because we’re about to get dressed for a night out.  A cocktail dress can be as simple as an LBD, but seeing as the LBD I chose to wear had a little “princess” in it, I wanted to make sure to add some rock’n roll features for an edgier appeal.  This Alexander McQueen for Target denim jacket (circa March 2009), Ray Ban wayferers, Theyskens’ Theory wedges, and of course my leg candy helped turn this poofy Pleasure Doing Business frock into a cocktail combo I’m sure many of you will approve of.  Tweet us @nubry with your thoughts on “rock’n roll cocktail” style and tell me how you think I did!
