When I go out, it's a test to my body's temperature: it's FREEZING walking to the party and then a SAUNA at the actual party. There really is no winning but since more time is spent sweating, I usually dress for the party (unless it's below 50 degrees then this betch is wearing pants).
Top: Pac Sun
High-Waisted Shorts: Charlotte Rousse
Usually as far as shoes go, I wear combat boots since I hate the black (perhaps even radioactive) sludge that gets on my feet at parties. But of course those boots are designated for parties and not nice/expensive.
