what would i wear: concert

last night, i headed out to staples center with one of my besties for the britney spears concert.  now, technically this is a concert.  but it's also britney, so it was quite the fashion show.  i felt like i was in a club with all the itty bitty dresses, monster high heels, and sparkly lashes around me.  while i want to be comfortable, i also don't want to be the goober who didn't dress up! and i was certainly not dressed to the nines.  i was in my standard concert garb of rolled up jeans, converse sneakers, and this tank..

so i thought if i were to do it again? i would wear the following:

1. bright pants

zara skinny trousers $59.90 at zara

love this season's trend of bright pants, and i love zara trousers.  they fit like a glove, and come in a bevy of colors.  i would pick this red pair and roll the cuffs up.

2.  slinky top

cooperative tie back top $49 at urban outfitters

then i would add this tie back top from urban outfitters. loose and comfy for long periods of sitting in a chair,  but look at that sexy back!

3.  wedge sandal

michael kors "wilshire" wedge $195 at nordstrom

these michael kors wedges are so beautiful.  i love the intricate strappy design and i love the fact that michael kors makes some of the most comfortable wedges around.  i've owned multiple pairs throughout the years, and have NEVER been disappointed. for concerts, i always go with a wedge since you'll probably spend a fair amount of time standing around and at your seat.

4.  cross body bag

rebecca minkoff "baby belle" bag $150 at shopbop

a small bag that can be worn cross-body works especially well for concerts since you really don't want to leave your stuff unattended, and you also don't want to spend time thinking about your stuff during a rockin' set.  i love the summer ready straw and stripes of this style, and would not mind carrying it anywhere and everywhere this summer.

the best part about this outfit? i could throw on a blazer, tuck my baby bag in my tote, and head to the concert straight from work.
