What good is a birthday without a party?
Well, we decided to take it quite a few steps further...
"I want hats, fascinator hats!" she screamed.
And this is what began the movement towards not only a night on the town but also custom designs for themed hats and well, of course, shoes!
Why not try Butterflies, Unicorns & Ice Cream for that matter...

"I'm not spending a ridiculous amount of money on shoes,
I'll just pop some tags, in good old Red New Chic Knowledge Debutante style, and make my OWN!"
Of course, typical fashionistas would turn their noses up to worn shoes but when you think about it... when in the heck would you wear these babies again???
It's amazing how creative you get when you think about something long enough. Things pretty much just show up in your path. And you find yourself saying things like "If I were Ice Cream this would totally go with my theme" or "Only a unicorn could pull this off!"
I mean honestly, a unicorn.
Think about how many shades of awesome a unicorn could be and then sprinkle glitter on top of that. Feathers, pastels and don't forget the fabulous fascinator WITH ears!
We didn't leave out the horn either. The heel/ horn(s) of the shoes became a canvas of pure glittery fairy-tale magic with every step.
Check out the heels pictured above and be envious!
Yaaaaas! Cheers to that!
We honestly had no idea what we were stepping into.
A creative night filled with music, old fashioned cocktails and quite a receptive crowd towards our dressed up shenanigans.
"Is this for the Kentucky Derby? Who are you? What a pretty hat you have! Oh those shoes!"
Of course there was a theme to our evening and it fell somewhere between Lisa Frank and the roaring 1920's. No rhyme or reason, just a birthday girl's wish to dress up with pastels, glitter and to make it stylish.
We did quickly discover that fascinators are somewhat of a sought after, lost art.
How lucky for us that we are creative!
I'm sure some are aware that they are "cute hats" but honestly what are they appropriate for besides garden weddings and of course The Kentucky Derby?
And why do they have to be either cute and dainty or straight up ridiculous?
Well, let's see...
"The history of head-wear is spangled with frivolity. During the reign of Louis XVI, some women of the French court embellished their elaborate, sky-high coiffures with plumes and sprays of flowers, while others drew stares of amazement their poufs au sentiment, a display of cherished memorabilia nestled in their bouffant hair...During the 1920's, American flappers wore head bands to give their cropped hair a sleek silhouette (so it wouldn't "flop" when they danced); for extra flair they decorated the bands with dangling brooches or bobbing feathers."
Of course there are always the star studded actresses from the past with their boas and amazing hair dos. We all admire their glitz and glamour.
So why not make a girlfriend's birthday a night to remember? She was definitely the center of attention!
Not to mention the fact that she went as Ice Cream! Who doesn't love Ice Cream???
Happy Birthday to our dear friend!
Love,
Bianca xoxo
