A Few Muses-Themed Fashions

Like any homesick transplant, from time to time I do a little online window shopping: the NOLA t-shirts at Dirty Coast and Storyville, the NOLA jewelry at Mignon Faget and the various awesome accessories at Fleurty Girl. Here are some fashion selections that might be particularly appropriate to wear that special Thursday evening.

T-shirts:

Dirty Coast "Throw Me Sumthin' Sista" shirt

Etsy seller inexplicableconfetti's "Shoe Dat" t-shirt

It's not actually available as a shirt per se, but I love this and this entry in the Storyville Mardi Gras shirt contest (Contest #19)

And here's a pretty extensive collection of shoe-themed t-shirts

Accessories:

The most glamorous Muses accessories are certainly the ones the ladies throw (oh, how I adore those shoe bracelets and flashing rings!), but since those are more of a privilege than a right, exploring other options is worthwhile. Etsy has some great Barbie shoe jewelry that I think would be fun to wear to Muses (or, maybe make your own Barbie shoe earrings or bracelets?)

A brightly colored wig (maybe from Fifi Mahony's?) would certainly be eye-catching.

Of course, this article suggests that the ultimate accessory for viewing Muses is a sign...

Footwear:

If you want to wear sparkly heels while trying to catch glittery heels, they're relatively easy to track down right now due to the wild popularity of the sparkly shoe trend.

If you're a more practical gal but still want some sparkle on your feet, you could get some glittery sneakers or flats, either from standard commercial sources or on etsy. A few examples follow:
   Sequined converses
   Sequined dance lowtop sneakers (those are really cheap, so they may not be super substantial)

Etsy seller Princess Pumps has great sequin sneakers (and many neat riffs on the classic ruby slipper)

Or you could really get into the spirit and make your own

Maybe you even snagged some Muses shoelaces in 2013 to add to your pair?
