On Her 53rd Birthday, Luann de Lesseps Wore Not One But Three Amazing Outfits

It looks like Luann de Lesseps had a very happy birthday yesterday — with multiple outfit changes to prove it. The Real Housewives of New York City birthday gal took her Instagram followers along on her busy day, starting with an appearance on Page Six's TV show. Not only did Luann look fabulous for her guest spot — she wore a blue ruffle Jovani dress with a dramatic full-length ruffle — she also was in great spirits. 

"Things in life can turn around. All of the sudden I'm at Page Six and enjoying myself instead of picking up the paper and going, oh no, again, me again?" Luann joked as she cut into a birthday cake from the show. 

Next thing you know, she posted a snap of herself in a very glam, James Bond vixen-esque golden evening gown. "Performance ready," the newly-minted caberet singer wrote on the photo. 

Then in yet another look, Luann appeared in a very cute coral orange jumpsuit with a plunging neckline and ruffled cap-sleeves — a perfect look for her birthday outing to The Carlyle hotel for jazz. 

You'll notice that two out of the three outfits were missing Luann's signature piece: a statement necklace! Obviously with ruffles like that, no necklace needed. But don't think that Luann's sleeping on her favorite accessory.

She made time on her birthday to shop at "Lu's happy place": that's right, a store devoted seemingly entirely to statement neckaces. "Look at the statement necklaces, don't tell anybody where it is. This is my only little hideaway," Luann said in her Instagram Stories video.

She found perhaps the necklace that's saying the absolute most too — just look at that stunner in the photo above on the right. "This, you reinvent your whole shirt with this. Put a black top with this and wear this, it's unbelievable."

Luann, please tell us you bought this one as a birthday gift to yourself!
