Last night was a date night to celebrate Alaric being done with his classes. We decided to walk to the destination. When we passed by The Church of the Immaculate Conception I thought it would be a good spot to take pictures.
dress: crimson & clover
I've posted this dress before but I just can't stop wearing it. It is definitely one of my favorite pieces. When I'm going out and completely out of ideas and everything I try on is blah I put this dress on and feel instantly put together.
everything thrifted at various shops
Alaric's blazer was only 50 cents. Party in da club.
I was sure these pictures turned out ok but I probably should have used flash in retrospect. I decided to make them a little smaller to negate the blurred out and flash bombed look.

dress and shoes: thrift town, shorts: crimson and clover
I decided to be adventurous and bring the tripod for a change of scenery. I wore this blouse to match the shine and color of my new vintage shoes which I'm quite taken with.
These vintage flats were only $2.

Bea totally wore herself out at the park today playing with her friends. She's had quite an exciting couple of days including a sleepover with her cousin. She is turning out to be so gregarious, always talking about her little friends. She even has a "happy dance" which I have yet to capture on video.

I just came across your blog accidentally, and I just love it!! Every outfit you wear is great! I love how stylish you are, seriously you are my hero in that department! Anyway just wanted to drop a comment to tell you that. :)
ReplyDeleteWell for starters, you are a babe and a half and your hubby is handsome! yup. night photography is so difficult. the flash washes you out when you use it.
ReplyDeleteFor finishers, those $2 shoes was money well spent. Charm school.
That blouse is so pretty!!! So is the dress!! The vintage store you shop at seems like a great place. Congratulations on Alaric finishing school and your cute date!
ReplyDeleteYou wear ruffles so well!
ReplyDeleteNight photography is tough. You'd have to use a tripod to keep back the blurriness without a flash.
I love your golfing shoes so much!!!!! Both those outfits are lovely!

That red dress is a stunner. It really is an outfit all by itself. The shorts outfit is my favorite though. It is chic and whimsical at the same time. That's a great mix if you ask me.
