Dinner Date

I wore this out to dinner just about a month ago now. This last month just FLEW by. Boyfriend and I had dinner in the South End after we'd signed our lease. Now we've been moved in for almost a month!

I seriously love this outfit. I feel like this is the kind of look I'm constantly striving for. Simple and chic with a bit of bling. Boyfriend was making fun of me because while I was deciding what to wear I had my "outfit inspiration" file open and was blatantly copying different outfits I have saved, haha. I KNOW I'm not the only one that does this, so don't judge! ;)

Also, these are the most comfortable heels I own currently. I hardly ever have good luck with Aldo shoes, but these are keepers. The heel is perfect, the shape is perfect, and they're easy to walk in. Boyfriend even thought they were sexy. Definite all-star shoe.

if it ain't broke: stripes & boots

 

 

 

I've worn variations of this outfit multiple times throughout the summer, fall, and now winter. Like they say, if something ain't broke, don't try to fix it. Maybe it's the New Englander in me (okay, it's most definitely the New Englander in me) but a good striped top is hard to beat. Pair it with some caramel colored shoes and a chunky necklace, and to me this is a perfect casual look. I'd wear a variation of this every day if I could.

I'm going to apologize ahead of time in case the posting gets sporadic over here the next few weeks. Things at work have suddenly changed drastically, so I'll most likely be stressed and frazzled and may not have much time for blogging. 

In the meantime, don't forget to enter my first giveaway!!

So, these pictures don't quite do this justice, as by the time I took them it was after a long day at work, things were getting disheveled, and I was experimenting with a middle part that day (I don't think it's a good look for me). Regardless, I love this shirt. I had my eye on it for the longest time, but because it was so expensive I never bought it. Then I got a J.Crew gift card for Christmas and I knew exactly what I was going to get. I marched into J.Crew, grabbed this shirt, brought it to the register...and it was on sale! Like, almost half of on sale. Don't you love when that happens?
