The Date Night Blues

This passed Saturday was a special weekend night, we had a baby sitter! Most of the times we get a sitter its on a monday night or something equally un-fun. To celebrate the Fella and I joined some friends for dinner and drinks. I love an excuse to dress up, so of course I went well over the top... Ha!

Also Please take note at the misspelling of "crinoline" HAH

I don't even like the color blue, but I seem to be adopting it all over my wardrobe as of late. I paired the blue with some silver and gray which I feel played together nicely. I did end up wearing my hair up that night because my curls were falling out.

This weekend also marked the Portland Antique Expo, which I went to and bought an armload of frocks for my shop. What did I forget to bring to the expo? Oh you know, just my camera! What an excellent blogger I am...

I will post an update when Anne of Lulu's Vintage posts the snap she got of me at her booth.

cute outfit!

You know that's exactly what I would do, forget my camera! I'm venturing into video for my next blog post but am currently trying to work out how to edit it ;o)

I love the shoes and the dress is divine! What lipstick are you wearing if you don't mind me asking?
It's very pretty.

Love love this look on you. You look so adorable in this dress and I adore the crinoline. I would have never noticed you spelled it wrong.

Beautiful look, you would have been right at home at an Alice in Wonderland premier- so many pretty shades of blue in the movie costumes.

Sound like fun! I have been wanting to attend the Portland Antique Expo for a long time, hopefully I will make it next time around.

I completely understand the much needed feeling of a date night with your gentleman! It makes you appreciate a night on the town, much more than you would if it was an every weekend event.

You look lovely!
