Up 'Til Midnight

As is my style, this blog post is a day late and a dollar short, but for the sake of pointless outfit sharing I present my New Years Dress. (Yes, it is a proper noun.)

I won this dress from the amazing give-away put on by the lovely Carol of Dandelion Vintage! This dress was dead stock with tags, originally priced at $49.99. It is made of fantastic taffeta, with a center strip of silk velvet... awesome, plain and simple... awesome. I felt like an over-dressed princess all night, as we went to a local restaurant specializing in mac & cheese, frog legs, and girls in mini skirts. But really what's the point of going out if you are not painfully overdressed for the occasion?

Because I am a lack lustre blogger, with a forgetful little brain I didnt manage to bring my camera out to dinner or drinks. I did manage to get these few late night shots of my dress, just before midnight.

The new year has been so delightful in so many wonderful ways. I am very excited to see where this year will take me. I wish you all a wonderful new year!
