Day 44 of 57: Will you, won't you?

    On day 44 of 57 Days of Dresses, Jason and I had a late dinner at the Wild Hare. I got champagne in a can! With a straw! I didn't even know champagne in a can was a real thing, but there I was, drinking Sofia Coppola--it looked like a kid's drink.

     The room we were seated in was like a closet. But, there was no one else in there so Jason and I got up and danced to "Ball and Chain" from 40oz to Freedom--like me and my old roomie Megan Re used to.
    We had a smashing good time in what appeared to be the high-chair and booster seat storage room. The room had a rustic painted-white stone wall and a checkered floor, so why not push our antics even further and do a photo shoot?
    This is a dress I got from Anthropologie as a gift from Jason's mom. It's a tea length circle dress, and for some reason it reminds me of Alice in Wonderland.
     The sleeveless bodice has an attached sash that ties in the back, and the back is also accented with three white buttons columned down the middle. The skirt is lined with a decorative underslip, and it does great filled out with a crinoline petticoat. The dress has a side zipper, and the two side pockets on this dress are the cherry on top.

Day 35 of 57: Hearthrobs and headlights

    Day 35 of 57 Days of Dresses is my official birthday. I spent it as a recovery day from yesterday's birthday fun. I said "It's my birthday, buy me a drink!" to about any and everyone who came within my vicinity if I didn't have a drink in hand. Let's just say it worked - each time. It was a long and confused day, but I finally came back to life around 5 in the afternoon - I just can't throw it down like I used too!
    Anyways, today's theme was "stylishly comfortable," and I had just the dress. This gauzy cotton mini dress is soft and light - and the way it drapes! I got it at my second favorite local boutique, Firefinch. The dress has a dropped waist and the bodice has flowers embroidered on it. The skirt has 3 layers of cotton gauze and crepe, and it has draw-string patchwork pockets with more flower embroidery. The U-neck, the button placket and the waistline is accented with flouncing. This dress is so summery, and I can't wait to wear it again!
