i’m wearing: anthropologie striped dress, necklace c/o stella & dot, glitter flats c/o wanted shoes (extremely similar jcrew version here) and my kooba bag.

this weekend i met up with a few of my girlfriends for a glass of wine to celebrate december birthdays. i knew it would be an early evening so i kept it casual in this dress. but i was even more thankful i wore it after i scarfed down truffle popcorn (weird appetizer but delish), duck fat fries (wth) and mac & cheese. talk about comfort food. i always feel sorry for the tables that sit next to us whenever we get together…when you’ve known each other as long as we have…there is no topic that is off limits. lol…

p.s. so as i was looking for links to my glitter flats i came across the glitter furla candy bags…and of course when i saw that they were on sale…i HAD to buy the gold one. i REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted the multi-color one but i figured since i just got the kate spade arm candy clutch (of course it is now on sale too)…i would probably get more use out of the gold one. well, as much as a 37 year old mom can get use out of a plastic gold glitter bag. at least i don’t have to worry about eep ever spilling on this one! =)

    I love this striped maxi! That necklace looks so cute with it too. And yes, zip lining was a BLAST. There were other things too, tight rope walking between the trees, etc. It was fun!

    I say the same thing when I get together with girlfriends. I also feel bad for the servers who never get to take our order because we can’t stop talking for one minute to look at the menu!

    I was thinking about the gold furla bag too but I heard it was too stiff and plastic-y. Did you get yours yet?

    Lunch/dinner with YOUR friends sounds like mine. HA! WE were getting looks from the table OVER one day and one of our nights — I think we REALLY scared our waiter off women, hahah.

    Adore the dress and the gorgeous weather. I definitely could not wear that dress with sandals right now. If you get a chance check out my recent post on 30 in 30.

    As I sit here bundled in layers freezing I can’t help but feel very jealous of you running around in the sunshine with sandals on. I think I need to move! Loving this dress-perfect and so versatile.
    Hope you had a wonderful holiday!

    You must be like 6 feet tall because maxi dresses and skirts look so great on you!

    I’ve always been hesitant to try maxi dresses with sleeves, but you pull the look off quite well!

    I enjoy your blog, thanks for the daily entertainment and inspiration.
