So no these pictures weren't taken at night, but this is what I wore for a weeknight date. Let's emphasis weeknight. That never happens! It was totally worth the painful early next morning. But one of the challenges of meeting the boyfriend after work is the attire and walking friendly. He's a suit and tie guy and a very handsome one I might add. I'm pretty laid back. So sometimes I look like a college kid next to him. Finding a balance of dressing up and still incorporating practical and very me pieces is what I have been working on. Because let's face it, I'm not dressing like I belong in a corporate environment. This shift dress and leather jacket are my idea of dressing up while still being me and practical for lots of walking. Does anyone else have this situation?

It really hasn't hit me yet (outfits still not planned out thoroughly). But it's down to one day for Lucky Fabb. If you'll be there, I'd love to meet you!

Hope you're having a great week! xo

  1. I'm so jealous you get to go to Lucky Fabb, and I'm hoping to go sometime in the next year! I love this outfit though, and the lace detail at the hem of your dress is so pretty. My guy is very casual and I love dressing up, but we live in a pretty small, casual town, so I have to make my cute, dressy looks still realistic for where we're at so I don't look ridiculous :)

  6. Those overtheknee boots look amazing! It's so hard to find a simple sleek black boot without breaking the bank!
