What I Wore: 8.12.12

I wore this when celebrating my 24th birthday a few days early at the Tonga Room with family -- felt like the right place to bust these trousers out!

Grandma (and co.) hated the lipstick, naturally.

If you're interested in the makeup, click here for a "Get Ready with Me" video where I recreate this look!

And Mom felt pretty cute (and I agree!) in her vintage dress, so she opted to get her picture taken too ;)

What I Wore: 12.28.11

Time to showcase yet another awesome find from the Saks outlet in Petaluma (my mom and I went there 3 times while I was home -- one was due to the fact they forgot to take sensors off two sweaters we bought the second time. But hey, we still ended up buying this dress and some shoes on that third trip; so you win this time, negligent outlet employee.) I got this dress for over 50% off! I was really happy to see that it worked perfectly with my new Shoemint wedges because I wasn't sure if I even owned anything I liked pairing them with.
