Blue Skies

...that's just what this dress reminds me of.
When I was younger, I always wanted to live in the clouds.
I was certain that's where heaven was...

One of the best pieces of advice S and I received when we were married was that we should be sure to schedule and keep our date nights,
and on Friday and/or Saturday nights, that's just what we do.
After years of being together, I still look forward to our dates.
For now, that's my little piece of heaven
.
Dress - Winners
Silver Belt (worn backwards) - H&M
Shoes - Modern Vintage
Bracelet - BitterSweet
Earrings - Swarovski available here


Is it just me, or are weeds actually beautiful?
S picked this one for me...
LOL, so much for bringing your date flowers...

He also picked this lovely purple one...

...much prefer a hair piece to a corsage anyway.

I hope you all had a lovely weekend!

  45. Gorgeous dress! I love the tie-dye effect but it doesn't look too hippy-ish. The effect is actually really elegant. I think the husband and I need to start organizing date nights as well. We're always so pooped by the time we get home from work, but there shouldn't really be an excuse!
