Birthday festivities started on Saturday, with a 1st birthday party for one little Lulu, who was born on her mama's birthday. The party was a success and my dress, it was cute.
dress: Max & Cleo
shoes: Cynthia Vincent for Target
sunglasses: Kate Spade
Yesterday my lovely coworkers took me to lunch, and I wore a new birthday outfit in honor. Now, I generally like to be creative when putting outfits together and I try to not dress head-to-toe in one brand. But I saw this outfit at Ann Taylor LOFT and they were having that good 40% off sale and I bought it all--dress, sweater, and belt.
The dress is straighter than I expected but the size 8 fit. And there was much rejoicing across the land. I think it needs the belt and sweater, though, because of the pleating detail that bunches fabric across your lower belly. Nice for someone who has had a baby, though.
The shoes I wore are SO TALL.
This picture does not do them justice. I am over 6 feet tall when I wear these, people. OW. But pretty.
Ignore my goofy face, this is an oldie but goodie favorite bag of mine. I bought it seven hundred years ago in Brooklyn at Bird and it's cut in the shape of a grocery bag, but in the softest leather. I believe it was called the Bodega Bag at the time.

This one is out of focus (it was early, yo) and my hair is wet, but you get the general idea.
I adore this dress and these shoes. So comfortable I feel like I'm in my jammies.
Another out of focus picture (my poor husband hadn't had his coffee), but I have to tell my sweet girl happy birthday as well. Being your mom is the best thing I've ever done.

You are both so freaking CUTE. Love love love the Loft outfit, head to toe.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! Wish I had some extra bucks and a thing for bags, I'd do you a solid and take the Marc Jacobs off your hands, just because it's your special day.
