My dear friends,
I almost didn’t get photos of the outfit I wore to the dinner party because it was going on six o’clock when I finished dressing. The exposure value is pushed all the way up and the flash is on as well in these photos. So the color/lighting is a little odd- the farther I stand from the camera the more the photos look darker and less focused (sorry). I shot this look before a long time ago but forgot about it, I skipped photos because I was so behind. I didn’t wear it anywhere good anyway, so definitely no harm in repeating! I do occasionally repeat entire outfits that I’m really fond of.
The dinner party was excellent! Dinner parties at that household are never to be missed. If you’re out of state then come back, seriously. I ate so much. I never can say no to corned beef and the home made banana chocolate cake with icing made entirely out of chocolate. I can hardly ever eat cake any more due to too much milk in the icing so of course I ate two pieces (they were thin, I swear)!
Love,
Alex

My immediate reaction when I saw this was, “VELVET LEGGINGS?? I NEED SOME!” Oh, yes.
Yes, get some! They’re warm and I got these for $2 from Forever 21, they should be going on sale again in a few weeks as they clear out for spring!
I hate it when I get caught without enough light, but these really look quite good considering.
that cake sounds AMAZING.
Oh the cake was so good :) I have a love/hate relationship with sunset because the light is gone so fast. I can start off fine but two minutes later be having problems with exposure and have to adjust constantly :P I’m getting better though (I hope).
beautiful scarf!
Thank you! It’s my new favorite, goes with almost anything!
