I have to say, this weekend was pretty fun. Sometimes I get into this anti-social mode, where I feel like I have to use the weekends to catch up on work. That usually leaves me feeling pretty blah. I enjoy hanging out with my friends, and I have definitely started to prioritize it more. The result? I have really been wayyyy happier.
The weekend started off with a bang. It was one of my oldest (not in terms of age; in terms of how long we have known each other) friend’s birthdays. We went out on Friday night, and it was totally a night of non-stop laughter. I am going to blame that on the pickle shots.
This picture pretty adequately sums up the night.
It only seems appropriate to take this opportunity to tell the funniest story of mine and Audrey’s friendship. In 7th grade, we had a science teacher that wasn’t our biggest fan. One day, during basketball try outs she allowed the students that were trying out for the team to leave class 10 minutes early. Audrey and I decided to leave because we thought it wasn’t fair that she was favoring the athletic people. Long story short, the teacher asked around, and found out that we were definitely not trying out for basketball. What, do we not seem athletic?! She wrote us up, and at the time it seemed like the end of the world. We survived! Look at us now; we are pretty much still the same!
Anyways, the point is I constantly have to remind myself that it is all about balance. I don’t want my whole life to only revolve around work. Even though I did a lot of fun stuff this weekend, I shouldn’t feel guilty. I am going to spend this cold, rainy Sunday catching up on work.
That was all a tangent to what this post is really about: introducing you to my fabulous cobalt dress. I try to not to pick favorites, but I am pretty obsessed with this one.
I usually gravitate away from color, but I was feeling risky last weekend, and decided to try it on at Gap (it doesn’t look like they still have it online). Basically, I fell head over heels instantaneously.
Looking at these pictures, it is even brighter than I remember. I love it even more.
As I mentioned before, I am really trying to dress up for work now. I am pretty sure there is a direct correlation between a good outfit and the ability to conquer the world.
I had to take a close up of the neck party! I love to layer.
