Hi Everyone!
My amazing hubby and I attended a Valentine’s Day Banquet last night. I have to admit, I am not a February 14 kind of girl. If you’ve been reading this blog for a long time, you know that I am an anomaly. I believe in showing love every single day of the year. I do not like to be “prompted” to do anything.
With that said, here is the outfit that I wore to the banquet–it’s all J. Crew:
This is the J. Crew Factory image that I copied:
Details: Sweater, Shirt, Skirt, Necklace, Boots, Purse (similar here)
Thanks for stopping by!
You certainly look special, even though you don't celebrate Valentine's Day as a special day. I like your idea, every day should be 'Valentine's Day' for those you love and care about.
maryeb: You are SO sweet, thanks a bunch for the compliment!!! And, I totally agree that we should show love daily!!!
"I do not like to be prompted to do anything."Me too!! I've never heard it stated better. I hate to think of it as being rebellious. I don't feel that way. I just feel a lot of pressure to do things by a certain time because everyone is doing it and that takes the fun out of it for me. Although I do have fresh eyes with having a little one. I want her to have fun, so right now we're celebrating everything. If she wants to boycott later, I'll support that. lolYou looked beautiful. 🙂
Gigi: Thank you SO much!!! I love your point that if Mini G wants "to boycott later," that's her choice. Love it! That is exactly how I was raised, and I am SO grateful to my parents for letting me come into my own. Bravo.
My hubby & I don't celebrate this day either. We agree to exchange silly cards and that's it. I just disagree with purchasing over priced flowers or going to crowded restaurants. I would prefer a nice walk at the beach any day. I love the colors of this outfit.Alicewww.happinessatmidlife.comHope to see you Thursday for TBT Fashion link up.
Alice: Awww, thank you! I really loved mixing colors here! And, I am totally with you. I will pass on the overcrowded restaurants and exorbitantly priced flowers!Have a fabulous weekend!
