Happy Valentine’s Day Weekend folks!
I will admit, I truly thought Valentine’s Day was a lame holiday, but I think that’s how every single person feels. When you’re with someone you love, the holiday becomes a little less hokey. Yes, my boyfriend and I show each other that we love each other every day, but having a nice romantic weekend away is sometimes just what you need when life gets hectic.
My boyfriend and I are off to San Diego this weekend (he let the surprise slip this morning) so there will be plenty of photos to come soon. I’m wanting to start putting together travel diaries, so maybe I can finally get one going this weekend.
Anyway, if you recognize this dress, it’s because it’s a favorite of mine and I recently wore it to my sorority formal. It’s a lovely piece with delicate lacing and open back detail, which is perfect for a more upscale Valentine’s Day Date. I bought this dress from Free People on a whim, thinking I’d never wear it, but now it’s one of my all time favorite purchases. I do wish I bought it in black but, of course, I bought it in a deep purple. After all, it’s my color.
Side note: I’m a DD and I can even manage to wear this dress without a bra. For reference, I’m a size 6 and I bought this in a small.
I plan on taking this dress to a great many more events, maybe even on our cruise in March. It’s just to beautiful not to wear!
Anyone else have plans for the weekend?
Free people never fails to impress me with their dresses! This one looks gorgeous on you!
