Dinner Date Look and my Anthro Splurges from today

With just a few weeks left until we head east we are taking every opportunity we can to spend time with friends in general, and enjoy what the local area has to offer.  Last weekend, hubby and I double dated with some good friends in St.Helena for dinner at the cutest little Italian restaurant, Tra Vigne.  We dined on the patio and enjoyed the amazing weather and scenery.  I have to say, I'm going to miss the wine country, even if we aren't drinkers.  It's an absolutely stunning part of the bay area.  After dinner we headed to Napa to the Oxbow Market where we grabbed a sweet treat at Three Twins Ice Cream...YUM!  It was a great night out with dear friends.  I decided to wear a top I got from Ruche a while back...I had the neckline altered to fit me better:


What I Wore:
Garden Aura Silky Blouse-Ruche
Rock Star Jeggings (Black)-Old Navy
BP "Tee" Sandals-Nordstrom
"Sweet Drops" Necklace-Anthropologie (via EA Trade Market)
Bracelet-J Crew
Repercussive Light Earrings-Anthropologie
Ring-Banana Republic

The top is just casual enough to work for day or night, but dressy enough to be dressed up a little for a special occasion.  Works both ways!

Yesterday I went on my last "girls day" trip with my best friend here before we move...it was a really fun day!  We spent a few hours at Anthro, of course, where I found a few "can't live without" items for the summer.  I've been a little stressed about being able to keep cool this summer so adding a few more short sleeve options to my closet was the way to go.  I picked up these cute tops:

I think I should be good to go now...bring on the heat!

What have you splurged on recently??

I don't know about you but this week FLEW by for me. We were constantly busy!  I can only imagine it's not going to change much from here on out.  I'm looking forward to the weekend...we have lots going on.  Tonight is "Resident night" which is basically our graduation party with my husband's department.  Finally after attending so many of these parties for other people over the years it's my husband's turn to be graduating from residency!!!  Very exciting, indeed.   Tomorrow, some of our friends are putting together a good bye party/gathering for us so it'll be fun to spend time with everyone that night.

Hope you have a great day...thanks for stopping by!!!

  2. I'm also seriously considering the Lemon Orchards Top....could you give a review? I need some direction - whether it fits small or on the big side....I'm petite, small frame but have a large chest....what do you think?

  4. Loving these fun summer tops. I would love a review of all 3. The Bowman V-Neck has been at the top of my wishlist, but I haven't had the chance to try it on.

    1. Thanks Skylette! If you're referring to the pink top, than no, I'm afraid it's sold out. I bought it back in the fall.
