How was your weekend? Relaxing? Cold? Both? It was both here! More snow in the forecast this week, but for now just very chilly. This is what I wore out on Friday night to my birthday dinner with friends. I've been saving this dress for a long time, waiting for a special occasion, and Friday was the perfect night for it. The color is one of my absolute favorites, and the cut was nice and relaxed.
I had a great two-day birthday celebration. As I said on Thursday, I met my mom in Portsmouth, NH and had lunch at the Friendly Toast, and afterwards I took myself out to spend the gift cards I received for Christmas. This is one of my favorite little rituals, I save all the gift cards I receive for Christmas until my birthday, and then take myself out shopping. Not only does it feel like I'm buying myself birthday gifts, but usually by the end of January, everything is on super sale! I've been eyeing these Kate Spade booties at TjMaxx for a couple of months, but had to wait until the price went down. Lucky for me, they were only $35 on Thursday! I love the little ruffle at the top.
I have to say January has been swell, but I'm ready for February. Are you going to the IFB Conference next week? I am and I can't wait! It's my first year going, but I'm glad I waited. I feel as if it will be very beneficial for me this year. Do you have any Valentines Day plans? Happy January 31st!
