I got dressed up!

A momentous occasion occurred this weekend: I wore a dress for a public occasion for the first time since before COVID! It's not like I never wore a dress during the pandemic—I occasionally put one on just to work from home or for special occasions with my boyfriend, but this was the first time that I got all gussied up and stepped out beyond my front door! And so, I went for the cutesiest, most festive dress I could find!

The occasion was a friend's birthday party, so a party dress, complete with tulle petticoat, was in order! But because I was in the mood for something truly one-of-a-kind and avant-garde, if you will, I decided against the traditional and safe sandals, and went with calf-high white boots!

On top, some dogwood flower earrings in a matching aqua hue finished off the look. I was pretty pleased with this one. The party host told me I looked beautiful, and I even matched the balloons!
