This weekend was my bee-day! Thank you to all of you who wished me happy birthday via twitter & facebook. I had a quiet birthday celebration on Saturday with my man, just us two, some dinner & some quality shopping time. I've never really been one to have big crazy birthday parties or celebrations, so this year was no different. The one year I planned and threw a party for my bday I got sick! Although I had fun, I didn't enjoy it as I should have. Sometimes less is more, I try to keep that mentality in my style as well. I don't always like to really get dressed up, unless I have to. Being it was my birthday I did want to look cute, but be comfy and not wear my usual jeans or other causal attire. I wore one of my Evans dresses I had recently bought, and thought it would be perfect for my bday. Here I go with another floral print, it's still a subtle floral, but floral none the less. I also wore my new favorite "army" style jacket. I saw this style jacket on a few other bloggers as well. I loved how Big Beautyful Mess mixed it up with dresses & skirts. I created my own version, although I must admit the inspiration came from BBM's Lucky Challenge. So go check her out to see what I am talking about.
