Leopard and Lace

This weekend was the tail end of Detroit Restaurant Week.  What is Restaurant week, you may ask? Well, it's when some of the nicer dining establishments in the downtown Detroit area offer a set menu of 3 courses for the low price of $28/person.  It's a great way to try some fancier fare on a smaller budget.  For me, it's not only a great excuse to try some new delicious foods, but also a great excuse to get all dressed up. I actually got to go twice this year, because I am spoiled :)  But, I didn't get a chance to take very good pictures of my first outfit, but I did for the second one, which I honestly liked a lot better.  I got a compliment from the hostess on my dress, too! Yay!


Sorry the pictures aren't the best. Lighting in my house isn't the greatest for photo shoots, and iPhone photos usually aren't optimal anyway, but you work with what you got, right?

Tuxedo Blazer Luv

Finally remembered to take a picture the last time I got dressed up a little to have a date night with my husband.  Woo hoo!

I'd wanted a tuxedo blazer for awhile, but they were all out of budget for me. Saw this one from Kohls but wasn't sure if I'd like it cropped, but I gotta say, I'm loving it!




Studded Tank: French Connection

Cropped Tuxedo Blazer - Candies from Kohls

Jeans: Levi's Curve bootcut (I'm apparently a slight curve)

Boots: Fergalicious from 6pm

Chain Link Bracelet: Baublebar ;-- click the link to sign up, they're awesome!

I can't wait to find more things to pair this jacket with! What would you wear it with?
