BLACK AND WHITE FLOWER DRESS - Last Chance Boutique CORAL CARDIGAN - Gap WHITE WRAP BRACELET - Cara ZEBRA EARRINGS - Heavenly Treasures BLUE PURSE - Linea Pelle for TargetMULTI-COLORED WEDGES - Cynthia Vincent for Target |
You know how when you go to college and your parents turn your room into a gym or an office? Well, I decided the only way I'd get my "dream closet" would be when my girls grow up and move out. Then I can turn their room into my closet :) I haven't checked with Camo on this, but I did ask Princess Sparkles. She said, "yes" AND nodded. I assured her she could still visit and sleep in my closet. I'll even have a special chaise lounger for her and a pull out for Pigtails (Mary Jo helped me come up with that one!).

Anyway, for my meet up I wore this black dress and added color with a coral cardi, my Cynthia Vincent for Target wedges and a bright blue purse. Mary Jo looked fab in a light blue top, a skirt, ballet flats and an amazing bright green bag (which I was totally coveting!!!). Check out Mary Jo's blog, "Trust Your Style" if you haven't already. She's so creative and often mixes art with clothes and accessories.
I had such a lovely day. It was nice to have a relaxing brunch sans kiddos (though nice to see their smiling faces when I picked them up!). And to think, I'm only 2 decades away from having my dream (closet) come true!!!

So fun! I hope to be able to meet some of our blog friends someday!
Great choice with dress and pop of color in the cardi. So wish I had these wedges too, you have worn them with so many things!
I only have 2 more years for Kayla to go off to college. Maybe I can turn her room into my closet. She probably wouldn't like that much, lol!

Super cute dress!! You look lovely!
How fun! I hope you girls had a fantastic time. :) You certainly look fantastic, I love the pops of color and that dress is gorgeous on you!
the hem on your dress is beautiful. I smiled as I read your post because that is basically how my enlarged closet was created...after the kids left home.
Blogger meet ups are the best! And I love what you wore!

HA! I love the idea of turning the girls' room into a closet...when they're being bratty teens, you can go in and start measuring for your shelves just to annoy them :)
Glad you had so much fun at the meet-up!
Blog meet up are fun.
got to love neutral + color combo!
This black dress up is perfect- I love the scalloped detailing! I would love a dream closet but in a one bedroom it's just not happening...yet!
Love your dress & a blogger meet up sounds like fun :)

Oh my gosh. You and I need to have a blogger meet-up someday. My husband and I joke about moving the girls upstairs so I can turn their bedroom into my closet. :) I'm glad I'm not the only one eyeballing their child's room!!

oooo I think you are closer than you think in terms of having your own dream closet! I dream of a closet one day with full shelves and a chandalier hanging with an island in the middle...AHHH! The outfit was adorable and so nice to meet a blogger isn't it?
I love the floral edging and those funky stipy wedges!!! You look fab!
Ooh I love your dress! And woohoo for blogger meet ups! Always fun :)

I've never done a blogger meet-up. I love the hem of the dress. It's so interesting.
Such a feminine girly look! You have a nice way of changing up things. What a sweetie Princess Sparkles is for saying yes to the closet. LOL at friend Tara's idea.
Haha, I love your dream closet idea! That's always been my dream too--to have a whole room I can devote to a closet! Anyway, I love the hem of that dress--it's so pretty!
I love this outfit! SO far it's one of my favorites!! Love it love it love it! :) and the dress is amazingly pretty!

I like your blog! It's really nice! Please visit mine, and tell me what do you think!
