Outfit of the Day (1.5 Weeks ago): bridal shower

I was fortunate to have a fabulous bridal shower thrown in my honor a couple of weekends ago. It was delightful to see my best friends (many of whom met each other for the first time) come together and create a really fun event for me. I really felt the love... and feel lucky to have such amazing friends!

Anyway, on to the clothes... I got this J.Crew dress on sale for $49.99 about three weeks ago, down from around $130 or so. This is an in-store only dress, and there may still be a few out there for this great price. I wore it with a merino cardi from fall 08 and my Kate Spades I got on sale last summer.

























Pinks, oranges, and yellows: cheerful colors for a happy day!

























What has he gots in his pocketses? Yes, I love the pockets. I kept a tissue in there just in case I got all verklempt. ;) This dress also has boning and is lined in cotton, which are nice touches.

And how I plan to wear it in Vegas(!), a little more dressed-down with J.Crew sandals from last summer for during the day:

























We leave for Sin City tomorrow night. Ack! I'm in a bit of a wardrobe panic about it, which I'll elaborate on more tonight or tomorrow morning. :)

Does anyone else have this dress? How do you style it?

Awww, a shower, how nice! And you had a perfickly lady-like *and* practical (thank god for tissue-holdin' pockets!) ensemble for the day! Dang, how I swoon over those Kate Spade shoes (again!). Have fun in Sin City!
