This weekend seems like it's been full of non-stop eating and drinking. And it all started off Friday afternoon with $1 oysters and a few Sidecars during a trip to one of our favorite Happy Hour hangouts, (pictured here) Maison Premiere.
We had to cut our oyster feast short however, as that evening I was playing host to our friends' annual Thanksgiving in August dinner, a pot-luck style feast that inevitably leaves everyone full to the gills. This year, I took on the task of making the turkey (my first ever - and a surprising success!) while Micol prepped an amazing side dish of roasted brussels sprouts with fried onions and almonds.
As for my wardrobe, I wanted to get a little fancy (hence, the form-fitting dress and fun accessories), while still keeping it casual, so I topped the whole look off with my new favorite vest - a piece I created myself by lopping off the arms of a tailored army jacket that I've had since high school. You can bet I'll be wearing this item a ton as we start to transition into Fall.

Fabulous fall transitional look! No doubt, a versatile vest for fall (great DIY)! Loving the texture on this dress!

Love the outfit & the vest looks awesome, I've done that to so many of my old jackets over the years, such a great way to get lots more wear out of them. I really wish we had Thanksgiving in the UK too, I love any excuse for a huge feast, my best friends & I have a 'fake Xmas' every year for that exact reason!
ReplyDeleteLove the dress and vest combo, too cute!

Love the dress! and so nice in combination with the army vest, and you pull it off so nicely!
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna have to steal your Thanksgiving in August idea – I love any excuse for a Thanksgiving feast! I think your look is perfect for such a celebration – nicely transitional and sort of edgy ladylike.

Your DIY army vest is AH-MAZ-ING. I'm obsessed with it. What a spectacular idea. Gotta love the oldies but goodies in the closet that just need a little tweaking to make a seriously awesome comeback! Lauren, where do you get your hair color done - It's fab!

Thanks so much lady! I actually get it done by my friend Shane, who's a colorist but also does my cut. He usually comes to my apt to do cut or color, but let me know if you want info on his salon! I'd be happy to hook you up
