What I Wore- Dinner With Friends

April 28, 2017 by Sharon

To be such homebodies, Dr. T and I have gone out a couple of times in the past few weeks and had dinner with friends. We live a very quiet life, and with Dr. T working such long hours, we treasure our time spent together at home! But, it is so nice to be invited out by friends and have a meal out!!

We have had a couple of dinner invitations recently! It is a great reason for me to get out of my yoga pants and put on real clothes!!

Our most recent was a dinner invitation to one of Dr. T’s co-worker’s home. This is what I wore:

A light pink sheer tunic from Banana Republic. ( A hand me down from my sister) Joe’s Jeans, shoes I picked up at TJ Maxx

I love these shoes that I found at TJ Maxx. I think they look
a lot like the shoes below that I’ve seen on many
fashion blogs.

These shoes by Loeffler Randall cost $395.00 at
Nordstrom. I paid $25.00 for mine that I bought at TJ Maxx. I feel very good about my purchase- especially since I don’t even know if I will still want to wear these shoes next summer!!

Another dinner invitation was to meet some friends from church out at a local restaurant. It is still quite cold here in the mountains of New Mexico. The day we went to dinner, it snowed all day!!

 This poncho from The Loft is a great weight! It was perfect for a snowy day under a heavy denim shirt.

I plan on wearing this poncho to outdoor evening concerts all summer!!

I’ve tried to “spring it up” a bit even though it is still cold here. Pants are also from The Loft (similar). Shoes are Cole Hann drivers (similar)

Our front door is extra tall so it makes me look incredibly short!!
