^^This is me “casually” taking a giant step so I can show off that this is in fact a jumpsuit, not a maxi dress. Why is it that we feel the need to let people know exactly what kind of garment we’re wearing? “I love your dress!” “Thanks – it’s actually a skirt and top.” Or: “I love your hat!” “Thanks – it’s actually an authentic Nigerian gele head scarf.

I don’t know, but for some reason I find it much more exciting that this is a jumpsuit, so dammit, you’re all gonna know about it. Please compliment me accordingly.

How could I possibly have been married for seven years already?! I mean, what have I even done since July 2011? Let’s see…I went to law school, graduated law school, studied for the bar exam, passed the bar exam, got a job, bought a house, took a few vacations, got back in shape, learned to cook, voted in 2 presidential elections, and…yep. I guess it has been seven years.

This was the first year we decided to skip anniversary gifts and save our money for another big trip — San Francisco and Napa Valley next March! That’s not to say we didn’t celebrate day-of, though. After work, we went out for Italian and stuffed our faces (in the classiest way possible) with gnocchi. I wore this outfit all day – I thought it was put-together enough for work, but also fun for a date night. Now I just have 7 months to plan all my wine-tasting outfits.
