There was really only one thing on my “Santa, you better bring me this or else” list, and it was this dress. Santa delivered, and therefore I shall allow him to continue bringing me gifts again next year. Things I love about this dress: the abstract houndstooth print, the flutter hem, and the loose but still flattering shape.

It’ll look great with a jacket or cardigan for work, but I couldn’t wait so I wore it to a NYE party. I also wore it to dinner that afternoon. Yes…afternoon. We had dinner at 4:15 because we waited too late to make reservations. On the way to dinner, we put on a “Get Turnt” mix on Spotify, then discussed what exactly “turnt” means, over-enunciating “turnt” every time. We’re taking “old married couple” to a whole new level in 2017.

Well, here it is: my New Years Eve outfit! Yeah, I know that was a few days ago, but I wanted to make sure this 2015 thing stuck before I jinxed it. Like maybe that Y2K thing got delayed for a decade and half. You can never be too careful. But I think we’re safe.

I went to a house party with about a zillion of Kristin’s theater friends. My outfit was a hit with the gays. Compliments included:

“This sweater is the most PERFECT thing happening in this room right now.”

“THIS [gestures up and down my body] …is EVERYTHING.”

A couple people were even keen enough to notice my sparkly ball ring. I tried to get people to watch it drop, but apparently it wasn’t as exciting as the real thing. Maybe I’ll try a bigger ring for 2016.
