I would like to take this opportunity to wish myself a happy birthday! Feel free to follow suit. There’s not much exciting about turning 28, especially when your birthday falls on a Tuesday. Luckily, a dozen of my wonderful friends celebrated with me on Sunday, which is when I wore this outfit. We started off with an epic champagne brunch, so naturally I wore a shirt with fruit all over it. If there was ever a shirt that said “I came to get my brunch on,” then this is it.

Brunch was followed by shopping, more cocktails, and then a movie. Not everyone’s idea of a fun day, but it’s definitely mine! You have to do what I want because it’s my birthday, dammit. And I came to get my brunch on.

Happy Monday, everyone! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. If you didn’t, no worries…you can live vicariously through mine, which was pretty fantastic. On Saturday night I went to the wedding of a law school friend and wore this fancy schmancy dress that my buddies at H&M sent me. Honestly, I probably wouldn’t have picked it out for myself but I’m kind of glad I got peer pressured into it. The whole sheer, deep V, cut-out back business is pretty sexy and not usually the kind of thing I’m drawn to, but I actually felt pretty confident in this.

Speaking of H&M and peer pressure, I of course have to remind you that if you live in the U.S. you can order this dress (and lots of others) online now! I have my eye on this chambray dress for my next order. Oh and don’t forget about the 50 States of Fashion contest either. All you have to do is snap a photo of your stylish self and post it on Instagram with the hash tag #HMShopOnlineIN or whatever your state’s abbreviation is!
