Haven't planned what I'm wearing tomorrow. 2' snow outside so safe to say I know I'll be wearing boots on my feet.

So many compliments on my beaver hat today (this wasn't today but it's the same hat). So strange I've worn it dozens of times without much fuss. Suddenly in a snow storm everyone loved it (perhaps they all wanted one?). Someone in a dept store said I looked like a magical tree fairy, I said that was just the look I was going for (er not really - I was going for stay warm/be seen).

Oh I LOVE the hat!!!

You look beautiful and elegant, TT - as always [emoji254][emoji254][emoji254]

We are going to Peter Luger (IDK if that's famous-famous or just NY-famous) tonight with DHs cousins so I will get dressed. Tomorrow is my mother's birthday and Saturday we have houseguests (Jack's friend and his mom) so lots of getting dressed coming up.

Outfit today on the left and gala dinner outfit on the right (from last Saturday) - I figure it counts for something as I don’t have much opportunity to dress up. Although, based on bfs reaction to this pic, I will probably wear it for my birthday dinner. :smile:

The gala outfit is a bit glitzier than my usual look, but it was freezing cold and VEGAS!! Where else can I pile on so much sparkle and shine?
 
Genie, how do you find the rockstuds comfortwise? I have been tempted to try a pair but I wonder how they would feel after an hour or so of being on my feet. They look great on you with that dress.

They are surprisingly comfortable for cocktail party standing/walking, after the first few wears. Mine are patent and I went a 1/2 size larger as the next size down was too small in the heel. The kitten heel and the cage makes them quite secure, and once I put rubber soles on, they will be great for slick floors. I had some trouble walking on tile/marble with the leather sole. I also put a small insole under the ball of my foot for extra comfort.
 
When I bought them, I thought they were an impulse splurge that would never get used. I have actually taken them on conference trips and worn them for dress-up dinners so I'm quite happy with the purchase. And once I get the rubber soles on, I can wear them more freely around the city for nice dinners etc.

@pigleto972001 yes they are! How very awesome they were your wedding shoes! Do you have any pics to share? Of the shoes or the outfit?

Thank you snowball ! I thought maybe it was silly to wear them ... but honestly they are so comfortable and I already owned them. I tried on some gorgeous Manolos that hurt so much just to stand in them for a few minutes.
I figured being comfortable and shopping my closet could work [emoji38]
 
Pigleto - Oh that dress is so you!!!! I love it for your frame. It's lovely and elegant. Perfect choice of the shoes too! Yours look like they fit your foot better. Mine a re a bit loose.
