date night maxi dress

August 8, 2017

Well, the countdown is officially on. I hit 36-weeks pregnant this week and can’t believe we are already here! Time really does fly. Even though we’ve done this once before, I still feel unprepared. For my first pregnancy, all I could think about was preparing for the baby, but it’s so different with a toddler! My to-do list seems ever growing, but besides my to-do list, my top priority is to enjoy every moment with William and also spend some good, quality time with Caleb before we hit a few months of newborn bliss aka sleep deprivation 🙂

Last weekend, my parents offered to take William after church on Saturday night and we took them up on it. They ate at his favorite restaurant Seabreeze, went for a night swim and then woke up to pancakes in the morning. While William had special quality time with his Gigi and GB, Caleb and I enjoyed a good old date night at one of our favorite Dallas restaurants, Houston’s, and slept until 9 am the next morning. It was just what I needed!

I got this blue maxi dress for our trip to Scottsdale earlier this summer and decided to dress it up for our date night. I honestly can not remember the last time I wore a pair of heels! It is one of my favorite dresses this summer – the length, the fact that it can accomodate a nine-month bump and the way it can be easily dressed up or down!

casual date night

August 16, 2016

Thursday night is date night for Justin and me and it is one of my favorite nights of the week. It’s a time for us to sit down, enjoy a cocktail or glass of wine and chat about our week. I look forward to when Thursday rolls around every week, especially this week as we are heading to Vegas for a weekend getaway! Most of the time I wear some type of casual date night look like this: a striped tank, distressed white jeans and these sandals. But some Thursdays you may find me in workout clothes, coming straight from working out with Justin or, depending on the day I’ve had, instead of heels I may just opt for flats!

We believe versatility is key in any closet. As a rule of thumb, we try to only purchase items that can be worn with multiple things, to style more than one look. Which is where the Gigi New York Maggie bag comes in. It’s a great handbag for everyone – it’s light & small, yet it easily stores the essentials: cell phone, lipstick, credit card, keys & then some! It can be worn crossbody or as a shoulder bag – and it has a removable strap and can convert to a clutch! GiGi New York offers a collection of beautiful handbags, wallets and small leather goods made from the finest leather and handcrafted at their family owned facility in New Jersey. To show the versatility of this bag, we teamed up with Gigi New York to style it three ways. First, as a ladylike bag for a luncheon or wedding shower. Second, as a date night look for dinner at our favorite local Thai restaurant. And last, for a casual look to run errands or meet the girls for a glass of wine. We think this bag would be a great addition to anyone’s closet – and now through June 8 Gigi is offering 15% off! Enter the code WEAREFRIENDS at checkout.
