A Black and Gold Mother’s Day

May 12, 2012

We took the grandmas out to dinner…just a small thanks for all that they do.  Unfortunately the day was one of those crazy, run around days…not a whole lotta time for getting ready for dinner.  So I resorted to an old favorite.  A black dress with gold accents.  Which also gave me the chance to wear these new earrings!  My husband asked what I wanted for Mother’s Day…all I wanted was to visit my favorite store.  Alone.  Wish granted!  Happy Mother’s Day to me!

And Happy Mother’s Day to all the mamasitas and mama-figures out there!

dress - swapped // jacket – H&M // shoes – Sears // clutch, belt – thrifted

    I love the “alone” part of that gift!!!! It’s funny that on Mothers day a nice gift is to do something without the kids :)

      Is there a glow there? It might be sweat from all the running around that happened before pictures!
