… that’s how long my husband has survived matrimony with yours truly (and, coincidentally, how long this blog has been around). And this is the outfit I wore for a quick date night to celebrate said anniversary. (Love ya, babe!) It’s one of my favourite dresses, updated with a brand new pair of fancy schmancy shoes. Oh, and a return to lipgloss, because I turn into a 13-year old in the make-up aisle at Superstore, apparently.

The shoes are surprisingly comfortable for such strappy, highs-heeled contraptions — which is to say that I could walk in them for about an hour before they started to hurt. That’s … pretty good, all things considered. I was honestly surprised. Why would I buy shoes which I expected would hurt my feet? Good question, but see exhibit A: they are yellow; and Exhibit B: they are cute. I feel like I can rest my case now, yes?

As a bonus, here are a few of the other times I wore this dress.

  1. Happy anniversary! Beautiful dress too. I hope you don’t mind if I mention this, but it looks like you’ve lost at least 10lbs since 2013. You looked great then and now though!

    • Thanks šŸ™‚ I have lost a bunch of weight; that first pic is from a few months after I gave birth to my daughter.

  2. Congratulations on 6 years! šŸ™‚ I love the dress and I understand about the shoes. I have less comfortable shoes as well for fancy occasions. I also love lipgloss; David’s Tea now makes really pretty tea flavoured lipglosses. I had to pick up a few for the summer.
