I have been a bad blogger this week. I just haven't found the time to blog but I'm trying to make up for it now!
I was very fortunate to be able to attend Barbara Bush's Celebration of Reading event this past Thursday. Many members of the Bush family attended and George W. Bush read excerpts from his book, "Decision Points." I enjoyed all of the authors there that evening and especially look forward to reading "Picking Cotton," by Jennifer Thompson-Cannino and Ronald Cotton. Water for Elephants author Sara Gruen was also supposed to be there, but she fell ill.
For this event, I wore my new lace dress from White House Black Market that I got on sale at the outlet for under $40.

Friday night, my H and I went to the Ke$ha concert @ Verizon. It made me feel old. There were all these teens there with their parents and all of the girls had colorful eye makeup on, bright clothes, lace tights and glitter there everywhere---on clothes, faces, bodies, hair. I guess I missed the memo.
I opted for comfy clothes because I literally woke up from a nap, threw them on and went to the concert. I was up at 3am Friday morning WATCHING THE ROYAL WEDDING, so you can imagine I was exhausted. I can't even blog about that right now because I am still stunned by the whole thing and need time to gather my thoughts. SO amazing.

Finally, today's outfit also included the same top as above (I had only worn it for just over an hour at the concert). I had my hair colored and cut today, but these photos were taken prior to that. Then, I had lunch at Gigi's Asian Bistro with Candice and did a little shopping (more to come on that). Tonight my H and are going out for dinner for a friend's birthday. Yum!
Necklace- Tiffany & Co.
