Black and White (x2)

Last week I went into the city for a couple of events and meetings. I decided to the spend the night (at The Plaza, it was so dreamy) so I wouldn’t have to make the Connecticut commute. It’s fun to have a little staycation and pretend like I still live there for a night or two.

After a few meetings and shoots on Monday afternoon, I met up with the Tuckernuck team and a few other bloggers for a dinner party! It was so much fun. Instead of just having a sit-down meal, it was also a cooking class. We did just the right amount of cooking (i.e., very little) and socializing (i.e., a lot).

I picked out an outfit from Tuckernuck to wear to the event. Bell sleeves were probably not the best idea for a cooking class, but I’m happy to report that I came home with a still-perfectly-white shirt.

Carter and I filmed a little video from the night!

I love how simple the outfit is (white tee, black jeans), but the bell sleeves on the shirt elevate it just enough. I’m all about it.

I couldn’t resist these white statement earrings too.

When I go on overnight trips, I try to pack as lightly as possible. I knew I would be wearing the first outfit for the Tuckernuck dinner, so I quickly packed a second outfit for the next day based on the black shoes. I didn’t realize until I looked in the mirror as I got dressed that I packed the exact reverse! White jeans and a black bell-sleeved top.

I had to share the photos in the same post because I thought it was so funny. I’m obviously very creative when it comes to my outfits.
