Transition Day to Date
Today I’m joining Rachel and Astleigh for a little Day to Date linkup showing you how I would take an outfit from daytime to a date night with my favorite dimpled man.
I purchased this dress last fall to wear to a wedding and it hung in my closet thereafter. I hated seeing this beautiful material go to waste!
Flash forward to “no spend September” and I was all about spending a little time shopping my closet instead of my money shopping online!
I grabbed black booties and my blue jacket and seriously I may have heard angels sing when I looked in the mirror! I love how this came together and y’all….I wore this to work!
When I first received these BP booties I thought they were cute but I wasn’t head over heels for them. They sat in the box for two months as I debated whether or not to keep them. I have to tell you I would have been totally missing out because not only are they adorable but they are super comfortable.
Drop the blue jean jacket and booties and add a nice pair of heels and you will be ready for date night! I love these shoes and they are probably one of the most commented on pieces I have shown here. I found two pair from the same designer and, while not exactly like mine, they are very similar and on sale here & here! I was shocked to see them back in stock as last time I checked nothing similar was available. It’s not often I find a heel that is both classy and comfortable and these are both!
Beware, however, you may knock your husbands socks off!
Shop this look!

That is a stunning lace LBD and definitely worth wearing again which I am glad you did. Both outfits are great and I am dying over the second pair of booties and both options you linked. Hot Hot Hot!!
What a gorgeous dress! I am glad you found a way to wear it more casually, it's way to pretty for it to be sitting in a closet.
Thank you for joining TBT Fashion link up and hope to see you next week.

Thanks Pinky! Every once in awhile I love being a little girlier than usual and the lace always does the trick.
