Fancy time!

Last night I attended a fundraising gala for my employer. The theme was "roll out the red carpet," and I had a fantastic time getting all dolled up for the event. Prepare to be dazzled by my crap self-photography (my photographer husband was elsewhere so I had to make do):

I loooove this dress. I borrowed it from my friend Amanda, and I want to keep it just to walk around and feel like a rockstar. It is at once sleek and vintagey, and it was super comfortable and perfect for when I became a dancing fiend after dinner. I also felt fierce in the shoes, until they started hurting about an hour into the evening and I hobbled more than strutted. Four inch heels on a girl who usually wears flats = lots of teeth gritting.

Back home at the end of the night: bonding time with the dog.
