I had the most amazing day yesterday – packed full of everything I love – from a good, leisurely work out, to great burgers and margaritas, to a wonderful dinner out, all in the company of my wonderful family.
My Husband is becoming quite a pro at choosing great birthday cards. As one of my friends said it really is a gift to have the patience to search through sappy cards for the perfect card for the recipient! If you haven’t seen the Honey Badger viral video this won’t mean anything to you!
After an indulgent glass of prosecco we headed off for a leisurely lunch at our favorite burger joint. It was hot as hades here yesterday so I decided to wear my TopShop cami for the first time. I really do love the cut and fabric of these tops and I’ll be buying more – they drape perfectly with no clinging. I was switched on to them by lovely Eve at AllWornOut and Jane at MyMidlifeFashion. Fortunately TopShop is now easily available here from Nordstrom! The creases fell out as soon as it was exposed to the Atlanta humidity!
Top – TopShop Cami // Skirt – J.Crew Factory (old) // Sandals – Zara
Later that evening my Husband took me to The Optimist for the first time. What an amazing restaurant. It was busy so the service was a little tardy but we were in no hurry and I relished my oysters! It’s a huge, open restaurant and I loved the noise created by the acoustics. In a strange way it reminded me of Harrods food hall or even Quaglinos, though I haven’t been there since the early 90s!
I felt fabulous in my Zara flowing jumpsuit (sold out but similar here). I actually bought this and returned it once thinking I’d never wear it – but it was such a perfect fit I re-bought it and I am so glad I did! I went full ’70s for this baby of August ’71 with big hair and white heels (now on sale here!).
So that’s the birthday done and dusted for another year – here’s to a great one – and happy birthday to all my fellow Leos!
