Weekend Fun: Dinner with friends

It’s kind of funny that people tend to think fashion bloggers seem to shop all the time. On more than one occasion, people have asked me what do I do on the weekend besides shopping. I don’t always go shopping on the weekend especially not every weekend. I do things like a typical person would do such as cooking, running errands, hanging out with my family/friends on the weekend. This is a personal style blog so a majority of my posts are fashion-related. It doesn’t mean that shopping is all I do. However, to add a bit of variety to this blog, I want to dedicate Sunday’s posts to highlight one thing that I did that weekend.


This weekend, my husband and I went out to dinner with Danielle and her husband. It was such a great pleasure to meet both of them. Danielle chose Abuelo's and it was a fantastic choice. The food was yummy and the service was great. We chatted like old friends. Thank you so much for a great night, Danielle. We hope to hang out with you guys again soon. I am wearing a newly purchase dress from Express. I love it so much! Will do a proper review for this dress later this week.

What I am wearing:
Dress: Express striped dress - size XS (buy here)
Sandals: Steve Madden (buy similar here)
Purse: Chanel small flap (buy similar here)

Readers, what did you do this weekend =)?

lol, I feel like shopping is my only hobby when I have free time, so I'll be the guilty one who does nothing but shops (since I have no hubby or kids and such) :) That black-white stripe dress looks amazing on you! Can't wait to see the full review!

@Callandra It's funny that you're noticing her shoes too. "I love your shoes" was the first thing I told her =)
