Pre-Valentines/Valentine's Day Style File

Happy Presidents Day to you all! I hope everyone enjoyed their Valentines Day weekend. I made sure I enjoyed my weekend considering it was two-fold. It was Valentines and it was mine and my husband's 1 year wedding anniversary. Once again he surprised amd and did it big!! Apparently some years back I told him to go big or go home and now it seems to be burned into his brain. Not that I mind or anything, it definetly keeps me one very spoiled loved woman.

Saturday night we went out to Chilis for dinner and I wore the outfit above. I bought this dress at the mall on Friday but unfortunately it doesn't look so hot on me by itself so i had to find a great way to layer it. I received this scarf from a lady I used to go to church with years and years ago. She said she could never figure out what to do with and she gave it to me (that honestly happens to me quite a lot so like Tim Gunn says, I make it work). This scarf has been worn as a skirt, has been decorative around my house, and now has worked as a top!! I love it but again sometimes run out of ideas to use it. I really enjoyed this outfit for sure. Before dinner my husband surprised me with not just 1 but 3 rings that I really wanted from Lia Sophia!! 1 of the rings is going to be an interm wedding ring while he gets my wedding rings re-dipped. Its beautiful and big of course. I will be posting pictures later.

Since yesterday was our anniversry we did quite a lot!! We met up with my parents for a little lunch and spent some quality time with them. After lunch we went to the mall and walked around and then went to see a movie with my brother-in-law and his girlfriend. The movie was great even though I didn't suspect it would be any good at all. We saw....The Book of Eli!! Before and during the movie antics was hilarious though and Im just glad we made it out without a fight breaking out. After that me and the hubs came home to spend some quality time together. The other outfit is below and the jean shirt is the new one that I just bought on Friday as well! Well all, I will gab at you later!! Enjoy the rest of your day if you have it off!!

Fashionably Yours!
