Chevron Dress: Ruche, Belt: Gift, Tights: gift, Leopard Smoking Flats: Threadsence, Arm Candy: Francesca's, Lucca

This is an example of what I call "going together". I have had many the talk, particularly with guys  ( Mr. Darcy, my brother, my dad, etc.), explaining the difference between "matching" and "going together". Apparently I haven't done a very good job of explaining, because I still get looks and comments on my outfits. Whatever, you know you guys are just jealous.
So how was every one's Val-Day? Mr. Darcy got me the lovely tights I have on in these pictures. The boy forgoes flowers for clothing. He knows me so well.

We decided this year that Val-Day wouldn't be a big celebration, because we are taking a vacation next month!!! One month from today we shall be heading to San Francisco for a fun little vacay with my sister and brother in law. I can't wait!!! This will be our first US vacation to take together! If you know of any fantastic places we should go to, let me know!!!

    I adore that dress. You make it all look so fabulous...but I could never pull it off! People would take my picture and put me on that website with the poor souls wearing denim tuxedos at Walmart. :)

    This outfit is SO cute! I L-O-V-E that dress, and also that you've trained the hubs to get you clothing instead of flowers - pretty awesome :)
