I distinctly remember being 10 years old and my mom had on a pair of lace up espadrilles. I really liked them because they were #MediterraneanVibes meet ballet. By the time I was old enough to wear heels, they were out of style * sad face * Recently I discovered that the trend is back and better than ever! I love all the variations (and colors) that have surfaced. You can find the ones I’m wearing in this post at The Mint Julep Boutique. Keep reading for tips on styling a summer date night outfit.
My bestest friend in whole world – I call her the sister I got to pick – Michelle – came to visit me this past weekend. We totally gorged on amazing vegan food, did some touristing in Seattle, and of course squeezed in a little photoshoot because she’s an amazing photographer (and the photographer behind this post). If you’re in the Davis/Sacramento area, visit her website here.
BTW: And get ready to see a lot more of her/ her work on the blog once I move to the Bay Area. She’s already ready to become P&P’s primary photographer. #GetExcited!
More about the look:
I wore this ” summer date night outfit” with the girls. It tends to get chilly in the evenings here in Seattle, so I went with a long sleeve sweater-shirt. I’ve also been super into the ‘millennial pink’ color lately as you can tell by my shirt, shoes, and sunglasses! LOL.
I love the versatility – it also works for brunch, a date with bae, and really anything you need to take from day to night.
