Silver and Black

Today’s post title is inspired by the silver and black detail of my dress. I found this gorgeous dress at the Shop it Like It’s Hot event hosted by Chictopia back in January. I tried the dress on and was wearing these wedges. I felt like it was a match made in heaven because of all the sparkle! 

I wore this dress to celebrate Mando’s 24th birthday! He dressed up and wore a grey long sleeve shirt and classic black slacks. I wanted to match and choose this dress because it felt very dressy but also perfect for the warm weather. We spent the morning at the Farmer’s Market in Jack London Square and made our way to Lake Merritt. We both took photos together to use for a project he is working on for class. This specific photo shoot was done at Lake Merritt, but being in the East Bay made me also think of the team colors of the Oakland Raiders. Most football teams have great color combinations, and the Oakland Raiders team is no exception. All throughout winter I wore this color combo and I love that I can still translate it into my Spring wardrobe.

I am looking forward to wearing more dresses (and open-toed heels!) in bright colors for Spring. What are you looking forward to wearing this Spring with the warmer weather? Let me know with a comment below and share your latest look too!
