Anniversary Date Night



  





{Leopard Dress ~ Thrifted {is actually a long skirt} / Gold Stretch Belt ~ Vintage.Thrifted / Gold Flats ~ Sam Edelman / Assorted Gold Crystal Bangles ~  KJL and Chamak, Black Enamel Bangles ~ Thrifted / Huge Gold Doorknockers ~ Vintage.Thrifted / Black Leather Handbag {folded over as a clutch} ~ Cole Haan}

Today is our 7th wedding anniversary and we celebrated last night; going on an amazing date night in the city.  We had originally made reservations at a stuffy swanky restaurant, but quickly changed our minds and decided to stroll around the city and find a fun spot to dine Al fresco.  Which was actually the perfect idea since I wanted to wear this sweet leopard skirt-turned-dress that I recently thrifted.  It was also quite warm {which is why I decided to chop off 4 inches of my hair, as I was getting ready} so I wanted to go simple/casual/cool.  Flats were definitely in order since I knew we were going to be walking. 

We had the perfect dinner at an amazing little restaurant in Manayunk and enjoyed frozen yogurt with delicious toppings for dessert.  Yummy food, great conversation, sitting across from my funny, smart, and perfectly handsome husband? What more can a girl ask for? :)


Here are few pictures taken with my iPhone, using the Instagram app:
