This past Friday Mr. Monkey and myself had our second date night since Oliver was born. Our first was to his work holiday party and I forgot to take pictures of my outfit that day. Our date this last Friday was more fun anyway - it was our annual trek to Winterfest - which is basically Craft Beer Lovers Christmas. Almost 40 of our local breweries were on hand handing out 2 oz samples of their best stuff. I took the opportunity to get a little dolled up!
We had a great time while my kind in-laws watched Oliver for us. There were just so many kinds of beer, it was easy to get a little overwhelmed, but we have a good system - we each get a different one from each place and then share. It works out pretty well!
Sweater - Swap
T-shirt - White House Black Market, from cousin
Skirt - Mossimo, Target
Leggings - Target
Boots - DSW
Purse - Rouge and Whimsy
My favorite beer of the night was a Vanilla Cold Press Porter from a brewery that is based in Duluth, Minnesota. It was so good. Also, I have to laugh at my pictures - there is a beer box behind me - appropriate I suppose - but also Oliver's swing....hmm, what does that say about me?
Cute outift! Glad you had fun at Winterfest - where was that beer from in Duluth? I love the swing and the beer in the picture (a child brought up right....LOL!!!)
