I love this outfit so much I wore it twice in one week! I wore it to an event at BHLDN in chicago with the lovely Kirstin. Then, I wore it to the Peter Pan ballet performed by the milwaukee ballet 
Both events were lovely and it was nice to spend some time in the city.
What do you get dressed up for?

I made this necklace last week from Jenni's book I Spy - DIY. It's made from gold painted straws.. can you believe it?!
We had a DIY day at my house a few days ago and we made this necklace and another really pretty necklace and my sister and I taught my husband and mom to knit. My heart was so full that day. Family time full of knitting and crafting. Perfect.
