Bright Royal Blue for our Wedding Anniversary


 

Hello and welcome!
 Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today

The outfit in this post is special,
 because I am wearing it in commemoration 
our wedding anniversary
 On March 18th, Roger and I celebrated 28 years of marriage
Hard to believe this many years have flown by, but it's true!
I wish I could go back and do it all over again,
 from our very first meeting
If you are interested in hearing a little about our wedding
 and some pictures from it,
 I talk about it in the post 
titled "Wedding Anniversary" from last year
Also, there is a little bit about our serendipitous meeting
 in my post titled "New Year's Eve", on December 31st, 2023,
Do you have any first date,
 wedding or anniversary stories to share?

Outfit details
The yolk and sleeves of this dress are so pretty
 and really make the dress special!
They are made of semi sheer lace,
 with lots of overlapping 3-D fabric flowers
  from the neckline to the bottom of the sleeve. Each flower is attached with a bead in the center in the same color as the dress and the petals

 



I love the pretty details! 










I'm carrying a blingy little red leather bag
 from the 80's, with multicolor rhinestones riveted to the flap
It has a strap tucked inside
 and can be worn crossbody as well


For jewelry I chose some silver tone bobbles
 that seemed right for the dress
 A multi layer spiral wrap bracelet with spheres all around,
 like planets in orbit, and teardrop shaped earrings


Some special shoes, too!
 I think these are really adorable in bright multicolor fabric
 with a beaded buckle decoration
I took a chance and ordered these,
 and usually this brand is a good fit for me,
 but cute as they are, they are not terribly comfortable,
 even though the heel is quite low


Roger's neck tie blends really well in reds, blues and grey



Here's to spending many more happy years together!
🎉💖🥂🎊



Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

Congratulations on your anniversary! If I ever reach 28 years of marriage I'll be 78! Your purple dress is a great choice for celebrating, those sleeves are so special.

Happy anniversary! What a great day to remember right! Gerben and I were together in January for 33 years! We celebrated it with going out for dinner!
