two more days of outfit posts from the september trip to montelucia resort and spa in scottsdale for my birthday celebration. it was the party that wouldn't end. on this particular night the hubby wanted to take me out for a romantic dinner and a night in scottsdale. as I've said many times, I love me and all black ensemble. since it cools down in the desert at night this was the perfect way to go. the tunic was still light enough, though it was black, for an end of the summer evening. of course, to dress it up I added some big chunky rockstar type accessories. I've been wearing my hair up because I'm trying to let the dark color grow in for the winter and I still haven't decided dark I want to go. needless to say, when I wear it down its like "root city". anyways, after a delicious sushi dinner (veggie and mock for me) we did some late night swimming and hot tubbing with a bottle of champagne since the pools at the resort are open twenty four hours. such a relaxing trip. happy start of the week to you all. I hope it brings you positive things, as always. :)

friday is here and I am looking forward to the next few days. the hubby, for once, has BOTH weekend days off. it so unusual when you work as a federal agent for this to happen, but it has. :) I can't wait to do normal couple type things like having breakfast together, going to the gym, working around the house, hanging with our dogs... just usual boring stuff. but I can't wait. is that incredibly dorky of me? we used to spend our weekends out in the city, and now we can be found at home depot and the dog park. oh age... sigh. anyways, this outfit is another SF outfit. as you can see it was still freezing there despite it being summer. is it wrong how much I adore almost all black outfits? seriously, I feel so chic in them. so chic in fact that I have to wear sun glasses when it is obviously over cast. you know what I mean. happy weekend all, and come back next week for the last summer give away during my birthday week!

happy thursday! another san francisco post today. make sure to check out the other posts this week...day one and day two and comment to enter the sf goodies give away. there will be one more post on friday (bay to breakers, finally!) and I will announce the winner on monday :). as for this outfit, I rocked the mostly black look for a night in the city. my friend, caitlin, and I took bart into sf to see peter pan three-sixty. the production was straight from london and it was the first showing in the U.S. which we thought was pretty amazing. the theater was specially built right on the embarcadero in justin herman plaza just for this show. the outside was built up on wooden planks to feel like a pirate ship, and came complete with a "hundred year history of peter pan" museum. we snacked on bread bowls and wine before the show and enjoyed the sun going down over the water. the white tent was a tiny venue but allowed the actors to seem to be really flying. take a look at their website, it really is some interesting stuff. as for the show, it was such a fun experience! it was a small theater and there was a ton of interaction with the show. I have always loved this story and this was a fantastic retelling of a classic. if you are in the bay area, it is a must do this summer. :)
