"Man Repelling" Outfit for Girls Night!

Amber made me a Hello Kitty bracelet!

 

 

 

 

A group of 4 friends and I met up on Friday night in Cincinnati.  A road trip with friends doesn't happen too often now that we're in our mid 20's.  Not to mention that three of the girls are engaged and one is expecting her first baby.  We all have our own lives, so it's nice when we make time for a night out with the girls - no boys!!

Since one of my best friends moved to Cinci, I enjoy any time that I get to spend with her.  But, a night away from the boo-thing and a night out with the girls means I over think what to wear.  I wanted something girly, something feminine, something "man repelling" but still had to look fashionable in front of my friends (can't grab drinks in yoga pants - or can you?!).  One glance at this maxi dress from Target and I knew it was a no brainer!  I loved the way it mixed patterns so I could effortlessly put this outfit together. I felt conservative, although, there was a space in the back that showed a midriff. People thought it was two separates pieces!

Being that it was Friday, the 13th and we were in Newport, we were not disappointed in the entertainment of other bar hoppers.  From the unknown girl booty popping on us to the blonde with cornrows, thanks for coming out!  To the UC student who told us that we "probably wake  up at 5am and eat a 'senior breakfast'", I hope you don't kiss your mother with that mouth!

Our entire night reminded me of Jenna Marbles' "How to Avoid Talking to People You Don't Want To Talk to" skit - "Can't you see? We're having a girls night!"

Open Mic Night - Round 2

We played at an open mic – our second show.  At the first one, we didn’t tell anybody about it except for our close friends who are really into music. We felt pretty confident after that performance so we’re more comfortable inviting all of our friends (soo, you guys should come!!! We play Wednesday's at various locations). 

Our regular fans - the friends/family who came to our last show - were busy and couldn’t attend this time.   I was worried nobody would be there to take pics - obviously, a very crucial point for an aspiring blogger!  L As a surprise, two of my besties, Amber and Lydia, showed up to support us – Amber drove from Cincinnati and surprised me to tears!  I was extremely happy that they were there (and could record some audio for us- except for the unfortunate event that I was sitting directly under the spotlight which completely washed me out). 

The bar was a Rock N Roll theme so I wore the only band shirt I own – Red Hot Chili Peppers.  I paired it with my leather leggings and a black blazer.  I added my silver pumps and silver necklace for some color.  The weather was nasty and raining so up in a bun went my hair.
