Last week, my boyfriend and I decided to go out to a nice dinner with some of his graduation money. Of course, I took this as a reason to get dressed up! A couple of days before, I had randomly found an amazing LBD on a sales rack at Charlotte Russe - voilà! Here's some of the detail on the dress to give you an idea of the beautiful-ness I was working with:
The restaurant is called Antipasto's and specializes in vegetarian fare. But carnivores, fear not - their pasta and pizza is supposed to be out of this world, too. I've been vegetarian for almost 2 years, a reason why my boyfriend had mentioned this place to me a few months back and I'd fallen in love with the menu online. Since fashion is so much more than clothing, and can be about atmosphere, too, I wanted to share a little about this place, and how perfect the dress felt floating around me as I ate and laughed.
Well, we were a little overdressed - my dress was quite nice and he wore a shirt, tie, and nice dress pants. The restaurant was very small, snuggled in between stores in a Price Chopper strip mall plaza. It could fit maybe 20 people, and supposedly is known for it's very extensive wine collection (maybe in a few years). I had veggie chicken parmesan, which was amazing because since becoming vegetarian I haven't been able to experience the taste of a good chicken parmesan in almost 2 years. The lights were very dim and it was cozy. I loved it! And more than that, a good LBD can really amp up a low-key night. Just dinner and a movie - made special. Why not dress up for no good reason?
