OOTD: I like my clothes how I like my wine...

...light and bright. This past weekend I went to a winery west of Boston with some girlfriends. I love checking out different vineyards/wineries in the area. Especially since it'll be a while before I make it to Napa Valley :o( The winery was a blast. Surprisingly I didn't come home with any wine (crazy I know). After tasting 10 different wines there just wasn't anything I absolutely loved. Never the less it was still great seeing my friends, plus we went to Max Brenner (diet? what diet?) for dinner and dessert after. Yum yum YUM!

I wanted something light and fun for my adventure with the fermented grape. These are the same jeans and tee worn in the 'OOTD - Bright Night' post. While I am questioning the blue pants I am in love with the lilac. The screen really doesn't show the true color; they are oh so lovely. The tee underneath (another Gap find) is actually brighter than it photographs, more like a neon yellow as opposed to the soft yellow that's pictured.

OOTD - Bright Night

Trivia time! I've just discovered my love for trivia. My neighbors and I have formed a team (we're still working on a team name) and we've been hitting different bars on different nights to find our favorite place. Luckily we live in a part of Boston where trivia is obsessive popular so we can try different places on different nights. Granted we've never won, but it's a lot of fun, and I feel like the years I spent watching The Discovery Channel and episodes of Jeopardy can finally pay off!


On this night I wore my first pair of colored denim since I outgrew my green jeans in the sixth grade. They are Gap's skimmer jean. I bought them in this color and lilac (that post will come later). I love the fit - tight without being constricting. Side note - If you're interested in purchasing I would say they are TTS. If you are in between a size though I would err on the side of smaller. They will stretch with wear. The only thing I am personally questioning is the color. It is really really really bright. I thought it was closer to a turquoise (which is what the website depicts), but it's actually a pool blue.  Almost too bright for my liking. I'm still debating whether or not I want to keep this color - what do you guys think?
