Gingham girl

Obsessed with gingham & plaid, I tell ya!

I wore this shirt to work with a pair of jeans and flats, but decided to dress it up a bit with a skirt and heels for a dinner and movie date with the Pirate.  We ate at one of our fave little restaurants, Penne Pasta.  While at dinner we both decided to keep our cellphones out of reach, so that we could really enjoy our time together; talk to each other, rather than tweeting, instagraming, or FB-ing our little date.  Haha.  With technology and social networking literally at our fingertips these days, we can easily get wrapped up in cyber world, when the real world is passing us by.  The Pirate and I always have a great time together, but last night was extra fun.  As corny as it sounds, date nights are important in relationships.  It's a great opportunity to reconnect with your partner. :)

These orange platforms are another great pair that MyHotShoes sent me.  I don't have any orange shoes, so I thought this pair would be a great addition to my shoe collection.  I swear it feels like you're walking on a cloud in these babies.  They are super lightweight.  The platform makes it's a breeze to walk in, too.  Don't forget, my readers get 20% off (promo code: SHARON2) any pair of shoe or shoes you want from MyHotShoes.  There are tons of great summer sandals to choose from!
