Late this morning my mom, sister and I headed to the mall to visit a boutique that was having a mother of the bride trunk show.
We parked outside of Nordstrom and as we walked through the store to get to the boutique in the mall, we got a little sidetracked by these beauties:
How gorgeous would these be as wedding shoes?
Sadly they come with a $400 price tag, so these pretty little shoes were placed right back on the stand. 😉
After the shoe fun, we headed to Cici’s Boutique to look at the mother of the bride dresses they had in stock as part of their trunk show.
They had a lot of dresses to look at, but many looked too matronly and a little dated. I think we all envision my mom in something shorter and more fun.
My mom, sister and I all really liked this dress:
The dress comes with a beautiful shawl as well.
We’re not sure if this is the dress she’ll wear, but it’s in the running!
On our way back out to our car, we made a pit stop into Victoria’s Secret for their semi-annual sale (which Ryan calls their bi-weekly sale because it seems to happen every other week).
I’m always amazed at some of the stuff they sell in there!
Large sparkly beading on the side of underwear doesn’t exactly scream comfort (or sexy) to me…
Lunch
All that shopping made us hungry!
We came home and made imitation crab meat salad sandwiches. On the side I enjoyed broccoli slaw with ginger dressing, fresh pineapple and peanuts in the shell.
Peanuts in the shell are such a treat! They make me feel like I’m at a baseball game or something.
I’m off to get some sun outside and read the second Percy Jackson book. Days off of work sure are niiiice. 😉
